Hypocrisy at its finest.

I've always been a hater of the American media, but in particular Fox News. No other media giant is more ridiculously and conspicuously pro-Republican and just flat out bigots. The video below shows the lowest blow that just made me want to throw a shoe at my screen for watching it. Ralph Nader is an exemplary American, defender of the poor and the consumer. To attack him and presume his racism was the lowest possible, most base, most animal of all moves. In the clip it didn't matter what Nader said or what was meant by the metaphor; the importance was that he used a racially sensitive word and Fox jumped in to be the "moral" high ground. Well FUCK political sensitivity, FUCK political correctness.

Nader is right. Obama WILL have to choose between being a leader, innovator and CHANGE or more of the same. Between bowing down to the huge lobbies and agendas or choosing for what is best for the most people. But really Fox, really? The hypocrisy and bigotry in that news anchor's face is the look of intolerance, of stupidity. And that bitch at the end DECLARING the end of Nader's career. Who are you? GAHHH, this video gets me so mad, I can't even express it.

I Hate Fox News.

  1. Really, it is quite plebian to get so upset about the media. It only can present sensationalized cursory news because that is what people demand. If you want a perfectly objective source of news, watch CSPAN. It is nothing but raw content, so nobody can say that their side is not being heard. Of course, people know that this option exists but find raw objectivity boring, so they do not watch it, leaving Keith Olbermann and Bill O'Reilly employed.

    I kind of like Fox News, though, as far as mainstream news goes. It is always nice when Karl Rove appears.
