This is Obama’s America! It’s like the Soviet Union. He said he would change the country. He said it. And a lot of people voted for him. And if you see any of those people today, do me a favor, punch them in the face.

Here’s how Fox News reported on IRS official Lois Lerner pleading the Fifth at a Congressional hearing.
Ah, if only her name were Lois Teapartyhating Bigliar.

And Fox has already taken both sides on the Fifth Amendment as well.

mediamattersforamerica:

Given recent allegations that 3 military service members — all who are in charge of sexual assault programs — committed sexual assaults, Fox News has seriously underreported the topic. While MSNBC spent nearly 5 hours on it in the last 2 weeks, Fox News spent less than 19 minutes. 

And most of that was Shep.

Every time Oliver North talks about ‘Benghazi cover-ups’ on FOX an Angel sticks its head into a 1980’s paper shredder.

Fox News tackles NBA’s Jason Collins’ coming out as the first out gay athlete pretty much exactly how you’d expect- by basically ignoring it.

The news is mentioned on their front page- as the last story in a list of very tiny stories at the very bottom.

Yes, obviously. What better way to teach English Lit than to bring Charles Dickens’ novels to life?

Fox News’ Kirsten Powers was one of the most vocal media figures to be outraged over the amount of media coverage the Gosnell case was getting.
This is what happens when you point out that Fox News covered Kermit Gosnell’s arrest the least of 3 cable networks.
