MMFA: "Progressive Hunter"
Media Matters had this article on their web site this morning about the guy who was planning to shoot up the Tides Foundation and the ACLU;

"There's only one conservative channel," he adds. "That's Fox. All the other ones are all liberal channels."

At one point, I ask Byron if he thinks Fox is worthwhile.

"I'm not gonna say anyone is worthwhile," he replies. "I would have never started watching Fox News if it wasn't for the fact that Beck was on there. And it was the things that he did, it was the things he exposed that blew my mind. I said, well, nobody does this."


Do we need any more proof that the right wing media is inciting all these extremists? I think not.

1. Williams reminds me of the folks attracted to Nazism
Strange how Beck's followers seem to be the very image of the Nazi thugs who he would project onto progressives. Unemployed, half-educated ex-felons like Williams: loaded guns ready to go off with systematic lies and propaganda.

2. Maybe it should be a condition of parole/probation...
....for some people that they not watch FOX News, nor do they go on to certain conservative web sites.

4. It's not unheard of
For example, many gang members and militia types are forbidden to associate with certain folks.
