FOX NEWS NEEDS TO BE MORE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT THEY ASK FOR

 

Like many others at Fox, Elisabeth Hasselbeck tries, but fails, to present herself as a legitimate journalist.

The Fox Network thought they had a great idea in ringing out the old year by asking their viewers to tell Fox what they were “over” and what they did not want to see or hear in the coming year.  They then used their sexy Ms. Elisabeth Hasselbeck to kick the event off with the following Tweet: “I’m over all the attacks against Christianity!”

Yessiree, those relentless attacks on Christianity really have to stop.

Thousands of Fox viewers and twitter users got in on the fun and responded, appropriately.

 

However, it didn’t quite go the way that Fox management had planned.

Here is just a small selection of the thousands of Tweets they received:

·       I’m over @FoxNews pretending to be a real news organization and not a racists, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, conservative PR machine.

·       @Fox&Friends I’m over idiotic Fox pundits lying, then throwing privilege tantrums and getting paid for it.

·       I’m over Fox: fake wars, fake fears, fake patriotism, fake stories,  fake blondes, fake Christians, fake outrage, and Benghazi’     

·       Over Fox News pretending to be anything but right wing propaganda and for Hasselbeck being taken seriously.

·       I am sick of Fox News having the memory of a Goldfish after their comments have been proven wrong.       

·       I am over @FoxNews telling the bubble dwellers that $1.99 gasoline is a bad thing.      

·       One tweet had a picture of a hand-made Tea Party poster that said the following, and yes, this is the poster’s actual spelling:

“Do I look like I want to surve in Obama’s Nazi Yooth Militia?

Arrest our Comminist, Racist, Facsist, Lying, President NOW for treason!!!”

But the actual tweet said:  “I’m over the [above] poor illiteracy of these Right-Wing Tea-baggers who can’t spell “patriotism” or any other words with multiple syllables.”

·       The next Tweet had a picture of Sarah Palin.  The Tweet said: “Has-been Republican racists never go away, they just go on, and on and….”      

·       Over Faux “News” complete denial of facts AND the bubble-dwellers who soak it up.       

·       Over bigotry disguised as “Religious Freedom”.       

·       Over Fox propaganda pretending to be “Journalism” in defense of a fascistic/corporatist plutocracy.       

·       I’m over Right-Wing patriots who say “We never leave a man behind,” until a Democratic president brings home a POW.       

·       I’m against White People that think black people have to die if they challenge police asking why they were detained.       

·       I’m over dangerous, incompetent, corrupt, low-information fundamentalists GOP hacks hurting America.       

·       Over the right, pushing for less science in schools, blaming tornados on Gays, denying that 55° in December in Michigan is climate change.        

·       And finally, “Fox News being treated as a legitimate news source.”

Nuff said.
