Fox News contributor Ralph Peters quits ‘propaganda machine’ in email to colleagues
The Washington Times ^ | March 20, 2018 | Jessica Chasmar

A retired Army lieutenant colonel and Fox News contributor quit the network Tuesday, accusing it of fueling paranoia among its audience and serving as a “propaganda machine” for the Trump administration.

Retired Lt. Col. Ralph Peters, a “strategic analyst” at Fox News, made the comments in an email to colleagues announcing that he had not renewed his contract, obtained by BuzzFeed.

“Four decades ago, I took an oath as a newly commissioned officer. I swore to ‘support and defend the Constitution,’ and that oath did not expire when I took off my uniform. Today, I feel that Fox News is assaulting our constitutional order and the rule of law, while fostering corrosive and unjustified paranoia among viewers. Over my decade with Fox, I long was proud of the association. Now I am ashamed,” Mr. Peters reportedly wrote.

I sure wish he had taken Juan Williams and Shep Smith with him. In fact, the only people I like are Lou Dobbs, Trish Reagan, Hannity, and Laura Ingram.

Can’t wait to see Juan Williams quit FOX News.

Worth repeating!

What about that Hillary stooge Tucker has on all the time? Why is Fox spending money on these idiots?

I can’t stand FOX or any of the network news for that matter. It’s ALL propaganda, just with changing slants.

FoX Business and CNBC are the only cable news I can stand if they are covering something. If not I have to suffer through the others if I can

When does he start on CNN or MSNBC and did he spew this poison for free or profit?

“Feeding paranoia...”

How ironic. He accuses the network for which he was the primary feeder of paranoia. The guy’s a kook. He had become unwatchable. Good riddance.

"What has caused this turn around—this loss of spine?"

Nothing for anyone to get excited about. It's only a few old people like Tomi Lahren and Tucker Carlson trying to entertain the younger kids just a tiny bit.

;-D
