Fox news may be at its limit

[UberNeuman]

Indeed. I wonder if they would jump out of the window if Fox News told them to?

Only if the window were a foot off the ground. They are also gutless cowards.

 

[nickqt]

It's all good. Modern US conservatives have the super power of not remembering shit, and cognitive dissonance.

Re-programmable meatbags, in other words.

They'll be telling themselves safe night-night stories about Strongman Trump soon enough.

 

[sportage]

Earlier, I too looked in at Fox JUST TO SEE how on earth they could possibly spin this in their favor. In Donald Trump's favor.
How Fox could spin a president openly engaging in treason, live, on world TV.
AND... for Fox, it's all about Hilary's server. ALL ABOUT.
So.... no reason for anyone out there to get upset about this because WE ALL KNOW what the purpose of Fox News has become.
Nothing they say or nothing they do on Fox News should shock anyone.
THIS IS WHO THEY ARE. Period!
THIS is why they exist.

Think of this as the woman that falls in love with the convict serving time in prison.
Started off as only a pen pal thing, then soon escalates into an all out undying love affair between the prisoner and the woman. Well, at least as the woman sees it.

PEOPLE.... do not embarrass or humiliate yourself from anything that happens over on Fox News.
It simply IS NOT worth it.
Not worth the time or worth the trouble or worth the concern.
THEY'RE NUTS over there! We know THAT.
And frankly, they also realize this over there at Fox.
But for gods sake it's Donald Trump, Fox News, and Shan Hanity.
Consider that.
Enough said?

Still, one must laugh at that little game happening over on Fox.
Laugh, while rolling the eyes in disbelief.
But never forget NEVER FORGET.... It's Fox News.
Need we know more?

Fox jumped right on top of Anthon Bourdains bashing.

Not necessarily right or wrong, but standard procedure for them in any case.

Seriously, look at the fucking squirrel!

Look at it you fucking morons! Look!

Yes, standard operating procedure when dealing with useful idiots. Keeps 'em nice and useful.

Has anyone told Fox that the DNC server was just a VM hosted by a public cloud provider??? Like, there's a reason why CrowdStrike was called (had approved access to the facility??) Oh, and both CrowdStrike and the FBI were given copies of the virtual machine to run full forensics on???I

Edit: Oops actually some of the DNC computers were on-prem, but CrowdStrike did image them to run forensics remotely.

Their audience wouldn't understand and it wouldn't sound as "evil".

Yes, you should be ashamed of how stupid you are. I'm not stupid, because I understood that this was actually all real from the beginning, and more importantly, I understand that propaganda works. It fucking works, otherwise these assholes wouldn't spend millions on campaigns like this.

You claim propaganda doesn't work? Look who won the fucking presidency on the back of internet memes and the "irony" vote from those that live their lives online and never voted before until Trump started to look right chill in a nice Pepe outfit.

Also, it has been shown that Russia did, indeed, hack several county election systems and stole hundreds of thousands of voter registrations and voter information. So, they are indeed doing exactly the things that you aren't worried that they are doing, but are claiming that you will very much care as soon as they "go too far." So, shut the fuck up.

I'm kind of ashamed of you, though.

I’m just saying we are often not worthy of the high status we put on ourselves. I have several friends who repost stupid false anti-dem or anti-rep stories and never even give the thought to research them.

When confronted with the false story, I’ve even seen a reply “well it doesn’t change my point of view”....

All I’m saying is, if we are that dumb and gullible as a country then we asked to get messed with. If it wasn’t the Russians that exposed it it would have been someone else. We voted for the two worst candidates in an election I can remember, and we have no one to faul but ourselves

Truth to that.
You have voted in a fashion that gave the 0.1% so much power that they were able to build constructs to feed targeted propaganda to the electoral college via fox or sinclair, breitbart, infowars.
This is not the fault of the voter that voted for Trump, it is the fault of past administrations to not see this threat to democray coming and mitigating it.
Take a look over the the planet, past and present, our DNA expressed is capable of adapting almost ANY viewpoint if we are exposed to it long enough.
I guess it comes down to diet.
Like your diet should be varied to get you all the vitamins, mineral and proteins you need, so should your news feed. I think this falls on the government, there should be a rule of law that mandates that ie. news direct from the whitehouse should be mandatory and free before you talk any cable deals or whatever.

Imagine if ½ of the US only had access to RT, Russia Today. How would that pan out in a few decades?

Speaking of how well propaganda works on the gullible, you still think Hillary was a horrible candidate.

 

[mizzou]

I don’t know how to respond without sarcasm, but if you think Hillary was a good candidate and anyone who thinks otherwise was duped by Russian troll bots you are smoking something terrible.

Hillary’s presidential aspirations was nothing but a track record of failure. I was also one of those who remembered her attack on free speech when she went after violent video games and that probably just set me up to dislike her. Hillary would have been the ultimate Nanny state politician and I could go on forever about why she was wrong. She was outrageously wrong to pick in the 2016 election.

but don’t ask me right? I would have voted for Bernie but ended up voting libertarian

Went after violent video games? These were the proposals by her and others:

• A prohibition on selling games to minors, where retailers could be heavily fined for selling M or AO games to those under 17
• An independent analysis of the ESRB’s ratings system to figure out if it was actually accurate
• Authority for the FTC to investigate misleading game ratings
• Authority for consumers to register complaints with the FTC for misleading game ratings
• An audit of retailers including possible “secret shoppers” to see if underage kids can buy M or AO games from stores

Please let me know which of those issues you have a problem with.

There is absolutely no reason for the govt to get involved in private sales of media.

She wanted to treat video games and regulate them like the ATF. I am absolutely opposed to the govt regulating free speech, even if it was good natured in its intent.

You are one of the reasons we have Trump as President. Read this now and understand. The US is a two party system. Every single vote you cast is either for a Republican or a Democrat. If you cast your vote for a third party you are actually voting for the party least like your beliefs because you are diluting the vote for the party closest to your beliefs which in our two party system means that the other party just picked up points. If the Republicans get 33% of the votes, and the Democrats get 30%, Libertarians get 20% of the votes, and Green gets 17% of the votes, the Republicans win, and everyone else gets nothing.

The time to vote for individual candidates is in the primaries. Because of the way American politics work in the general elections you are NEVER voting for a individual candidate and you are ALWAYS voting for a party. So, choose either the Democrats or Republicans and always vote for one of them, because everything else is literally voting against your own interests.

But the bootlickers Hannity and Carlson will both be interviewing Trump the next two nights and they will hold his hand through it all to ensure the faithful don’t slip. They already are ignoring what they saw. They will never stray.

I saw enough of Carlson and that clown of a Princeton professor or what ever supposedly prestigious university last night to know he hasn't changed a bit. Professor was saying having good relations with Russia (our enemy) is a good thing.

All those suck. That's the job of the parents.

However, Hillary was a livable level of crap candidate.

Trump tho, he was an obvious existential threat to the nation.

Ugly prom date or not, Hillary should have gotten 100M votes.

If you keep believing that Hilary is one of the two worst people ever in American politics then you're just plain a fucking idiot. Simple as that. You can "have a bad feeling" about her all you want, but she was objectively qualified (more than literally every single fucking Republican that is in our country), and had a history showing she could not only handle the Republican's constant barrage of bullshit, but that she could also work with them when they show they're willing to stop being petulant little children. That people like you went "uh, the politicians are being whiny pieces of shit and won't work together" and then vote in people openly saying that they're just going to tell the other side how it is instead of working with them (while they have often been bragging about not being willing to work with Democrats), says that you need to know what the fuck you're talking about with regards to politics. Because ignorance of what has been happening is the problem. The Republicans did not suddenly turn into the disgusting assclowns with Turmp, they had been acting that way for years already. And people fucking ignored it, until they realized stuff like "oh, shit, while the ACA isn't perfect, WTF is with the insane shit these Republican assholes are saying about it and openly admit they have no fucking plan at all for what to do instead" or how everytime an issue becomes critical, well damnit "now's not the time to be talking about what to do about it" when its one of their pet issues. Let alone plan anything, nah, let's fucking gut everything so that catastrophes become inevitable and impossible to deal with when they reach criticality.

It's the job of the parents to what? Police the video game community? Know everything about every game? Helicopter their kids to make sure they never play a game inappropriate for their age? There is nothing wrong with a proposal to keep the industry honest.

There are far worse things kids could be doing then playing M and AO rated video games. Such as bullying or killing each other.

Okay. There are far worse things kids could be doing than smoking. Such as bullying or killing each other. Guess we can do away with laws that make it illegal to sell cigarettes to kids.
