Tom Toles for August 26, 2016

They want all us chickens Think they are fair and balanced, but it proven that people who only listen to fox “news” are less informed on what is happening in reality that those who don’t watch any news.

FOX wants us to think they are the morally upright pillars of a polite society with an emphasis on strong family values instead of a group of men who systematically use their positions to harass and demean women. Another example of NOT walking the talk.

The hen’s are suing.

Ah yes, Fox “News,” where America has heretofore remained Great and the women on staff all know that the company motto is really “coffee, tea or me?”

I don’t know why anyone is surprised by this? Remember “Loofa” O’Reilly?

At least Fox News are the only ones to show o-(b)LAME-a saying- “I think the muslim brotherhood is a good organization”!

Old_CurmudgeonYa shore faild that exercize. That ain’t west Texahs, not evn West, Texas. Sounds mo lak Piney Woods oar Daltah Missassippi.

Fox showing blatant discrimination, against age and against sex. Women aren’t as Fox to be real reporters, because women aren’t serious journalists. Fox is just a place to gather the “hens” together, all those chicks, all those birds. Right-wing media is playing to its position of derogatory and negative, much like the Republican nominee. Fox is the cat among the pigeons.

Funny, no comments from right wingers defending their side on this issue!

I’m pretty liberal, but I have to say that although FOX is loaded with reptiles, it’s still far more balanced than MSNBC, whose coverage is as shrill and one-sided as you can get. How many times can you stand hearing Rachel M. squeal: “Just wait till I tell you what that idiot Trump said today!”

It’s balanced because all four of the legs are the same length. Now let’s see what they can do on a Bongo Board®.

Well, I’m pretty conservative, and I hate all conservative politicians and news outlets. And you can believe both parts of that statement, because I just said it, and I’m some guy in a comment section.

It’s true that the Fox propaganda channel leaves their viewers knowing less after they watch than they did before they watched. (And they didn’t know much before or they would have known better than to watch in the first place!) It’s like the old saying that the problem isn’t ignorance so much as so many folks knowing things that aren’t so.

There was a time that I would call FOX, RAT News, Roger Ailes Television, but now that he’s gone, it’s back to Full Of Xenophobes News.

Hen house outhouse, potato tomato…

I just call it FOX News. My relish for making up zany insulting names for stuff I don’t like seems to have been sated by my many misspent years of doing just that.

The only way to get all the news — TRUE NEWS — is Fox News Channel. And, yes, we who watch are very well informed.

Informed about that imaginary world where male dominated sexist right wing deniers are right about everything.

Glad I’m not in the tank for FOX News. I think it’s going to get at least a bit of flushing in the near future. Not enough to get it clean, but enough to disturb the water some and send some of the clingers down.

MSNBC is a commentary, not “News” outlet as Fox claims to be. While I can handle a little Shepherd Smith on occasion, it is the blatant twists on most of their “reporting” that disqualifies most of their broadcasts as “news”. As to CNN, Blitzer is the one who asked Bill Maher if he was nuts when Bill asked him if CNN was a liberal network.

Fox is entertainment,they are not required to tell the truth.

Sorry, I’m not an expert on this stuff but….

Are Fox News and 21st/20th Century Fox from the same creator?
