Friday Fox Follies awoke this morning to those Foxy Friends on Fox and Friends trashing GQ Magazine, men’s fashion, and pocket squares. But first, it’s time to blow out the candles on the cake:
Fox “News” celebrates 19 years of deception!!!
Here are 19 Of Fox News’ Most Ridiculous Moments, one for each year. And, just for laughs, Here’s Bill O’Reilly’s First Minute on Fox News, 19 Years Ago Today. Watch:

Now let’s get down to it. What had those Foxy Friends so agitated this morning?
An article called F*ck Ben Carson appeared in GQ. Without a hint of irony Steve Doocy said in response, “This particular magazine has an agenda. It’s left.” No! Really! He said that. It’s merely an echo of ROFLMAO – Elisabeth Hasselbeck Says Mainstream Media “Takes Sides,” as Fox “News” continues to pretend it’s not part of the mainstream media, even as it has the highest ratings among all the news channels.
The fact of the matter is that there’s not enough room in this article — or the internet — to document all the stupid things Dr. Ben Carson said just this week:
Ben Carson Suggests Holocaust Would Have Been Less Likely if Jews Were Armed:
The comments drew a swift response from the Anti-Defamation League.
“Ben Carson has a right to his views on gun control, but the notion that Hitler’s gun-control policy contributed to the Holocaust is historically inaccurate,” said Jonathan Greenblatt, National Director of the organization. “The small number of personal firearms available to Germany’s Jews in 1938 could in no way have stopped the totalitarian power of the Nazi German state.”
From Crooks and Liars comes Ben Carson Would Never Politicize Anything, Except His Religion:
The Giggling Couch Tumors, especially the sanctimonious Hasselbeck, couldn’t wait to talk about Carson’s ‘Christian’ faith, which is, more specifically, the 7th Day Adventist Christian cult, and he advocates all sorts of crazy ideas. He calls the theory of evolution, the work of ‘The Adversary’ (aka Satan) and eschews the teaching of evolutionary science altogether. Although he allegedly has a medical degree from the University of Michigan, he is an ardent believer in God did all this majesty in six days Creationism. Yikes!!
The brain surgeon proves you don’t have to be smart to be a brain surgeon:
Dr. Ben Carson Ready To Start A World War With Russia • Fox News Would Rather Viewers Get Shot Than Reveal Ben Carson Is Dead Wrong About Mass Shootings • Carson Defends Shooting Comments: ‘I Want to Plant in People’s Minds What to Do’ • Carson: Taking Away Guns ‘More Devastating’ Than ‘Body With Bullet Holes’ • Ben Carson’s Appalling Claim Some Values Are More Equal Than Others
However, Fox “News” has his back as Fox Contributor Claims Media Criticism Of Ben Carson’s Mass Shooting Comments Is “A Hit Job,” or when Amid Controversies, Fox & Friends Emerges As Ben Carson’s Unofficial Spin Doctor. Yes, it’s true. Fox & Friends Defends Ben Carson’s Controversial Comments In The Wake of Oregon Mass Shooting. Then Fox & Friends Doubles Down On Defense Of Ben Carson: “Media Is Going To Try To Take Him Down … Even Though There Is A Logical Explanation.”
Even Lindsey Graham [ain’t buying it]: Carson ‘Has No Idea What He Would Do’ During Shooting. In contrast to Fox a real journalist, Anderson Cooper, Grills Carson Spox over Shooting Remarks: How Does He Know What He Would Do? Another real journo, Wolf Blitzer, Grills Carson on Shooting Comments and ‘Real Black President’ Remark.
WAIT!!! WHAT!!! Real Black President remark?
Oh, did I forget to mention that Rupert Murdoch Extols Ben Carson As Someone Who Could Be A ‘Real Black President’? Walking it back after the Twittersphere exploded in righteous outrage Rupert Murdoch Meant ‘No Offence’ When He Suggested Ben Carson Should Be Our First ‘Real Black President,’ because Rupert Murdoch Is Very, Very Sorry You Misunderstood What He Meant.
Naturally Van Jones Whacks Rupert Murdoch For ‘Real Black President’ Tweet. Van Jones expounds on Murdoch ‘Black President’ Tweet: Fox Has Been ‘Enemy’ of Black Struggles. Trevor Noah Rips Carson, ‘Vaguely Racist’ Murdoch: I Know What Twitter Blowback’s Like. Watch:
Meanwhile, the other late night comedians had a field day with Carson:
Larry Wilmore Has Had It with Ben Carson:
‘You Are Out of Your F*cking Mind’The Daily Show Rips ‘Batsh*t Crazy’
Ben Carson for Shooting Remarks
Finally, proving that sometimes a slave doesn’t even know he’s a slave, Dr. Ben Carson Defends Rupert Murdoch’s Racist Tweet.
THE FALAFEL KING: It was totally predictable when O’Reilly Sends Jesse Watters To Dearborn To Mock Muslims that Fox News Fans Want To Bomb Dearborn, Michigan After O’Reilly’s Hit Job On The City. Naturally The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) response[d], with a long statement. To his credit, O’Reilly Faces CAIR Official Who Slammed Him for ‘Racist’ Stereotypes on Watters World:
Walid pointed out that the online reaction to the Watters World segment has been pretty shocking, but O’Reilly still insisted Watters meant “no malice” whatsoever.
That’s right, it was all in good, clean fun even though CAIR Representative Calls Out Bill O’Reilly For “Old, Tired, And Really Bigoted” Segments That “Reinforce … Stereotypes,” the subtitle of which says, O’Reilly Admits To Factual Errors In Watters’ World Segment On Dearborn, MI: “That’s My Fault As An Editor” And “It Won’t Happen Again,” even tho’ it happens in almost every Watters’ World.
If that were the only stupid thing Loofah Lad said, this column would be much shorter. However, Delusional O’Reilly Insists Child Hunger Only Exists Because Parents Abuse The System, while Bill O’Reilly [insists]: The idea that any ‘urchins’ are going hungry in the US is ‘a total lie.’ Then Bill O’Reilly Cites Right Wing “Studies” To Attack Poor People – Again! Consequently, Working Moms Respond To Bill O’Reilly’s Latest Poor-Shaming Tirade, which means it’s only a matter of time before he either slut shames them, or calls them pinheads, or both.
BUT WAIT! THAT’S NOT ALL!!!
O’Reilly Asks Chris Christie About ‘A
Racial Component In President Obama’
Bill O’Reilly Dismisses Drug Sentencing
Reform As “Liberal Compassion For Criminals”
O’Reilly Bashes Clinton And Sanders
For Promising Americans ‘Free Stuff’
Bill O’Reilly Defends Jeb Bush’s Comments That

O’Reilly: ‘Irrational’ Liberals Like Hillary

Bill O’Reilly Attacks Liberals Over Calls For Gun Control
O’Reilly Suggests Secularism To
Blame For Oregon’s UCC Shooting
Yet, despite being known far and wide as a congenital liar, every once in a while he tells the truth:
TUCKER WITH AN F: Tucker Carlson [falsely claims]: Australians ‘Have No Freedom’ Because Of Hate Speech And Gun Regulations, which made him a laughing stock all over again:
Fox News host: People in Australia
‘have no freedom’ because hate
speech and guns are regulated
Fox Attacks Australia For Having
Gun Control Laws And ‘No Freedom’
BULLY BOY BOLLING: On The Five Fox’s Bolling, Geraldo Fight Over Gun Background Checks: It Hurts Poor People!
WAIT!!! WHAT??? When did Eric Bolling ever care about poor people? Yet, Bolling Criticizes Background Checks: “Poor People … Will Have To Make The Choice Between” Buying Guns Or Food.
I thought O’Reilly said there are no people doing without food in this country. I’m so confused.
That’s why Crooks and Liars asks the musical question: Do Fox News Viewers Actually Take This Crap Seriously?
“In high crime urban areas, poor people have to make the choice between buying this gun to protect my family or feeding my family,” Bolling said. He then cited the high cost for background checks in New York and Maryland.
What? You mean the poors will have to choose between DAT GUN and food? Is Bolling down with them using their debit card to buy said gun?
Do Fox News viewers actually fall for scams like this? Bolling’s faux concern for poor people is one of the biggest jokes I’ve ever seen on Fox News.
Eric Bolling proves he’s no brain surgeon, all over again.
NO LONGER PREGGY LEGGY MEGGY: Megyn Kelly Opens Up to Charlie Rose: Fox ‘Didn’t Want a War’ with Trump. Yes, Megyn Kelly Tells Charlie Rose She’s “Not An Opinion Maker” But Here Are 9 Times She Engaged In Advocacy From The Anchor Desk. And, here are two more recent ones:
Megyn Kelly Defends Police Shown
Punching Unarmed Woman In The
Head: “You Can’t Resist Arrest”
So much for being a straight news anchor.
THE PHONY WAR ON CHRISTMAS COMES EARLIER AND EARLIER EVERY YEAR:
According To Fox, “It’s Only
October, But The War On
Christmas Is Already In Full Swing”
WITH FRIENDS LIKE THIS, WHO NEEDS ENEMAS: Fox & Friends will allow anyone to promote any nonsense on the Curvy Couch, as long as they attack what the Three Stooges love to attack. Case in point: ‘Being Gay Is A Sin’ Pastor Joel Osteen Is Selling A New Book.
It’s time for Joel Osteen to sell another book, and since he shares an audience of gullible rubes with Fox and Friends, it’s only logical that he’d take advantage of his celebrity status on the curvy couch to make even more money. He wants people to know the power of the phrase ‘I Am,’ provided that it’s followed with positivity. The book is called, ‘The Power Of I Am,’ and the subtitle is not ‘really rich from fleecing the public,’ as it should be.
Osteen represents the new mega-televangelist brand of stardom. He has found a way to divert the virtue of poverty espoused by Jesus Christ and turned it into a worship of wealth.
And that includes Fr. Jonathan Morris [who] Attacks ACLU For Not Wanting Pregnant Women To Die In Catholic Hospitals.
Every life is precious, except the mother’s.
