On Tuesday, the Fox News Channel’s “Kelly File” host Megyn Kelly criticized the “double standard” between the treatment of the Black Lives Matter movement and the Tea Party, stating with the Black Lives Matter movement, “suddenly the actions of a few do not apply to the many” like they did with the Tea Party.
Kelly began by playing footage of a New Black Panther group chanting “Oink oink, bang bang” in front of a jail in Texas, which she said was “Just one of the angry and incendiary chants we have seen against police in recent months. … But so far, haven’t heard much from Washington. however, take a walk back with me to 2011, when a shooting in Tucson led to an angry chorus complaining about what they said was angry Tea Party rhetoric.”

OAN seems to present the news then I can research and form my own opinions. Good that Fox still has you.
“Good that FOX still
has you.”
FOX doesn’t have me,
I have it along with
other sources, both
liberal and conservative.
I meant that they still have your viewership not that they have a hold on you. Their viewership has slipped.
She’s comparing the Tea Party that advocated for the deaths of NO ONE. They were not racist, calling for the killing of blacks and police officers. The “black lives matter” protestors have done all of this in realty - over and over again.
They have called not only for killing of all whites, they have called for the murder of Police Officers. The Tea Party did nothing of the sort - not even close. How could she ball up the tea party into this hate group? Is she stupid? Whoever took Meg’s brain, please return it.
I did not watch her. Stupid, liberal sucker punch comparison from the get go.
No doubt it has slipped.
But unlike some other people
I see no grand conspiracy to
sell out to the left on the
part of FOX. Megyn Kelly has
bestowed more grief on the left
than Don Trump has ever dreamed
of doing and I am neither a lover
of Kelly nor a hater of Trump.
People are always ready to throw
pundits and politicians under the
little yellow bus for good just because
they veer from the reservation from time
to time. And even egotistical whacks like
BO’R will stumble into something reasonable
on occasion. That is why I won’t just dump
them. And I would never want to be on a
debate team or a football coaching staff with others
who don’t think it is important to study the
opposition.
Again good for you but I can get the same news without the spin elsewhere. Quit Hannity long ago for his too right spin. Give me facts.
Hannity...Ugh!
...lightweight embarrassment to
conservatism. He cannot argue beyond
the first level of any subject. His
incessant use of lists is like
fingernails on a chalkboard. You
don’t go to Hannity or all the
other pundits for news in the first
place. He is SUPPOSED to be about
spin as are the rest including
“No spin, BO”.
It is the hard news outlets where
spin is problematic. The front
pages of the NYT, LAT, WaPo and
the TV news programs like World
News Tonight falsely claim
objectivity. They are the main
reason I seek a variety of sources.
He cannot argue beyond
the first level of any subject.
He’s made a comfortable living from it... How, i don’t know...Maybe cause Rush’s management and influence has propped him up for many, many years...I knew an old man(RIP) in Montgomery, AL that did a radio show from the late 60’s on up to maybe late 90’s til he retired...infinitely more entertaining and insightful than Hannity...Hannity is just not that smart....and i am not claiming I could do better but come on!...I have run into to gift of gab people with way more original insight than him.
I have not had cable or the such in maybe 5 years...I know people see these comments on the internet all the time and roll their eyes... I don’t watch TV period...it is mindless crap..Netflix occasionaly..Look at the internet, work all the time, read books and exercise when i have the energy...My blood pressure thanks me. 85/129 last i checked...pulse 68....not a specimen but not bad for 50....and i got a gut that i have tremendous investment in ;)
Oooo, Roger Ailes’ little fluff window dressing is getting all angry! What will we do?
