A "fair and balanced" aim.


Like I wasn't going to blog about this story. Hell as much as I hate the folks over at Radio Rwanda and their 24 hour hate fest, do you really think I wasn't going to talk about their latest little production? Sheeeet.

See that picture I posted up there above you to your left? That is what the folks at FOX had up on their new web site, FOX NATION, recently. Now I have to confess: I am not one of these people who see subliminal messages and conspiracy theories at every turn. But this one......I don't know FOX, this shit isn't even subliminal.

I have to give credit to the folks over at RAW STORY for exposing FOX's latest fuck you to his O ness. Hey, at least some of us are watching.

Now honestly, this is A-murder-ca, and the folks at FOX should have every First Amendment right that is afforded the rest of us. But where do you draw the line? I am sure you have heard this before: But you can't yell fire in a crowded theater. FOX has millions of fans who are of a certain....well, ahhm, how do I say this? Hell there is no nice way to say it: They have a bunch of red-neck gun toting crazies, who watch them 24/7, who hang on there every word, and who would love nothing more than to bust a cap in that skinny nigger with the Muslim name's ass. So yes, I do think they are being just a little bit irresponsible. The theater is way too crowded right about now.

But that's just me, field, the FOX hater, writing. I am sure that some of you really believe that they are"fair and balanced". You believe that the gun pointing at the president's head was purely coincidental. Just wait, tomorrow they might have one pointing at the First Lady's head. I guess that will be their interpretation of "fair and balanced".



Hat tip to my man, Greg Williams, for e-mailing this story to me.

This is why I stopped watching Fox news when Obama announced he was running. And as much as I love Shawn Yancy, I'm gonna have to add the local station to my protest list as well.

Hey Field they did this last year. They had a flyer with a left handed rifle pointed at his head.Left handed rifles are very expensive.So the photo was reversed.You can tell it's left handed because the bolt is no the left side.I got the picture up now.

The local Mexican paper printed a picture of Monica Lewinski with her mouth open and next to her was a picture of a passenget jet from another story. The pictures were scaled of course to be suggestive.

So now you are comparing FOX NEWS to radio rwanda?You're really comparing a government media that promoted violence before and during the genocide in Rwanda?

I guess only question is if Obama will ignore the FOX NEWS lead violence and genocide like Clinton ingore the genocide in Rwanda?


The only gun that you should be worried about is the one Obama has pointed at our heads.Obama is on the verge of blowing away everything this country stands for and turning it into a fascist regime.

Since we're making it up on the 4th of July why don't you attend a tea party and see what happens.You didn't see the Klan and Aryan Nation recruiting at tea parties. The right was so worried that they told people NOT to come.I guess you didn't see the Palin rallies where people brought stuff monkeys on nooses.This is not made up.

Jody said...

Sick Freak.... exactly HOW is President moving this country toward fascism? And don't give me platitudes, I want specifics.

I can give you specifics about how the Bush Admin engaged in unethical, illegal, immoral actions and pushed through policies that led to silencing dissent, spying on Americans and torture. Those are things that fascists do.

So, please, cite some examples.

Field,
Wow, the Hate-O-Rade is strong this evening.
Today, the Republicans finished their public castration of Michael Steele by stripping away his financial control.
I guess that the good thing is that the RNC can no longer blame that House Negro for the mess they're in.

FN,

Come on...I thought you were going to comment on what happened to Michael Steele.

As for this post..it's Fox Noise..what else could they be doing, but garbage like this?

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

I tried to tell y'all the other night that Fox News had went way to far. Why do you think I posted those contact number for secret service and Homeland Security. They are some sick people and they intend to keep on inciting assassination until they can get some crazy nut to do what they want done.

Fox reminds me of the newspapers in Oklahoma back around 1900. They kept writing stories accusing black people of being pimps, and everything else under the sun. The thing is that the blacks were running successful legitimate businesses. They had 600 or more businesses, they called it "Black Wall Street". Hospitals, hotels, restaurants, shoe stores, grocery stores, movie theaters, real estate offices, lawyers, clothing stores, and just about everything you could think of back then were some of the businesses they had. They stayed on their side of the tracks and did business with their own. White resistance took a hold of those folks on the other side of the tracks and they decided to put a stop to it.

They burned "Black Wall Street" down, they burned those people's homes, and killed every black person they saw, and the police and national guard helped them do it.

That is why I keep telling people that folks like Hannity, Beck, and the rest of them crazy folks need to be taken off the air. They are poisonous and dangerous. I don't want to see no one get hurt behind their mess but it's coming sho as the sky is blue. These crazy folks are serious than sickle cell anemia.

I might make light of their mess sometimes when I post, but whelp, you black folks always have done that to keep from getting angry or crying. When I coming up as a girl, living with my parents, we had a lot of laughter in the house even when we we're going through hard times. So, I guess that is a habit with me to make light of situations but make no mistake, I'm always giving it some serious thought more so when I do.

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

Folks take a good look at that picture for this topic. Notice that the dates on them. Someone took time to deliberately match them up the pointing at President Obama's head and Rev Jackson's pictures with that caption, That proves that this in no coincidence or figment of anyone's imagination. They're not even subtle with it.

Forgive me but I was typing too fast so I hope you folks can make out what I'm trying to say.

Fox News stopped being a viable anything for me ever since semtember of 2001. I can't even watch it in order to mock it anymore (because its so sad how seriously they take themselves).

Sharon from WI said...

They burned "Black Wall Street" down, they burned those people's homes, and killed every black person they saw, and the police and national guard helped them do it.And the city refused help from the Red Cross and other charities to rebuild that community in OK.

Incidentally, another incentive for the freaks who committed this tragedy was the fact Black Wall Street and its residents in the surrounding area occupied a prime piece of real estate.

I just read a comment from someone who said Obama's about to turn this country into a fascist regime? Huh? Where do you get that from?

I thought he was turning it into a socialist country. You buplicans need to get your lies straight.

Sometimes I worry that some crazy nut is gonna do something to our president. I know a life long DEMOCRAT who just couldn't stand the thought of a black man ruling. He admitted it. He voted for McCain. He's all for civil rights and taking away guns and pro-choice and blah blah blah...but as a white man he couldn't just stand the thought of a black man as his president.

I hope the secret service and the FBI are doing there job and keeping an extra vigilant eye on these nuts.

May God protect the Obama family.

Sharon:

Yup, and that prime piece of real estate was divided amongst those folks on the other side of the tracks after the the tragedy was over. There were similar incidents such as that on in Wilmington and other cities across the USA. Everytime black folks built a thriving community, it was met with resistence from the other side of the tracks.

Big thanks to Granny dropping knowledge, as usual.

If you don't want to watch FOX Noise, you can find out what they're up to by going to Newshounds.

One of FOX Noise's newest enterprises is taking "liberal" statements and speeches and editing them so they have a completely different meaning. Of particular interest is what they just did to Al Gore. Check it out! Worth watching.

"Obama drops atomic bomb on Wall Street"? Wonder what that article was about.

FOX Noise is all about Guns, God and Gobbily Gook.

Freak,
Here's a portion of a recent letter to the editor that I wrote:

Republicans have ridden rough shod over this country for the last 12 or more years, but for the previous 8 plus years under the “leadership” of the Bush administration, they: destroyed our Constitution, ripped apart the very fabric of our country, trashed our economy and fractured our relations with the rest of the free (and not so free) world. In that period of time, they managed to privatize a large part of our government and military with billions (perhaps trillions) of dollars in big non-negotiated corporate contracts.

Now, if that ain't fascism, I don't know what is.

uptownsteve said...

They're not much for subtlety over there at Fox are they?

Every negro who recieves a Fox paycheck like Uncle Juan and Aunt Amy should be challenged on their silence in the face of this obvious racial ugliness.

Faux-News is just tabloid-slanted programming. I don't even have the endurance to redicule them these days. A look at their past and current talking heads should yield conclusions to their strange behaviors. O'Reilly (Inside Edition), Ollie North (Iran-Contra), John "Bradshaw" Layfield (WWE), Geraldo Rivera (Geraldo), and so on. See a pattern?

Meanwhile some douchebag at Red State has written "American Blacks" (his phrase) a letter wondering why they don't vote Republican. Mmmmm, big mystery.

The patronizing, condescending tone must be seen to be believed. A sample:

**Sometimes — no, actually always — the true friend is the one who tells you what you don’t want to hear. The one who does not indulge you, the one who will neither promise you nor give you candy and other bennies. Instead he tells you to sit down and eat your green beans and spinach — and if you want that nice car, then quit whining, get an education, earn a good job, and earn that nice car.**

"promise you candy"--like he's addressing 8 year olds.

Someone with rhetorical skills greater than mine (field?) needs to rip him a new one.

Rudy said...

JP,

The implication in his "open letter" is that the GOP is our friend.

The same GOP that was against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The same GOP had members like Strom Thurmond and Jesse Helms and has members like Jeff Sessions and Trent Lott. I need not elaborate about the comments made by the latter two.

When people wish to criticize the voting patterns of blacks, it would help if they looked at the issue with panoramic lens instead of myopic/ignorant lens.

Whitney B. said...

Been thinking about this fascism business and Repubbas vs. left wingers and "liberals".

During the Shrub years (both of 'em and Rea-guns):

1. Geneva Convention - gone.
2. Government of the People, By the People and For the People - gone.
3. Right to gather and speak freely - gone by branding un-American.
4. Homeland Insecurity.
5. Spying on Americans in the name of National Security.
6. Jailing perceived dissenters without due process.
7. Going to war for oil and renriching the pockets of contractors.
8. Spending trillions of dollars to weaken our economy so that the global very rich now control our economy.
9. Sending the National Guard (our United States protection) to fight on foreign soil for oil and corruption.
10. Not taking care of our military on and off the battlfeilds.
11. Taking money away from health care, Medicare and Medicaid.
12. No Child Left Behind! Joke!

Not to mention controlling the media. Did you know that they put one of theirs in to run NPR?

And, all those "secret" papers that the Shrub administration has lying in vaults! God only knows what has really been done in this country!

Fortunately, Obama is trying to reverse some of these things, but it's all going to take a long time to clean up the messes of the last 8 years.

Yikes!

No weapon formed against him shall prosper. Radio Rwanda will not prevail.

LOVE-

Protect President Obama and his family
Forgive him of his sins, and help him guard against pride and despair
Give him the wisdom to do what is right and just
And make him an instrument of Your will

Amen

Dr. Nuwang said...

Whitney, I'd venture to say that homeland insecurity started with Clinton and his blown opportinities to capture Bin Laden and with the first Bush for not finishing the job started with the first Gulf War.

And while I agree that going to war for oil was a poor pathethic excuse, one can't ignore the fact that there hasn't been another terrorist attack on US soil (to our knowledge) since 9/11/2001.

It's a blatantly bad image with so much loaded crap. I just wonder if the gun is meant to aim at Obama AND Jackson...or if FOX is trying to engender hate toward Obama alone and giving a freebie to Jackson by putting Obama between him and the gun...you know, since Jesse was so fired up to cut off Obama balls in that unfortunate sound bite he got caught in.

The sad thing is that this kind of thing is so easy to pass off as "ooops!" We didn't even notice that (fingers crossed behind their backs.)

Don't get me wrong, I love that edumacated Rhodes Scholar Slick Willy. Now, him I'd have a beer with!

So, we haven't been attacked knowingly. Yet, the FBI just admitted they goofed and there's probably a bunch of Saudi's here right now, waiting.

Finish the job of the first Gulf War???

The job was finished in 1991. The job was to expel the Iraqi Army from and to liberate Kuwait. Kuwait has been liberated ever since.

George 41 had enough sense to not go to Baghdad, because that wasn't required to liberate Kuwait.

"BillyBob" secretly does the hit, and Jackson publically gets prosecuted for the act. It's that simple and classic.

Dr. Nuwang said...

Whitney, Clinton missed the boat BIG time the details of which haven't all become public. In fact, I think Bin Laden was purposely NOT captured for reasons we could all speculate on.

As for liberating Kwuait, if Hussein had been executed then, we might not be in the mess we're ALL in now.

I come from a military family so my mindset is always about getting the job done.

Unknown said...

Fly, um, after the World Trade Center bombing during Clinton's term, there wasn't an attack on American soil by foreign terrorists till 9/11. So Bush really do much special. But if you want to take into account how because Bush couldn't deliver on his promises, we have seen a spike of Al-queada attacks elsewhere along with the fact that the government we were barely holding back in Afghanistan is now trying to take over Pakistan and with it getting a chance to get their nukes, I think we have a whole more to worry about now.

uptownsteve said...

"As for liberating Kwuait, if Hussein had been executed then, we might not be in the mess we're ALL in now."

You mean that we wouldn't have had a neon-con rationalization for invading a country which neither invaded us nor posed a threat.

Dr. Nuwang said...

Ed, lets clear this up at the onset. I'm NOT HERE defending the second Bush president or his policies. I didn't vote for the man and I didn't agree with 90% of his policies.

With that said, perhaps you'd like to explain this point because I fail to see what this has to do what what I previously said.

"Eddie said...

If you think Iraq didn't pose a threat whatsoever, then you're being incredibly naive. Not all "threats" are the same which means that the financial "threat" is just as significant as the physical one. Or perhaps you don't mind opaying $10 a gallon for gas.

Which is moot as far as I'm concerned because my post wasn't about explaining how great Bushs' policies were or kept us safe. My pointwas that his ill willed decision has IMHO, contributed to why we haven't had a similar attack.

uptownsteve said...

I don't see how invading Iraq would prevent that from happening.

Fly spats - My pointwas that his ill willed decision has IMHO, contributed to why we haven't had a similar attack.No... It isn't.

The attack on 9-11 was the Bushit's failure for dismantling the safeguards put in place after the first World Trade Center attack. The Bushits totally ignored the intelligence apparatus, and let the country's guard down. The Law Enforcement agencies in this country were doing just fine at protecting the country...

Until their warnings were totally ignored because they had worked for the last elected President - Clinton.

The only thing the Bushit did after being smacked in the face by 9-11 (besides hide in a half dozen secret bunkers) was to start doing his job in authorizing and paying attention to the Law Enforcement and National Security apparatus which was already in place.

Now, I realize small things like doing your job everyday are huge accomplishments for defective conservative minds...

But in the real grown up world they don't pass out little blue ribbons for 3rd place best effort.

You may be from a military family. But I actually served in the Army, and I know what an objective is.

*snip* As for liberating Kwuait, if Hussein had been executed then, we might not be in the mess we're ALL in now.*snip* If you think Iraq didn't pose a threat whatsoever, then you're being incredibly naive. Not all "threats" are the same which means that the financial "threat" is just as significant as the physical one. Or perhaps you don't mind opaying $10 a gallon for gas.You have a lot to learn about the Middle East. You really do not have a single clue what you are talking about.

1) Saddam Hussein, was a huge ally of the United States all through the 1980's.

2) Kuwait was actually protected from invasion by Iran during the 10 year war, BY Iraq and Saddam Hussein. If it wasn't FOR Saddam Hussein, there would not even be a Kuwait, because it would be a part of Iran right now.

3)During that time, Iraq acquired a huge debt load because they found it necessary to begin borrowing money because the war against Iran was placing a tremendous debt strain on them(as wars tend to do).They ended up borrowing a large part of it from the House of Al-Sabah, who is the ruling dynasty in Kuwait.

4)Saddam Hussein was also promised debt relief and forgiveness by Bush 1 at the time, because the war against Iran in the 80's, was in big part, a U.S. ran proxy-war. Remember the stories about gassing Kurds, and other stuff? That was with arms, chemicals, and weapons that the United States supplied them to do so, with the United States DoD's blessing and help.

4) The house of AL-Sabah own huge amounts of stock in several U.S. companies and banks, and own over a hundred billion in U.S. Treasury bonds that can be liquidated immediately. They got a large chunk of that money, not from the sale of the oil from their oil fields, but, by oil acquired by slant drilling into Iraqi oil fields.

5) I won't even go into how the Kuwaiti human rights abuse record, is even worse than even Saudi Arabia's.

6)After the war with Iran was over, Iraq was so racked with the debt that they got themselves into protecting Kuwait from Iran, Hussein naturally went to the Al-Sabah family to see if any part of it could be forgiven. The Al-Sabah family not only refused to even speak with him about it, and not only did they refuse to dismiss part of said debt incurred, they demanded to Hussein that it be paid immediately and with interest.

7)Kuwait runs to Bush 1 and threatens to immediately liquidate stock and treasury bonds, unless something is done about Saddam Hussein.

So don't come in here, with your fucking fox news-cut and paste- bumpersticker logic, and try to tell people what should have been done in the Middle East, because it is painfully obvious you don't know shit.

And this is also the last time I waste responding to any of your ignorant crap.

Yes, Granny. I agree. They are filling the heads of the weak and racist minded ones. Oklahoma, the assassination of JFK, both events happened because of the constant innuendos that incited someone to kill.

What I find interesting is that each generation tends to make light of stuff like this as though it could never happen...as if it's something absurd and ridiculous.
Well, I've lived long enough through enough tragedies to know better.

Folks can say "it better not happen" or "if it does happen there will be hell to pay", etc.
I remember thinking and saying similar things like that. Well, it still happened. JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and MLK were assassinated.

Fox is a dangerous corporation. In fact, I label them as hate mongers, racists and inciters of assassins: The picture of Obama in the cross-hairs of a rifle... a monkey shot dead by white cops...and now this. They all say "kill".

I am afraid that you may be right. But it seems that nobody is listening. And Fox just keeps plugging away again and again. The more they do it, the better the chances of it happening.

"So don't come in here, with your fucking fox news-cut and paste- bumpersticker logic, and try to tell people what should have been done in the Middle East, because it is painfully obvious you don't know shit.

And this is also the last time I waste responding to any of your ignorant crap."

Listen you sawed off son of a Bitch. I don't watch Fox news and I don't really give a flying shit if you disagree with my opinions. I've never claimed to be an expert and if you are, good to hear you're good at something other than being a jerk!

I'll give my fucking opinon on this blog whenever I dam well please so you need to take your double username alter ego puck ass and go straight to hell!

BTW, how long did it take you to Google all that?

I didn't get the joke. Besides, the Corps is so small of an organization, that I forget that they exist. Where would the Corps be without its parent-- U.S. Navy.

I think people should really start flooding Homeland Security and Secret Service with letters complaining about Fox News and let them know that the people are not having it and something needs to be done about Fox. And I definitely see something happening after this is done, "When the FCC finally gets flushed of the Bushit appointees..." Not only out of that Department but some of the other ones as well.

However, I believe that they are stalling and blocking President Obama's appointees because they're trying to clean up their tracks in some of these departments.
Folks just don't realize how dirty the White House had gotten over these last past 8 years.

I had been telling people over and over that we wouldn't find out what all Bush and his crew had done until he was up out the White House. This country was on its way to a dictatorship and marshall law. I read that Patriot Act from beginning to end. It was scary is all I can say.

Yo Field. You're being too harsh on the Fox crowd, bro. Their puppets are just tired, and haven't recovered from the "azz" kicking they received during the last two national elections. Man, you militant brothers are a trip ( LOL ).

Here is an example of how Fox selects its employees. The is an excerpt from Glen Beck's book:

“I kissed my sister. First our lips met, seconds later our tongues . ." from Glenn Beck's book, The Real America: Messages from the Heart and Heartland,copyright 2003.

I dare someone to tell me that he is not one sick cookie. He actually wrote about incest with his own sister. Ugggg...nasty!

Well field I guess you picked up a few crazies along the way, I gave up on my blogging because the crazies were all I was getting.

You can check twitter or just search for #tcot, and get an idea how much these people have jumped the shark.

One even asked why Obama hasn't been to a tea party and what it is he's afraid of, I told this person it is probably because he could be shot. They're the ones with the guns. Now we have states that want to secede from the union.

The nation elects a black man and it goes all batshit crazy. If I had the moola, I'd buy me an abandoned oil rig far enough off the coast and watch it all explode.

They talk about the nations safety, and any one of them is about as batshit crazy as Timothy McVeigh.

I do find some solace though, homeland security and the patriot act has turned right around and bit them sqaure on the ass.

The PRESIDENT is full aware of what FOX NEW'S is trying to do, why do you think HOMELAND SECURITY came out with that information the day before the tea party protest! the president was sending a message, he was letting the RACIST know that, if they tried to do anything radical HOMELAND SECURITY had information on every RACIST group that was involved with the tea party movement, OBAMA may be the PRESIDENT, but he know's about RACISM, he is well aware of GLENN, HANNITY, RUSH, and all those other folk's trying to get him hurt! and people wonder why he stayed in rev. wright's church for twenty year's! the PRESIDENT know's about the history of this country, and now he has access to every RACIST group in AMERICA! he has POWER, and that will take you a long way!

Is that you Prophetess Wallace? If it is you've been on my mind lately. I was wondering if all was well with you and it's good to see you again, if it is you.

Fans and Friends of Lydia Cornell said...

I can't believe I didn't see this! Been working too hard underground. THIS IS THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS THING I'VE SEEN FAUX NEWS DO SINCE YESTERDAY!

Whenever we play a FOX "News" clip, in order to dissect the propaganda, we say "FAUX News, and don't forget the letter "A"...

Horrifying, the rifle pointed at his head. What was the followup? Did they apologize?

GRANNY this is PROPHETESS WALLACE, thank you for your concern, I was under the weather for a season, but, trust me I've been keeping up with what was going on, I said I was not going to get back on this computer, but, here I am, thing's are getting to be to much, when it come's to FOX NEW'S, my prayer is that, HOMELAND SECURITY MONITOR'S this network day in and day out! these people are beyond dangerous!

GLENN BECK is sending out message's to the RACIST on a daily basis, I make it a point to take heed to what he is saying, this man is DANGEROUS! and he say's he is a CHRISTIAN! well if he think's he is not going to reap what he is sowing, then he doe's not read the BIBLE, because GOD is going to repay him for every wicked thing he say's about the PRESIDENT, it may take a while, but, GOD will not allow FOX NEW'S to get away with the thing's they are trying to do!

Monado said...

OMG that is horrible. I hope your Secret Service is on its toes doubly every moment of President Obama's career. And I wish some very large, serious guys would visit the Fox executive offices and explain something about responsibility and consequences.

Media4America had a clip showing how Faux News edited video clips of Obama and Al Gore to change the substance of their answers.

To tell the truth, I never thought I'd see the day. Obama got more of the popular vote than anybody since Eisenhower. Good luck!
