Are they living in some parallel universe? Are the MAGAt $$$ so important?

Either way, deliberately riling up the uneducated into insurrection mood cannot be a good thing.

 

[VinnyVeritas]

Oh yeah. And nobody else in the Media has a bias for, or against, any particular element of politics.

 

[VinnyVeritas]

Is not The Wrap a Left-leaning source of information?

That Chyron should read:
"Duly elected president speaks while insurrectionist piece of shit is held accountable for his many criminal actions."

Buh ... buh ... but whatabout!?

 

[zipman]

Buh ... buh ... but whatabout!?

Because "bias" is the same thing as "bizarre extremism."

Show me a Chyron from CNN claiming Trump was a dictator -- even when he was threatening your penis substitutes without due process.

MAGADONIA!

Is there a point being made there?

The same screenshot is on hundreds of websites, I chose that one at random. FWIW I'd believe that it was done by some now ex-employee with a beef.

Fox News Responds to Banner Calling Joe Biden 'Wannabe Dictator'​

https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.thedailybeast.com.icoThe Daily Beast|3 hours ago
I wrote Fox News last night asking for comment on it airing an alert last night calling president Biden a "wannabe dictator." The company just responded with the following statement and zero additional explanation: "The chyron was taken down immediately and was addressed.

Fox News stirs outrage after labeling Biden a 'wannabe dictator.' The network says it 'addressed' the situation​

https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.msn.com.icoCNN on MSN.com|2 hours ago
Fox News on Wednesday acknowledged that an onscreen banner calling President Joe Biden a "wannabe dictator" was inappropriate and said it had taken steps to address the situation internally.

 

[butters]

how long was the chyron aired for before its removal?

just curious as to what fox's "immediately" means

okay, apparently 27 seconds... so they were pretty quick on that but should have been quicker

The chyron appeared onscreen for 27 seconds during Fox News’ primetime programming, showing up at the tail end of Fox News Tonight and staying on for the first 15 seconds of Hannity.

The Fox News producer who authored the network’s chyron Tuesday night labeling President Joe Biden a “wannabe dictator” has parted ways with the company, two sources told The Daily Beast on Thursday.

Former Tucker Carlson Tonight managing editor Alexander McCaskill, who features prominently in a toxic work environment lawsuit by a former colleague, is no longer with the network—a topic that Carlson himself discussed in the latest episode of his Tucker on Twitter video series.

carlson supports him of course... but fox booted mccaskill out without the 2 week's notice period, lol. fox doesn't want another big sting of fines just yet. i'd like to believe fox did it out of a sense of decency and propriety... but this is fox, so nah...just covering their own arses.

The ousted Fox News host said that after the chyron ran, “the women who run the network panicked.”

“First they scolded the producer who put the banner on the screen,” Carlson claimed. “Less than 24 hours after that, he resigned. He had been at Fox for more than a decade. He was considered one of the most capable people in the building. He offered to stay for the customary two weeks, but Fox told him to clear out his desk and leave immediately.”

The editors and journalists of FOX News know that this is not true, but they know what their viewers want to hear, so they tell them lies they want to believe.

Tucker Carlson Takes Aim at Former Bosses Over Biden Chyron Reaction​

The former Fox News anchor hit out at the network after it let go a producer responsible for a strapline that described the president as a "wannabe dictator."

 

[butters]

and now jesse watter's show (guest-hosted by pete hegseth) producer is airing some shit:

From an interview of ex-president Obama by Christiane Amanpour, what Mr Obama ACTUALLY said:

“If you’re watching Fox News or following some right-wing radio host or getting Facebook feeds within that bubble, your reality is different than if you read the New York Times or watch your program,” the former president said. “And when people are getting such fundamentally different facts, or what they think to be facts and their world views so skewed in one direction or another, then it’s very hard for democracy to work.”

he also warned of the dangers of silencing critics, something that didn't get mentioned in the segment even as they ran this chyron

OBAMA: YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED TO CRITICIZE ME


not sure this will create enough of a stir to cause repercussions, but maybe a few quiet behind the scenes words??

They called him a wanna-be dictator? Oh, the humanity!

Why would you be appalled when the MSM set the bar so low with the things they called Trump?

The Left has turned this into a new normative behavior. What I see here is them being pissed that FOX uses their tool.

Would that they had called Trump on what he really was! Would that they had.

You should post empirical evidenced examples rather than rely on emotional appeals by anecdote.

Wallace listed examples of recent Trump coverage that had made him uncomfortable: a CBS Evening News intro referring to “presidential statements divorced from reality”; a tweet from a New York Times reporter asking, “Would you keep working for a boss who consistently refuses to distance himself from virulent racists, anti-Semites, and white supremacists?” Wallace warned that journalists should approach their work as “umpires… objective witnesses to what is going on.” He added, “We shouldn’t be drawn into becoming players on the field, trying to match the people we cover in invective. It’s not our role.”
