Fox 'News' Fans Flood VR With Death Threats, F-Bombs, Racist Email Following Front Page Article on 'Stop The Chamber' Campaign

Those "conservative" Fox "News" fans sure do use a lot of F-words in their death threats. We're used to various death threats by now, of course, even from Drudge's poodle, Andy "Big Government" Breitbart, but those socially "conservative", American "values"-lovin', Fox "News" viewers have really outdone themselves this time.

On Monday night, FoxNews.com featured a story on the latest announcement from VR's StopTheChamber.com campaign, concerning the offer of a $200,000 reward for insider information leading to the arrest and conviction of Tom Donohue, the CEO of the right-wing corporatist lobbying group, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Here are just a few samples of some of the friendly emails sent to VR in response, from those good "conservatives" of Fox "News" willing to send out death threats, we'll guess, in support of the criminal millionaire corporate lobbyists and billionaire corporations of the U.S. Chamber who've spent more money buying Congress members than anybody else in the country.

These, apparently, are the Fox "News" "conservatives" -- Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly's "patriots" and Sean Hannity's "great Americans" -- as almost all of them came in at the same time that Fox's story on VR's reward offer was posted on the front page of FoxNews.com. The ones containing threats of violence have been given to the FBI (PDF) in D.C., along with a request for an investigation to find out if the Chamber itself might be behind the hit campaign.

(Many of these are not safe for work!)…

5. Stories like these remind of

the old Simpsons episode when the flim flam man comes to town and sells Springfield a monorail.

Right wing radio and "news" sources being the flim flam men and the townspeople of Springfield, all the "patriotic" Americans who get their "facts" from the flim flam men.

If only conservatives in America were fictional cartoon characters.

6. How "Christian" of them.
