say what you want about the obvious bias, when it was not democrats in charge these people were not calling for secessions and rebellions against a supposed "tyrrany."

thats what the right doesn't seem to get - most of us are looking at their bullshit and asking outselves, what the fuck drugs are these people on? it wasn't so with liberal activists, quite simply because they didn't spend their time calling for revolutions and such. they were engaged with grassroots efforts to do symbolic and ultimately meaningless things to send a message... but it was never a threat.

some minority probably did call for executions of the president or whatever the fuck (any minority of a minority tends to be extreme enough to pull such crazy shit), but the right and their voicebox (fnc) doing this is not helping them at all with the majority view.

as much as i hate the right-wing punditry stirring their shit, i secretly hope they keep doing it and lose election after election to regular people who are afraid - as a result of this shit - that the right wing is insane and will destroy the country.

i say this as a libertarian... healthy dissent is good and the intelligent articulation of dissent is even better, but if the dissent has no purpose or logic and is simply placed behind extremist shouts suggesting a violent uprising, it becomes indistinguishable from jihad movements.

kudos to the right for their well-developed voicebox. too bad they didn't spend any money to understand how to deliver a message that wouldn't make normal people want to vomit.

IF YOUR BASE WAS ENOUGH TO RETAIN CONTROL, YOU WOULD STILL BE IN CONTROL.

He's been to Peggy's Cove...for a plane crash.



You know, we should all try to pressure FNC to replace O'Reilly with Shepard Smith at Primetime.

Since when is the government going to take away your right to defend yourself?

The entire FNC should be taken off the air, quite frankly. They take any little gun control law and puff it up as if the government is on your front lawn and you're gonna defend yourself with a flyswatter because knives are illegal. It's not just Beck, it's all those cowards.

If they want to inspire opposition to the left, then I'm fine with it. But inspiring fear, paranoia, and encouraging the ignorant and paranoid to be as well armed as possible is extremely close to insurrection or treason.

After years of calling everyone who isn't right of Bill Oreilly traitors who hate our country, they are now literally acting like traitors and pretty openly hate the President on a daily basis. Irresponsible and insane.

I'm going to go out on a separate limb here (I know months old). The chant was most likely started by someone who watched FNC and perhaps like minded friends nearby. They exercised their free speech and the message was that FNC had been perceived to them as a lameduck-mouthpiece; FNC was trying to cover tabloid aliens/e.t.s as they premeditatedly sought/saw the protesters as; the nonnatives responded to the xenophobes: FUCK FAUX NEWS.

If there's one thing these FNC anchors know about, it's vulgar and ugly comments.

(and yet another reason why I should move to Canada)

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

^ Much as it pains me - I have to admit that MSNBC is just as biased as FNC. These two channels are not news at all - more like competing OpEd stations.

Of course I watch MSNBC because I agree with it. Just like heartlanders watch FNC.

I can't help but think that both of these stations are just playing sycophantically to our comfort spots.

MSNBC is owned by GE, FOX by Rupert Murdoch's NewsCorp. There is only one thing that both of these companies care about ... hint ... it's not journalistic integrity.

Every time some kid shoots up his school and kills himself, I always wonder... why not shoot up FNC instead?

Sigh. no justice in this world.

Update from TPM: E.D.'s show is being cancelled. Maybe because she wasn't pushing the terrorist card hard enough?

Do you love how this is an "Alert" for FNC?

What a complete joke this is. I agree %100 with TLH here, electing people who believe in supernatural powers has got to end, or else we are facing this kind of shit in endless rotation.

[never mind]

FNC is nauseating.

Here's how TV Newser covered it:

And Alex Jones says he was merely "filming a documentary":

Yes. The same scene also had him grabbing his crotch.

A Wikipedia article cites an article from FOXNews:

"Later in 1991, Michael released his next album, "Dangerous." It debuted at No. 1 and sold 29 million copies worldwide. Its lead single, "Black or White," caused controversy as the video had scenes considered violent and sexual (including Michael grabbing his crotch) and was banned from most music-television channels until several scenes were edited out."

Hasn't aired yet, this is a preview - I think FNC is running an episode or two of it this weekend. I don't see it lasting very long, even on that piece-of-shit network.

Well Theo, at least Choggie knows he's crazy, QM is just delusional.

I love his arguments against Obama... hard finding something to say that would not come off blantanly racist again so you pick on the man's ears? And Ted Kennedy? Weak!

Shit I think your Grand Master Rush Limbaugh and FNC just can't muster good enough arguements for you anymore!

FNC is still comfortably ahead in the 25-54 demographic. I think that they draw more women than CNN as well.

FNC programs just have better graphics, prettier anchorbots, and their deeply, deeply cynical approach works. They manufacture news and spurious opinion so you don't have to.
