Jane Hamsher of Firedoglake.com on C-Span's Washington Journal speaks with Republican caller, the mentality of the caller is very "telling" as Hamsher puts it.
The Republican Fox News network runs a hit piece to expose the "liberal media" on ex-journalist Carole Simpson who recently privately endorsed Hillary Clinton. The hypocrisy lies in that journalist that the hit piece is about is no longer a new reporter; however, there was no mention of Fox News "reporter" Republican Carl Cameron, whose own wife activity campaigned for Bush in 2000 / 2004.
Summary: On Fox News' Your World, author Marc Rudov claimed that "women are equal-opportunity domestic abusers" and asserted that the websites for the Department of Health & Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention feature statistics "showing women and men commit domestic violence equally." In fact, the CDC reports that "[e]ach year, women experience about 4.8 million intimate partner related physical assaults and rapes" while "[m]en are the victims of about 2.9 million intimate partner related physical assaults."
In his “My Word” segment this afternoon, Fox News pundit John Gibson applauded the White House’s decision to blow the identity of covert CIA agent Valerie Plame. “I’m the guy who said a long, long time ago that whoever outed Valerie Plame should get a medal,” Gibson said. “And if it was Karl Rove, I’d pin it on him myself.” Gibson argued the outing of Plame was justified because “this was about an anti-Bush cabal at the CIA” that needed to be “rooted out.” Watch it:
Summary: On The Big Story, a full-screen graphic appeared showing a picture of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the phrases "THE WAR ON ENGLISH!" "Just 'Say No' to America's Language" and "Why?" Throughout most of the segment, a graphic appeared in the lower right corner of the screen showing an image of Pelosi's face alternating with the phrase "SPEAK SPANISH."
Wednesday’s ‘Worst Person In The World’ begins with a Bronze to Kellyanne Conway for her overactive racism imagination, then a Silver to FOXNews host co-host John Gibson for leading his guest with “The Democrats have vowed more failure” and the question “Is ’stop the war’ a winner?” complete with graphics to match, and the Gold went to T. Boone Pickens for trying to weasel out of his one million dollar bet if anyone can prove ‘just one thing’ false in the Swift Boat Liars Veterans for Truth ads he helped finance.
