Outside The Circus Tent At The Marco Rubio Campaign Kick-Off
PoliticusUSA's Friday Fox Follies writer, Headly Westerfield, reports from the Marco Rubio Campaign Kick-Off in Miami.
Introducing The Friday Fox Follies
Welcome to The Friday Fox Follies, a new weekly feature at PoliticusUSA. Each week Headly Westerfield will wrap up the Fox "News" tomfoolery and shenanigans (as the dictionary defines those words) into one neat little package with a bow.
Friday Fox Follies: Trump Tee Vee
If Fox "News" didn't spend so much time defending Emperor Trump — and attacking his detractors (of which there are many) — there might be enough time to actually broadcast some real news. No matter, because Fox & Friends — his favourite show — quintupled down, airing another another softball interview with him this morning, which I'll get to eventually.
Friday Fox Follies: Fair & Balanced No More
Hell froze over this week when Fox "News" said it will no longer lie about the widely mocked, but totally empty slogan, Fair and Balanced.
Friday Fox Follies: Comey Comedy Cavalcade
Let’s get the most important news out of the way first: Fox & Friends has a brand new 2-story set, new show opening, new curvy couch, but it’s the same old crap from the Three Stooges that sit thereupon. How can you tell it was the same lie-filled propaganda? Take it from an expert on lies:
Friday Fox Follies – Climate Calamity
Odd that Fox "News" is not taking credit for Emperor Trump scuttling the Paris Accord. Yet it had more sway than the First Daughter Ivanka.
Friday Fox Follies — Hannity Hates Honesty
The news continues to be bad for Fox: ratings keep sliding into the porcelain dumper with each Nielsen score. Are people tired of the lies?
Friday Fox Follies — Chasing the Great White Ailes
When his corpulence, Roger Ailes, died I had nothing bad to say about him that I hadn't already said during his lifetime. In print.
Friday Fox Follies – Putting the Comey in Comedy
Only in Bizarro World — aka the Fox "News" Channel — is the firing of James Comey a reason to salivate over the Hillary Clinton email scandal being reopened.
Friday Fox Follies – Where the Bill Don’t Shine
The Fox sitcom provides laughs this week with new discrimination lawsuits, offers of immunity, & a comedy coda from Bill O'Reilly's loofah.
Friday Fox Follies – Family Vacation at Watters’ World
A normal week at Fox as new Roger Ailes and Sean Hannity accusations surface & Jesse Watters takes a vacation after a crude sexual innuendo
Friday Fox Follies – A Great Disturbance in the Factor
Who will this reporter write about now that The Falafel King has been fired? There's Tucker Carlson, Jesse Watters, and F&F. I'll be fine.
Friday Fox Follies – Schadenfreude Shuffle
The only story that really matters this week is who will replace Loofah Lad if he doesn't come back from his [alleged] pre-planned vacation.
Friday Fox Follies – Fox “News” Goes to War
True story: Emperor Trump defends Bill O'Reilly after NYT reveals $13 million dollars paid by sexual harasser & Fox to silence 5 accusers.
Friday Fox Follies – Swamp Things
A swamp is “an area of low-lying, uncultivated ground where water collects." Just like the Fox "News" swamp, especially the lying part
Friday Fox Follies – The Unfairness Doctrine
The Unfairness Doctrine will be Emperor Trump’s greatest legacy because it’s unfair to blame him for anything from the Fox “News” Channel.
Friday Fox Follies – Circular Impressions
The circle of fake news: A Fox "News" report, retweeted from the Oval Office, reported by Fox, then cited by Trump in interviews on Fox.
Friday Fox Follies – Brer Fox and the Tar Baby
These days the Uncle Remus stories are considered racist by some. Just like Fox “News” and Emperor Trump.
Friday Fox Follies – The Muddy Waters Sessions
With Fox "News" spending so much time faking good news about Emperor Trump, there's barely any time left to attack Democrats. Just kidding.
Friday Fox Follies – The Tucker Trump Tarantella
A fake news story on Tucker Carlson Tonight leads to an international incident with Sweden after Emperor Trump repeats it & then blames Fox.
