Discussion: Fox News Regular Who Claimed To Work For CIA Gets 3 Years

Did Wayne say ‘CIA’, he meant FBI-yeah that’s it.

This dude hit the equivalent of a grand slam. Lied about his career, lied about his service record, tax cheat and not an expert on anything unless bullshit artist matters.

Wayne Simmons, Faux expert, perfect!

“Ellis expressed bewilderment that so many people had been taken in by Simmons’ assertions, which were backed up with no evidence.”

The Judge didn’t understand that one of the employment requirements at Foxnews is not having evidence to backup claims.

The purpose of Fox News is to constantly tell their white male audience that Democrats are traitors and liars. This is their sole objective. Any asshole they can sit in front of a camera who seems the least bit credible and is willing to lie about Democrats has a job for life on that network.

Ailes is toast. The Murdoch family is going to throw him under the bus.

Don’t count on it. Conservatives are intensely loyal to each other. Ailes did not cover Murdoch’s dalliances with his masseuse nor did he cover Bill O’Reilly’s sexual harassment of Andrea Mackris and other employees.

This Supreme Court is determined to protect corporations and destroy individual rights. I won’t be surprised if Gretchen is thrown in prison before Ailes moves a finger.

There are so many women coming forward now. This is Bill Cosby all over again. There is no way that Gretchen Carlson is going to be imprisoned.

He probably couldn’t admit to himself that he was never a CIA operative, let alone the court.

Anyway, this proves that the only qualification you need in order to be a Fox News contributor, is that you have the “correct” opinions.

It’s been called the “blizzard of lies” strategy pushed to new limits with each election season by conservatives everywhere over and above whatever the norm for politics were last year.

For Simmons, ex-jock, ex-fake CIA Fox News analyst, everytime someone caught him lying he was already 3 lies ahead in redefining his own reality. Lying defines the Republican Party and Fox "News brand and when caught they do a David Brooks, “both political party’s lie b/ c anything goes in politics.”

In the old Soviet Union, they had 2 major newspapers: Pravda, meaning Truth and Isvestia, meaning News

Russians would say that there was no news in the truth and no truth in the news.
