Raz Simone would since he’s the “Warlord of Seattle” or whatever.
But it’s also probably near impossible to win, though I think he could make a pretty solid case of defamation if anyone ever could. Fox would fallback on “it’s not really news, no one believes it” or whatever and probably win though. Also Raz isn’t worth billions so fighting them in court isn’t likely.
Eh, the Tucker Carlson suit wasn’t dismissed rapidly there, and that’s the “Opinion” side of the house. Even if he wins, the CHAZ case would be even more likely to succeed, and if he loses, it’s pretty much a slam dunk.
The faked CHAZ images were on both the “regular” news and the “news” website. Also, Fox was clearly intentional in their effort to characterize this - it isn’t just a Host spouting off, there’s a Team with Intent behind it, which would need to be ok’d at multiple levels.
As I was channel surfing, I saw Steve Bannon, on Water’s show.
Bannon was pontificating about all the things that Biden did in his past life that he is going to run opposite now. He than prattled on about Trump’s terrific record on jobs and the economy.
Then he said (not an exact quote but close)
> "When Americans compare the chaos of Joe Biden with the steady leadership of Donald Trump…"
I started howling and cracking up.
I’ll probably not be around to shit on Steve Bannon’s grave, but @ArmandoPenblade should be. So please put this quote on his grave. It is the textbook definition of bullshit.
Lol. Imagine having to write this crap for Fox these days.
People may have qualms about going after Trump’s many infirmities, but there’s no denying that it’s causing the vain Trump and friends to waste valuable bandwidth on the subject, making him look foolish for caring so much. (“I can too drink water and walk down a ramp!”)
The Lincoln Project needs to release more of these ads. Some suggestions:
- Joe Biden can rub his tummy and pat his head at the same time. Yet for four years there’s been absolutely no evidence that Donald Trump can do the same. What is Trump hiding?
- In this time of national crisis, one question stands out before all the rest. Can Trump say, “She sells seashells by the seashore” three times fast?
- President Obama sang “Let’s Stay Together” at the Apollo Theater. Yet President Trump has neither had the courage to perform any of the works of Al Green nor the guts to make any live appearances at the Apollo Theater. All across the country, Americans are starting to wonder: why not?
The more time he (and Fox) spend feeding his insatiable need to avoid appearing weak, the weaker it makes him look. Keep it up, dude.
This is exactly why it’s good to take him down on these issues even though highlighting disability or sickness is bad. This eats away at his soul.
Wait, wat? Trump has a soul? Since when did that happen!? How did I miss that?
He doesn’t really. He has an ego, and his ego was momentarily crushed by the low turnout. I’m sure by now he’s externalized it and it’s completely the fault of others. His ego won’t allow him to accept an iota of self-blame.
That ego (and any superego) is dominated by his id.
We are governed by Monsters from the ID!

For more than a week, the news talked about the real risks posed by mass indoor gatherings during a pandemic! The nerve!

We all know that facts have a liberal bias.
That’s a switch from their first try - it was the wall-to-wall coverage of rioting in the streets all over the country. Trump rally-goers do watch the networks that were pushing that agenda.
Sure, he trash-talks Fox when he’s with you, CBN. But you must know in your heart that he’s gonna booty call Fox and Friends the minute you’re out of his sight. He’s never going to leave them for you.

When the Republican propaganda network isn’t propaganda-y enough for you…
Not to worry, OANN is poised to jump in and slobber up the scraps.

They sure are. It’s just crazy to think about. The right wing has become so deranged that a right wing propaganda network just isn’t enough, because every now and then some things just can’t be spun sufficiently or ignored.
Imagine going back 20 years and showing people (even many conservatives) Fox News as it is today. I honestly think they would be pretty shocked about how blatant it is. And then imagine telling these people that the network isn’t right-wing enough.

It’s all for show to demonstrate that Fox is “fair and balanced” so his deranged followers can point and shout “see how many times Trump has been mad at Fox News. They are the BEST news out there. Not like those other lamestream news outlets like MSNBC, CNN and NPR”
Trump: “Fox News wants to be politically correct all of a sudden…”
I love this so much. Fox News and Trump supporters kept on fucking that PC chicken and now they’ve fucked themselves into a corner. Admit you’re a racist or get off the Trump train. It’s what this presidency has been all along but now whatever shred of plausible deniability they had is simply gone.
