entertainmentweekly:

Last night, Jon Stewart got so sick of reporting the same old Fox News B.S. that he decided to try rapping about it instead (around the 4:20 mark):

“You’re pigeons on a statue/Leavin’ little puddles of lie behind you!”

Today in Jon Stewart calling Fox News out on obvious hypocrisy (in rap form).

If this was somebody who used the same type of rhetoric about violence against President Obama I would be against it… . This is inappropriate for a President and he goes back to his radical roots again and again and again. Ayers, Wright, Pfleger.
Sean Hannity • Saying a bunch of stupid crap about how Common (a pro-Obama rapper) is a bad influence and shouldn’t visit the White House and stuff. We don’t have much to add to this, other than this: SHUT UP YOU AREN’T A RAP FAN AND YOU PROBABLY DIDN’T KNOW WHO THIS GUY WAS UNTIL YOU WERE HANDED A CUE CARD WITH HIS NAME ON IT BEFORE THE SEGMENT. Also, you can’t criticize Common’s poetic license until you take back this approval of Ted Nugent’s non-poetic license, brah. source (viafollow)

  • bed bugs… A well known parasitic bug that feeds on human blood for nourishment — they had been declining for decades, but the 1990s saw a return of the bitey little punks. New York City in particular has battled them in recent years.
  • bug FOX! Media empires are not immune to bed bugs, either. In 2007, Fox News fought an infestation in their NYC HQ with bug sniffing dogs (!?), an entomologist, and the freezing agent Cryonite, as litigation today revealed. source

Apple iPhone tracking saga: When the story gets ahead of the truth
No, Fox News, it isn’t all about advertising. In fact, it’s actually all about cell phone towers, as the company said itself to in a letter to two congressmen TEN MONTHS AGO. Get the story right. Don’t continue to propagate falsehoods, guys. They said themselves that it’s to be able to provide up-to-date info on general locations so that they can figure out where your cell tower is when you log into FourSquare. Fox News has a history of getting these stories wrong and putting out scare headlines. A couple months back, they wrote about this video game called Bulletstorm, which gaming site Rock Paper Shotgun proceeded to tear apart — proving that the site kept sources in the dark about the actual details of the game, and that phrases in the story were completely misleading. So yeah. Please stop, Fox News.

  • rhetoric Donald Trump has been stoking the Birther fires lately, repeatedly questioning President Obama’s place of birth (and, by extension, the legitimacy of his presidency).
  • result Fox News has given Trump his own weekly segment, “Monday Mornings With Trump.” We mean “given” in the literal sense; Fox says that Trump isn’t being paid. source

» Fun fact: In announcing Trump’s new gig, Fox amusingly referred to the billionaire TV star as “The Donald.” Admittedly, this nickname format rolls off the tongue much better with Trump than with other 2012 contenders (The Mike, The Mitt, The Newt, etc).

“This is outrageous and absolutely hypocritical.  When you come to somewhere like Libya, you expect lies and deceit from the dictatorship here. You don’t expect it from the other journalists…” - CNN’s Nic Robertson regarding Fox News

A FOX News journalist and photographer were forced to squat in their Tripoli hotel room after anti-aircraft gunfire erupted in the Libyan capital Sunday morning.

This video serves as a reminder to folks who question Fox News’ hard journalism stripes. They put themselves on the line just as much as anyone else.
