Nas - Sly Fox

by Arno on August 9, 2008

We definitely need more artists raising attention to the farce we call “media”.

Fox News And The Ongoing Beating of War Drums

by Arno on July 27, 2008

Here’s another example of the type of people Fox News has on, and where they themselves of course don’t make policy, many Americans watch this channel and take things at face value. How anyone could seriously advocate for War is beyond me. I just don’t understand how Neo Cons can think that American interests will truly be served if we attacked Iran.

The Fox News Way

by Arno on July 20, 2008

Fox News showing how very little they have to do with “news” and “journalism”. Even their own anchors are questioning the headlines…

Lieberman Weak Partner for McCain

by Arno on July 20, 2008

Joe Lieberman, the traitor of this own party, the turn coat that has shown the American people quite clearly who and what he really cares for, which is himself. He’s currently supporting John McCain in his presidential bid and I must say that I would pretty unhappy with things if Joe Lieberman was my wingman. Aside from the fact that he has absolutely no charisma, he’s just a regurgator of campaign talking points that were being fed to him by the Republicans. Does Lieberman still have friends? Here he is on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace and Senator Evan Bayh.

Surrogates As News Anchors, The Ultimate Conflict Of Interest

by Arno on June 13, 2008

We live in the United States. A country where what applies to the people, doesn’t apply to the news media, or politicians. Years ago, the German secretary of defense lost his job, after it was discovered that he had use the Defense departments plane to go on a private vacation in the Mediterranean. Of course these types of things are normal for our politicians. Nearly every politician in this crooked political system we call “Democracy” receives such favors.

The argument is nothing new but it deservers repeating and that’s the fact that there is no accountability in this country. I have an unpaid Hospital from a few years ago and guess what? It’s still on my credit record. If I had committed a crime years ago it would also still follow me to this day. These rules don’t seem to apply when it comes to the media and which people are involved.

Sean Hannity for me is the epitome of what’s wrong with this country. First of all, he is no journalist so his credibility should be taken lightly, as he has nothing to make himself credible. Secondly, his only mission is to make money, not to deliver a service to this country by keeping the citizens informed. The most striking part about Sean Hannity though is the fact that he’s actively campaigning for one of the people he reports on - John McCain. Recently Fox News fired one of their production assistants, Jennifer Locke because she openly said that she was supporting John McCain and what’s more important, said she had voted for him and assured him that he was going to win. Where I come from, this is called being in bed with the people you’re reporting on. It also shows that under no circumstances, can Fox News claim it is fair and unbalanced. Sean Hannity, Karl Rove, Oliver North and others are the exact opposite of being unbalanced and ultimately Sean Hannity needs to be fired just like the production assistant. Conflict of Interest!!!

UTAH Mayor Calls Out Fox and Friends

by Arno on June 9, 2008

Here’s another example that shows what a bunch of crooks and liars Fox News are. I wish that for once they would have been as critical with the information the government fed us as they were with that Mayor. The blond anchor even said at some point “that’s an ongoing investigation”….that’s just hillarious because it shows how incapable they are of their own opinion and how dictated everything at that network is.

The main notion that Fox and Friends is trying to get across is that as Mayor he has to be fully welcoming of the arrival of the president and I have to applaud him for standing up and saying NO to that argument.

Stupid Headlines: Fox News

by Arno on May 27, 2008

I just heard a headline on Fox News that said “See how the left wing blogs are treating Jenna Bush and Ted Kennedy differently” - that shit makes me laugh. I would hope they treat a man in his 70’s with diagnosed brain cancer and the daughter of one of the most corrupt and failing presidents in this country’s history differently.

If You Work For Fox News You Get To Sell A Book

by Arno on May 6, 2008

I hate to start articles out like this, but here I am sitting at work, watching Fox News (I’m waiting for the repeat of Keith Olberman’s Count Down) pretty much because no “news” network like Fox, manages to give so much material to write about.

I’m looking at Oliver North who I guess finally joined the club of those fox members that are publishing a book. I had a cousin that worked at Fox News for a few years and she told me that the overall climate at Fox is that of fear - keeping people in fear of losing their job and other issues. Perhaps that’s why so many people on Fox are pushing their own merchandising campaigns, because they know that they don’t have much time to live at the network or with for that matter.

Here are some of the people I can think of that are selling books on Fox News:

sean hannity
allen colmbes
bill o’reilly
oliver north
john gibson
neil cavuto

North was at the center of national attention during the Iran-Contra Affair, during which he was a key Reagan administration official involved in the clandestine sale of weapons to Iran. The sale of these weapons served both to encourage the release of US hostages and to generate proceeds to support the Contra rebel group. Vice Admiral John M. Poindexter and his deputy, Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North secretly diverted to the Nicaraguan Contras millions of dollars in funds received from a secret deal - the sales of anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles to Iran - in spite of Reagan’s public pledge not to deal with the nation.

source: Wikipedia: Oliver North

Now I know Oliver North is an accomplished decorated war veteran and for that anyone deserves the utmost respect. However just because you were in a war zone for many years doesn’t give you the right to act against rules of law or morale. I’m finding so many sources as I do some research for this post that shows what a crook he is and how he’s been involved in shady business tactis, that I think he shouldn’t be seen on TV selling a book, getting a paycheck or anything else for that matter.

Back to my initial point though and that’s the fact that everyone on fox news gets to sell a book. I think it doesn’t help the credibility of a news agency when their employees are pushing their personal products. Bill O’Reilly is of course the biggest whore of them all and please don’t respond and tell me it’s all for charity - we all know that’s not the case. None of these socalled conservatives do anything for the common good, their main objective is to reap most of the benefits of the system without giving back to it. Republicans, as we know from the past twenty years or exploitation, aren’t a group of people with political interests in mind - they only have one thing in mind and that’s profit.

Greg Gutfeld Seems To Have Lost A Knife Fight

by Arno on May 2, 2008

So here I am working my regular night shift, flickin’ through the channels and I stop at Fox’s “Red Eye”. It’s an extremely stupid show, just like most things on TV except for discovery and national geographic. The only reason I halted because it looks like Gutfeld got in a knife fight and either he didn’t bring any knives of his own, or just that bad of a knife fighter. Looks pretty shitty, and with most people I wouldn’t even dedicate a post, but I find that guy to be such an idiot that I think it’s totally fair game considering what a jack ass he is himself and how much he makes fun of other people.

Wondering what happened to his face though - geez I can’t believe they let him in front of the camera the way he looks.
