Fox News elevates allegation it’s a ‘fanatical terrorist propagandist organization’ Empty Fox News elevates allegation it’s a ‘fanatical terrorist propagandist organization’

Despite some Supreme Court rulings, yesterday was a pretty slow news day, which always puts 24/7 cable-news organizations in a bind. The shortage of topics is the only explanation for Fox News’s choice to highlight the comments of Russell Brand in a video (see above) ripping a political monologue that Jeanine Pirro unleashed on her show last Saturday night.

This is how Eric Bolling, co-host of the marvelous roundtable program “The Five,” played Brand’s rant: “First up, actor, musician and political provocateur Russell Brand has issues with Fox News and our own Judge Jeanine Pirro. Brand goes bananas in a ten-minute rambling and at times incoherent rant, comparing Fox News to the radical terror group ISIS.

Where Pirro references the notion of cutting “a deal with the devil, Iran,” Brand argues that “Iran is not the devil”; where Pirro says, “They are coming for us,” Brand says, “They’re not coming”; where Pirro says, “Bomb them, bomb them, keeping bombing them,” Brand says that bombing “creates more insurgents”; where Pirro says that ISIS is a “fanatical religious terrorist organization,” Brand says, “So is Fox News. It’s a fanatical terrorist propagandist organization.”

-> I happen to listen to Fox five stooges (actually four) comments yesterday on live radio, their conclusion was not to take him seriously. However, it looks like they gave this news item legs by playing it on their show.

That cross-eyed maniac Pirro indeed sounds like a Mullah brainwashing young kids into becoming suicide bombers.
