Since 1996 when FOX Noise broadcast for the first time, it was obvious that an entire network had been created based on white nationalism, hatred for liberals, and with an intent to divide our nation. FOX has never been a legitimate news service; it is a propaganda machine for the extremist right-wing.
One by one their fake-journalists have been exposed as frauds. But its implosion began with the president of its news division. Roger Ailes, who created FOX with owner Rupert Murdoch, was charged with sexual harassment by 25 women. Next to go was their most popular paid liar, Bill O’Reilly for similar reasons. Megyn Kelly chose to leave and has now been removed from NBC’s regular programming.
Beginning with Trump’s declaration to seek the Republican nomination in July of 2015 Sean Hannity has kept his nose against the humongous derriere of Donald Trump. He has become an embarrassment to FOX; and that’s not easy to do.
Tucker Carlson was given an evening slot and has proven that he is far from being a legitimate journalist and is no more than another tool for the right wing.
Yesterday we learned that many of Carlson’s sponsors are leaving. America is the most diverse nation in the world and becoming more so with every passing year. Carlson ignored this fact and attacked immigrants attempting to come to America as his ancestors did many years ago.
“We have a moral obligation to admit the world’s poor, they tell us, even if it makes our own country poorer and dirtier and more divided,” he said, before criticizing immigrants with his take on the Emma Lazarus poem at the base of the Statue of Liberty. “Huddled masses yearning to breathe free? Nope, cynical shakedown artists who have been watching too much CNN.”
The truth is that only men and women who enjoy being lied to watch FOX Noise. Carlson wasn’t finished with his racist rant.
“The left says we have a moral obligation to admit the world’s poor. Even if it makes our own country more like Tijuana is now, which is to say poorer and dirtier and more divided,” he said.
“That’s what we said. It’s true… But precisely because it is so obviously true, saying it out loud is a threat.”
If you have ever seen Carlson interviewed on a real network you are fully aware that he is an ignorant man, but until now we had no concept of how little intelligence he possessed.
Here’s the truth. In just a few years pure whites will be the minority. Millennials are the largest voting bloc in America, and they do not support racism, bigotry, or sexism. It is also important to note that most refuse to recognize organized religion; cults are not their choice.
Times are changing and Carlson, Hannity, and those like them must either join real Americans in celebrating diversity in America or get out.
