Or just introduce her as “noted liar KellyAnne Conway” every time you say her name. How’s that for preemptive framing?
“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” -George Orwell, 1984.
The whole “alternative facts” thing is getting lots of attention. Not on the fox web site, of course, but most everywhere else.
To be fair to Fox News - the first and perhaps last time I’ve typed that - Chris Wallace got into it with Reince Preibus over the whole inauguration thing:
“I was there! I was there on the Mall!” Wallace said, speaking over Priebus. “I mean let me say first of all I think this is a ridiculous conversation, but there were huge areas. He said there were crowds all the way to the Washington Monument.”
“There was,” Priebus said. “I was sitting there.”
“Reince, there weren’t,” Wallace said.
No doubt that Fox does sometimes play like ‘fair and balanced’ - especially some of the on-air folks (others not so much, of course).
I was specifically referring to Conway’s absurdist statement that the press secretary was offering “alternative facts”, which was nowhere to be seen on the fox web site.

Chris Wallace is one of those on Fox who adds credibility, because he actually has some degree of integrity.

At first I was fucking shocked at this one. Could he really be THAT BLATANTLY racist? On second watch, you see that he has something in his right hand, and doesn’t even LOOK at Trump. On third watch, you see him actually move the scepter or whatever from his left hand TO his right hand as he enters the screen. This guy avoided Trump! That’s awesome!

Yeah, I got that from it, too. Trump was sort of avoiding the confrontation, too, so I bet the guy was telegraphing his intention to avoid him.
What’s the significance of the copper robot on the right behind the russian?

This was just tweeted by the official DoD account.
I don’t know who’s in charge of their social media, but they deserve a raise.

Downtrodden victim. Co-conspirator. Whatever. They’ll always have their love for each other.
If only my trophies looked at me the same way.

Remember. It’s patriotic to protest. It’s patriotic to speak out against tyranny. It’s patriotic to stand up for what’s right.
