Thing Two: one million Fox viewers who LOVED Glenn Beck excitedly flock to the Rachel maddow show.(Just in case you're wondering where all of Rachel's new viewers came from, all of a sudden. I have a feeling Fox won't be poking any more fun at Rachel Maddow. Not unless they want to boost her ratings any higher than they already are.)

(5,954 posts)Fox News was created for the express purpose of feeding bullshit propaganda, dog whistle politics, and marching orders to the one third of the population that constitutes the right-wing echo chamber. (And that third STILL loves Donald Trump, as shown by his 35% approval ratings.)
But the whole propaganda machine breaks down if the dumbass PRESIDENT starts re-tweeting the garbage they're talking about, which was not meant for GENERAL consumption; and then the mainstream media is forced to fact-check it. Something they never did before, because they didn't want to give them free advertising.
I'm loving this. Every time Trump re-tweets something he heard on Fox, they end up looking almost as stupid as he does.

(5,954 posts)Except that she spends her show connecting Donald Trump to crooked Russian kleptocrats through ONE degree of separation. As opposed to Beck connecting Barack Obama to Adolph Hitler through SIX degrees of separation, always via that evil bastard Kevin Bacon.

(960 posts)Not trying to equate the actual content or anything. Since I'm pretty sure Maddow didn't spend a lot of time and money pitching the viewer an idea for a libertarian freedom town but accidentally made a marxist utopia like Beck did.

So sad. Does anyone tune in to these idiots at all? I mean, Rachell was hitting 4 million? Do they get 4000?

(2,809 posts)As they're still gleefully, guilelessly obfuscating the GOP's elephant in the room issues, appealing only to the ardor without the teardrops Beck resorted to when even his own chalkboard maze confused him.
As opposed to Rachel, who could run intellectual circles around all of "these FIVE".

(4,973 posts)They are commissioned to lull you into a false sense of security while whomever they provide cover craps all over our constitution and country. Fux Nooze spends the least amount of time on research and just parrots bullcrap sent to them by fake news outlets. Why anyone watches that is beyond me..
