Fox News Smacks Charles Barkley

Posted by on October 29, 2008

Charles Barkley is a known left wing mouth piece who hits out at anyone that is a Republican. He also likes to cry about how “unfair” Fox News is. For the most part he is just following the other sheep in a quest to complain nonstop about Fox News but one big reason is that he gets some of his income from fellow liberal supporter Ted Turner owner of CNN.

In an interview Tuesday Charles Barkley stated the following:

“I watch CNN, they’re not fucked up like Fox,” Barkley told B&C.  “They are a mouthpiece for the Republican Party. I watch [Fox] a couple times when there is someone I want to see on there. But they’re corrupt.”

When asked whether he is just shilling for his parent company (TNT and CNN are corporate cousins), Barkley denies that he has to stick up for his team.

“Hell no, I don’t,” he says. “I like Wolf Blitzer and Anderson Cooper and John King. They at least try to give both sides.”

Nothing to special about that as it is pretty much the same talking points that all Liberals use to go after Fox News. The awesome part comes in the response from Fox News (from the same article):

But Fox News Channel doesn’t see it that way, as a network spokesperson fired back immediately.

“It’s hardly a surprise that Charles is a shill for a Turner owned network…. He obviously needs the steady paycheck to pay off his consistent gambling debts,” the spokesperson told B&C.

OH SNAP! Charles 0, Fox News 1. *zing*

Race Card? Go Fish.

First, here is a picture of a cow with a toy car stuck on its head.

Now, if the next part starts to get to you just look at the cow picture.

Actual commentary from CNN post debate coverage:

  • [Paul] Begala then said Palin’s praise of small town America hints at racism, the South, and killing Obama.
  • James Carville then chimed in and subtly hinted at massive riots if Obama loses going into the election ahead in the opinion polls.

So I guess I am trying to figure out what exactly these CNN commentators want me, the viewer (ok ok I wouldn’t actually WATCH CNN) to take away from this conversation? Apparently I am supposed to believe that things that Sarah Palin say about small town America are actually hints at racism, Southern culture, and killing Obama. And that if people don’t vote for Obama on Nov. 4th we should just simply expect race wars?

These are words coming from the face holes of the same people who on a daily basis claim that Republicans are using “fear” to try to win the election. I don’t know about Paul B. and James Carville but it sure does appear to me that if you are telling people that there are going to be race wars if they don’t vote for Obama .. who is playing the fear game? Who is dealing that Race Card? Well guess what… Go Fish. Because the ‘right’ isn’t the player holding that card.
