Just in case you missed it, this is the IJT story about Fox News personalities and the resignations of Jonah Goldberg and Steve Hayes…in our opinion two left-minded Trump-haters. For us,” it’s good riddance!’
The interesting things are, #1 Bret Baier seems to be (and, in my mind really is) in sympathy with the views of these two.
The other thing is, the last sentence confirms a story earlier by I believe, Bonchi at RedState, who said Goldberg and Hayes were not going to be reassigned when their contract was up.
However, parsing the meat of the two a**holes statement referring to Tucker Carlson’s special about events during the overwhelmingly peaceful January 6th protest by patriots at our nations capitol and law enforcement’s response:
“The special—which ran on Fox’s subscription streaming service earlier this month and was promoted on Fox News—is presented in the style of an exposé, a hard-hitting piece of investigative journalism. In reality, it is a collection of incoherent conspiracy-mongering, riddled with factual inaccuracies, half-truths, deceptive imagery, and damning omissions,” the two said in a statement.
Fox News was hip deep with the dominant media’s pearl-clutching narrative about the protestors being insurrectionists or something. Carlson has challenged that narrative with facts that were not reported and corrected items that were reported. The “conspiracy mongering” was promulgated by Fox News et al, their reporting was riddled with “factual inaccuracies, half-truths, deceptive imagery, and damning omissions”
They continued, “And its message is clear: The U.S. government is targeting patriotic Americans in the same manner —and with the same tools—that it used to target al Qaeda.”
The two a**holes are oblivious at best if they are not aware of the scope and methodologies used to locate protestors who at most would be guilty of misdemeanors not to mention the “shock and awe” tactics to arrest them and the domestic rendition regarding their incarseration
“This is not happening. And we think it’s dangerous to pretend it is. If a person with such a platform shares such misinformation loud enough and long enough, there are Americans who will believe—and act upon—it,” the statement added.
Right back at you regarding the narrative foisted on the American public but if they have objections by all means put it out there but expect rebuttal form Tucker Carlson.
The duo said that Fox News does “real reporting.” However, they claimed that “voices of the responsible are being drowned out by the irresponsible.”
These are insufferable beltway swamp denizens with their heads up their a**es. Speaking of which:
