1. It has already been discredited
The police did NOT say that political remarks were made. I don't have time to look it up but there were posts about the story unraveling yesterday.

Of course, Fox is not going to point that out. They are too wedded to their victim mentality.

9. BRUTAL, BUT NOT POLITICAL
".... Conservative bloggers have been buzzing lately about a terrible assault in New Orleans last week, which they've argued was anti-Republican violence. Yesterday, the story started generating broader attention from major news outlets.

But instead of validating the conservative speculation, the focus on the story ended up largely debunking the partisan allegations."

3. I had wondered what O'Keeffe and his posse were up to!
Couldn't help but notice the market ticker in the bottom right. More than a hundred points being lost while they discuss how persecuted and victimized they are. I may have just an associates in journalism, but I can't call folks who embed themselves in that persona while shedding journalistic ethics what they claim to be.

8. Wait, Fox news doesn't feel any responsibility for the lack of political civility in this country?!!
Are they out of their fucking minds?!! What did they think was going to happen by spending 24/7 implanted their mindless drone base with hared and lies, peace on earth?

17. Fake News needs new actresses.
Notice how ugly-faced they get when they try to fake outrage?

A really good actress wouldn't grimace like that.
