The REAL problem: Trump supporters watch different news than we do

[LibraLiz1973]

We all have a concept of this. Certainly we've discussed the Fox & Breitbart issues. I've always taken the stance that people who watch said "news" are just pathetic. While I certainly don't think they're at the genius level, what I've seen on Fox every time I've checked is alarming. To someone who believes Fox is "Fair and Balanced" - and believes Trump is some kind of business genius- this looks like accurate news. Their president is telling them all other news is fake. They're inhaling the kool aid at warp speed and there seems to be no way to dial back the crazy so real news gets in.

This giant story about Flynn is breaking tonight. It's all over CNN, NBC, MSNBC, ABC, BBC America- but you know who doesn't give a crap? Fox News. It isn't the top story there because they're burying it.

A friend sent me a link to the first 4 plus minutes of O'Reilly's show tonight and it.was.bananas.

It's an absolute must watch. This is, in my opinion, a call to violence. The last 45 seconds in particular.

I hate watching this shit but I think it's necessary to be aware of what they're peddling. We need to know what the other people are saying and doing or we aren't prepared with FACTS.

What he said in this open was mind boggling. Do you see what he did there? It's crazy! We wonder why the Republicans are so out of touch with reality- this is why! Fox News is propaganda. It's lies, distortions & deception. At the end of this piece he says "There will be a breaking point". In my view this is no different than when Trump said maybe the 2nd Amendment would come into play if Hillary were elected.

I looked at the bad place tonight - Freep- and it was as pathetic as you'd think. They aren't bothered at all by the Flynn news. I'm sure you're shocked to know they're blaming it on us. Someone in one of their threads said this happened because Trump wants to use the Logan Act on Obama.

What in the alternate reality hell is wrong with these people?!?!

1. Let them ride the Orange Buffoon all the way to the bottom

When this entire Russia story comes out and drumpfy is exposed as a traitor in yeti's clothing, I do hope they blame us evil liberals for his takedown. It will be more fun that way...

2. That's the point I'm making. I don't believe they'll ever accept that

They are that far gone. The hate O'Reilly spews in that piece is par for the course where he's concerned. He makes liberals sound like murdering thugs. The last 45 seconds is 100% pushing the 'lets pick up our guns and take care of the liberals' agenda.

Its freaky.
