Bread & Butter of Hate News

Do you ever question motives of the producers of Fox News? Are they reporting the news or fanning the hate flames of the right wing? In a story about the rise of extremism in America, Fox News provided links to two Department of Homeland (DHS) Security assessment reports which both contained the following warning:
(U) LAW ENFORCEMENT INFORMATION NOTICE: This product contains Law Enforcement Sensitive (LES) information. No portion of the LES information should be released to the media, the general public, or over non-secure Internet servers. Release of this information could adversely affect or jeopardize investigative activities.
By clicking the links the reader is redirected to the DHS documents in pdf format. The reports assess both Right Wing Extremism and Leftwing Extremists. Despite this warning, Fox News links readers to these documents (one located on the The Liberty Papers site and the other on the Fox News server). It seems that this notice and warning has no effect on the Fox News agenda to fan the flames of hatred from the right toward the left. The tension and bitter disagreement (most often outright hatred) of those on the right against the left is Fox News' bread and butter. They serve their sour bread smeared with a bit of hate flavored jam and feed it to their readers and viewers who gobble up every single word. Fox News feeds its intellectually malnourished , fact deprived and misinformed following their own special flavor of hate speech poorly disguised as news reports. Of course, Fox News slants the story about the DHS reports as an attack by a left wing government against conservatives. Nothing could be further from the truth, yet the bellies of the right wing are once again filled with the sour food of hate. The publication of reports by DHS despite warnings that distribution to the public could "jeopardize investigative activities" demonstrates the lengths that Fox News will go to further their agenda - which the best I can figure is to make Rupert Murdoch (who owns Fox News and the New York Post) the wealthiest human being in the Universe.
Fox News should change their catch phrase "fair and balanced" to reflect their intentional biased reporting by the obviously unbalanced personalities. the ultimate goal which is to increase the bottom line of Murdoch's "balance sheet" at the expense of truth.

  1. The rhetoric on the right is becoming angrier every day. Everyone should keep their eyes and ears open.
