I hate it when I hear someone on CNN, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, or anyone else, calling it fox news or "conservative" media. It is neither news, nor is it conservative. It is extremist propaganda, and it has been tearing this country apart for more than 20 years. It's worse than yelling "fire" in a crowded theater, because it gets FAR MORE PEOPLE KILLED!!

Whether it is racist cops, insurrectionists trying to overthrow our government, or just gun nuts that decide to go on a killing spree, it all goes back to right wing propaganda! It's all lies, and it has to stop.

The Biden Administration is not generating controversy and headlines that demand coverage in the way Trump Admin did. Joe is flying straight and using common sense. So FOX could become the controversy with the outrageous stories they spew nightly.

But to be fair, several hosts on MSNBC have been calling out Fox for their lies for a few years now. I know Rachel does on a regular basis. Others do, too.

It was out of fear that The Oath Keepers or other crazies would be out in force.

I really do Wonder though if America one isn't more insane than Fox.

Laura Migraine is literally wearing a repurposed nazi flag, is she not?

Hint: it's not worse to be called a racist than it is to be a racist.

For calling the election for Biden. The Fox gang is ramping up the racist horse shit in a desperate attempt to get back their base.
