Last month, in response to protests from Democrats and media
groups, GOP Hack and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy made 41,000 hours of security footage available to
FOX News most pernicious purveyor of propaganda; Tucker Carlson. Predictably,
we knew what the scurrilous little maggot would do with it: promote more
lies and brain disruptions in his mindless minions. After all,
he'd already claimed January 6 was a “false flag” attack,
staged by authorities to entrap Trump supporters.
Now, no thanks to the cretinous and spineless McCarthy, we saw on Monday night how Carlson edited dozens of hours of the footage try to portray those who stormed the Capitol as "peaceful protesters". This as opposed to being the insurrectionist traitors they actually were - all to satiate the 3.5 million boneheads that tune into his forlorn foolishness each weekday night.
The Turdful Tucker actually claimed the tapes: "showed mostly peaceful chaos”, adding:
“Taken as a whole the video record does not support the
claim that January 6 was an insurrection. In fact, it demolishes that claim.”
NO, scumball! Taken as knit together, cherry-picked snippets you delivered showed what you and other human roaches at FOX want your benighted viewers to believe. But fortunately, millions of intelligent and percipient Americans see through this gambit - as well as the GOP Senate and Mitch McConnell - who averred yesterday he was "associating with the Capitol police" and the verified WHOLE record. Not halfsies.
In the wake of Carlson's shameless hijacking of the video record to brainwash his snowflakes, the family of Brian Sicknick - the Capitol police officer who died the day after the January 6 attack - lambasted Carlson and Fox News. A statement issued last night said:
“The Sicknick family is outraged at the ongoing attack on our family by the unscrupulous and outright sleazy so-called news network of Fox News.”
A more accurate depiction of FOX News I could not have given myself. The family went on to condemn Tucker Carlson and Fox News as “unscrupulous and outright sleazy”. Fox and Carlson, the family said,
“will do the bidding of [Donald] Trump or any of his sycophant followers, no matter what damage is done to the families of the fallen, the officers who put their lives on the line and all who suffered on January 6, due to the lie started by Trump and spread by sleaze-slinging outlets like Fox”.
This is not histrionic, not one bit. It is a rational and justified backlash at Carlson's odious effort to minimize what transpired. Nine deaths have been linked to the attack on the Capitol by diehard, sore loser Trump MAGA-heads, who were told to “fight like hell” in service of the orange maggot's lie that his defeat by Joe
Biden was the result of electoral fraud.
Trump was also impeached for inciting the attack but acquitted when enough Senate Republicans stayed loyal. The House January 6 committee made four criminal referrals regarding Trump to the Department of Justice.
Fox News, the family stated, “has shown time and time again that [it is] little more than the propaganda arm of the Republican party, and like Pravda will do whatever [it is] told to keep the hatred and the lies flowing while suppressing anything resembling the truth.
“Fox does this not for any sense of morality as they have none but
for the quest for every penny of advertising money they can get from those who
buy airtime from them.”
Carlson's latest propaganda efforts, to whitewash the January 6th insurrection, follows recent revelations that the FOX stable of trolls knew Trump’s claims were false. But rather than admitting it these pseudo-journalist cowards kept accommodating election deniers, e,g.
Yeppers, Dominion Voting Systems Needs To Bankrupt The Snide, Lying Jokers At FOX News
Terrified of their dumbass viewers deserting, and FOX losing market share.
All this was exposed in filings in a $1.6 bn defamation suit from Dominion Voter Systems include Rupert Murdoch, Fox News’ owner, indicating he deliberately allowed his trolls to continue their defamation of Dominion to keep profits rolling in.
As more material become available from the Dominion lawsuit we can expect even more evidence to come out of the FOX trolls' disrespect for their viewers. Confirming that the Fox elites consider them no more than backwoods buffoons and half-educated red state crackers, mostly illiterate. What if the latter actually wake up to the pretense that they have any respect? It won't matter because the main aim of FOX is to ensure these rubes don't cry, get upset or migrate to Newsmax.
The cognoscenti at FOX know the only purpose in their sorry lives is to soak up lies to make them believe they're "making the libs cry"- when they are the real snowflakes.

Excerpt:
Fox News host Sean Hannity interviewed former President Donald Trump on Monday and, apparently, omitted crucial chunks of their conversation about Ukraine when it was broadcast to Hannity's radio audience.
Justin Baragona, the senior media reporter at The Daily Beast, noticed the discrepancy on Tuesday.
"According to Trump, all he needed to do was let Russia 'take over' parts of Ukraine," Baragona explained. "Saying that Russia was going for the 'whole enchilada' with Joe Biden as president, Trump added that Russia 'took over nothing' while he was in the White House because Russian President Vladimir Putin 'understood' that 'he would have never done it.'"

Excerpt:
The Dominion lawsuit against Fox News has gotten a great deal of attention, and rightly so, for it raises fundamental questions about democracy in the U.S. and the ways that it is profoundly corrupted and seriously endangered by an alliance of right-wing media and the Republican Party. And yet beneath the lying exposed in the case are the more dangerous lies at the heart of MAGA ideology. And whether or not the notorious liars at Fox News Corp. believed anything they were saying about Dominion, there is no doubt that the deeper lies remain articles of faith for Fox and the Republican party.
