During an appearance on Fox News, Democratic National Committee Vice Chair Michael Blake torched the network on Tuesday for keeping Tucker Carlson on the air despite his racist comments, which include falsely claiming that white supremacy is a “hoax.”
‘I brought you on here to bash YOUR people, not ours!’ Uh huh.
“Listen, I didn’t bring you on to bash our network,” Hemmer snapped. “So with all due respect, why don’t we just keep it on topic?”
“Geez,” Hemmer continued, “enough with the uppity, already!”
The more existential question is why does Fox even exist?
It is astounding to behold the Fox News - they try to present themselves as a “real news” organization and that Tucker, et. al, are part of a separate part of their programming - the editorial stuff… you know, America’s Newsroom™ and all - they’re totally different things… to seconds later use clips from Hannity’s latest ejaculations interspersed throughout the news.
And an equally existential question; Why does Tucker Carlson exist? . . .and Sean Hannity?
Wouldn’t the world be a better place without such as these?
To make money and propaganda for the new Nazis?
More like the Trump/GOP propaganda factory.
Are you suggesting that we have an unofficial propaganda factory? Here? In AMERICA!? Can’t happen here, it says so right on the box!

“There are so many ways to improve this country and build a better world, and I keep doing plenty of them, from working with young people to helping families lead healthier lives. But sitting behind the desk in the Oval Office will never be one of them. It’s just not for me.”
"The reason why I don’t want to run for president—and I can’t speak for Oprah—but my sense is that, first of all, you have to want the job,”

Fox News should be Ronan Farrow’s next investigation. Though we know enough already.
But I admire Mr. Blake for going into the lion’s den to tell them the truth to their face, with their viewers as witnesses.
To sell catheters to goldbugs.
Fox is a virulent cancer on the body politic.
“Listen, I didn’t bring you on to bash our network,” Hemmer snapped. “So with all due respect, why don’t we just keep it on topic?”
I wonder how he kept himself from adding “boy” to the end of that sentence? Must have been a Herculean effort on his part.
He should have asked the host “Why do you think Tucker raised this on his show?”
Hint: his core audience is white nationalists.
We’re only allowed to bring Donald Trump on to bash CNN!
Listen Hemmer, you are the topic. You and this misbegotten network and the measure of your overall worthlessness is giving knuckleheads like Carson a platform. If you can’t see that, then you’re part of the problem as well. It’s one thing to make a living, it’s quite another to make a living at the expense of the Republic.
I’d say that the odds are better than even that the Michelle in 2020 notion is a creation of the Russian disinformation campaigns and has been taken up by the right wing because it delivers the “2020 Democratic aspirants aren’t good enough to win” message in a way that is less likely to trigger mental defenses that would reject a direct statement of the message.
Typical bully, can dish but sure the hell can’t take it.
And does anyone believe what’s on the box?
