TYT: Right Wing Media Doesn’t Hesitate To Score Points Off Dead Cartoonists

[WhoIsNumberNone]

"Fox News used the tragic attack on the offices of a satirical newspaper in Paris as an opportunity to attack New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio while blaming strict gun laws and political correctness for the tragedy.

The New York Times reported Wednesday that 12 people have died in an attack on the offices of a satirical newspaper, Charlie Hebdo, in Paris. French President Francois Hollande called the attack "a terrorist attack without a doubt," and France has reportedly "raised its security alert to the highest level."

On the January 7 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, national security analyst KT McFarland said that "really strict gun control policy" in France contributed to the attack and claimed that France's "politically correct " policies that treat everyone equally were also to blame. Host Elisabeth Hasselbeck echoed support for law enforcement policies that treat people unequally and added that New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio threatens security by demoralizing the New York Police Department and painting the NYPD with "a racist brush" when officers act on that principle."* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

1. First of all, FOX ain't news...it's clearly lies and propaganda

Of course those Foxers will not listen to their own words, as it gets in the way of pleasing Da Boss Man. I just ignor those non-news folks, but I did watch this Cenk video...ignor them.

2. Strategy

I'm not sure ignoring the voice of the Oligarchs is the best strategy. I think it's good to know what the message is that they are sending to their brainwashed faithful. Because of their power and money the Oligarchs won't be going away any time soon.

3. Jon Stewart said just yesterday that the shootings in Paris show the stark difference between

the assholes he skewers every night, and the terrorists.

Fox is trying their damnedest to prove him wrong.
