You know, the actual Soviet Union. They saw through Fox "News" just about the second they watched it. They were actually quite horrified.

They know propaganda when they see it.

Isn't what they tend to focus on in distract-o-media if they don't have their political agenda talking points dictating shots? I would guess sometimes their camera crews wouldn't be smart enough to follow their talking points but following their hormones instead.

I can't believe the police immaturely all turned their backs on De Blasio at the actual funeral. Who politicizes a funeral. Not even demonstrators did that. Did any cops show support at Garners funeral? How petty can one get. Pathetic. How many people have the cops killed in NYC in the past 4 years I wonder. They crack jokes about kids they kill and then act like this? They are like petulant children.

They are basing their demonstration on the lies of Far Right Wing® pundits (propagandists). They are treading on very dangerous ground, the police.

He is their fugging civilian boss. Do you know they had an aircraft fly over his residence with one of those messages stating they were turning their backs on him.

They are undermining democracy and this is being promoted by ReTHUGs
It is beyond dangerous.

They do not have the option of ignoring their civilian authority. This is way way out of line.

Yup - let's use a funeral to make a political statement. They are right there with Westboro Baptist Church.

They are the ones that ruled that Fox doesn't have to report the truth and can knowingly lie with impunity. Roberts count = worst SCOTUS ever. At least 5 of them are total traitors.

24. Commercial culture is telling everyone

Fox is connected to Hollywood so much, and we all know they are bought out by corporate America, politicians and the Arabs. Those in the programming for news understand the audience they have, a simpleton mind.

Notice news topics do not last longer than a few minutes then move on to the next topic, similarly as commercials move quickly from one to another.

If you look closely notice across the spectrum commercial culture is telling everyone how corrupt the health care industry is by advertising lawyers in an increasing wave to represent you in injuries, especially lawyers that will work or charge you only if you win the court case.

The thing to notice is those voices used in puppet or animal type commercials that appeal to all ages that become popular eventually after a mental framing to cement the public to a likeable voice. If that voice pulls in sales they go human. That popular voice, or pretty, or hot body goes real life.

Pamela Anderson will be a news anchor soon, hopefully…without a burka.

Clearly their agenda is to take down the current administration ( our government )with lies and demagogy.
They should be considered and treated as a public enemy.
If you look at the definition of subversive, it fits perfectly who Fox News are.
