TYT: Fox News Has Bullsh*t Eruption After Obama Calls Bullsh*t On Their Bullsh*t



"President Obama enjoys elbowing Fox News from time to time. One such time came yesterday afternoon in an address at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill.: “There’s a reason fewer Republicans you hear them running about Obamacare — because while good, affordable health care might seem like a fanged threat to the freedom of the American people on Fox News, it turns out it’s working pretty well in the real world,” said the commander in chief.

That slight comes on top of the president slamming Fox News for obliterating common ground in American politics; for bringing a “destructive” viewpoint to politics; for propagating conspiracy theories.

The attacks signal that Fox News irks the president — that the network’s frequent attacks against him aren’t beneath contempt. Being in the cable-news business, Fox Newsers well understand that a tweak from the president elevates their network.“* Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola (TYT University), Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show) and Wes Clark Jr break it down.

The big reason why we have such a huge preponderance of bullsh*t in our media today is that the corporations who control our media allow this to happen to distract people from the real issues that really matter to their quality and way of life. If corporations didn't have such an inordinate amount of power, and such a strong voice in our society, to the point where it totally drowns out the very real concerns and voice of the people, we wouldn't have all this verbal waste clogging the air waves. So let's get corporate money out of politics, and out of the media. Go to Wolf-Pac.Com!
