The good news about Fox News blubber mouth Bill O’Reilly is that he speaks to only a teeny, tiny percentage of the country; the bad news is part of that small and dwindling group actually thinks he makes sense and then goes out and kills people because they believe his vile, hate-filled rhetoric.

Hannity Insanity
Few people are better at creating a Krauthammer-lauded “alternate reality” than Fox’s Sean Hannity. Columnist Dick Polman provides an excellent example:
On his Fox show one week ago, Sean Hannity told his credulous fans that President Obama had made a deliberate effort during his Cairo speech “to give 9/11 sympathizers a voice [...]

Reprise from 14 June 2008: When Tim russert passed away during the height of the campaign, this was our tribute.
“I’d rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints – you know that only the good die young.” – Billy Joel.
As I sat for hours searching for yet more words to express the magnitude [...]

As a progressive, one of the things that I appreciate about MSNBC’s evening line-up is that although its people have a liberal point-of-view, they stick to actual facts rather than slide down into the slimy half-truths and outright lies that Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and the other on Fox’s right wing mouthpiece network [...]

 
Good that he signed that big new contract before these numbers… FOX News’ BillO is still calling for a Federal investigation of MSNBC’s recent ratings surge, costing him even more audience this week.

His map and view of the world is the only way McCain can be ahead and they casn justify moaning until election day. So [...]

 
TV Newser has the results. Here are the full totals instead of just the 25-54 demographic. What’s impressive here is that Fox’s audience really hasn’t shrunk - they’re pretty much fans and they’re not going to switch channels.
MSNBC’s Olbermann and Maddow combo has attracted hundreds of thousands of NEW viewers to the fold. Numbers are [...]

In the middle of our worst economic crisis since the Depression, the McCain campaign wants to change the subject from issues to nonsense because his policies of the past 26-years cannot be defended. From the Keating 5 to the current guilt by association attack gambit, this silliness has snarky Sarah going gutter, no… [...]

All this talk on Fox News about Gwen Ifill’s objectivity being compromised because she has a soon to be released book entitled, “Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama” sounds a lot like much ado about nothing.
I did a little searching and found that PBSs Jim Lehrer, moderator of several consecutive [...]
