has just contradicted them.

They're slipping, they think this is the number 1 issue for the American people right now? Too bad they didn't care one bit about all the US Troops who were sent to the wrong country when Bush/Cheney lied and thousands of them died.

Their old tactics no longer work. Their reputation and Murdoch's precedes them except with the relatively small cult that follows them. Fox has become a parody of itself.

to be trying to spread benghazi hype when there are millions of people in their city and neighboring states who are seeking immediate help and relief. The viewers in the metropolitan area who don't have power need to know FOX news doesn't care about them

I don't know who that jerk on the right is, but he seems to believe that if you yell loudly, lie and talk over someone else, that means you win. Coached by rMoney perhaps?

I gotta' admit I haven't paid any attention to him in a long time, and hadn't taken him very seriously for even longer, so I guess I need to change my opinion. Anyone who stands up for the truth has my respect.

Geraldo did the United States a service and deserves credit for yelling the truth while standing on bullshit mountain.

edited to add: Now it's time for Shepard Smith to add his voice to the defense of our military, our intelligence agencies and the office of the President. He and Geraldo broke from the Fox bubble during Katrina. SS needs to also save his shred of integrity before it's too late. Geraldo did it very well and needs to go further with his frustration. We are all waiting for an apology from Romney and Issa and Fox. This has gone too far.

Just wow . . . amazing that they let him go on instead of cutting away to wingnutty propaganda. Geraldo truly kicked ass. He may be fired by this evening, but he just couldn't take the almost treasonous accusations spewing from FXNZ. Bravo!

Our president must endure slander and lies from your side of the fence. Thank you for trying, don't give up.

I've listened to GR since he came back on the radio on WABC. He started out quite fair and balanced, but slowly, you could hear the tension in his voice rise as more and more RW wackos were booked for his show. He was obviously being told to spout the RW agenda, and he wasn't comfortable doing it. He is employed by 2 RW broadcast companies, and he just attacked one of them here. I too have gained respect for Geraldo Rivera.

then one day, years ago, I couldn't believe my ears when he went into a right wing rant.

This is the first common sense /truth I've heard from him in years.

Personally, I think Fox News is dangerous for our Democracy and due to their multiple lies concerning international events, they are a threat to our national security.

...and shut his f***ing pie-hole up, so he could painfully listen to the facts for once.

We know they don't like hearing the facts.

Ailes is not going to put up with this. Geraldo is not playing by the 'rules'.
