WTF is wrong with this guy?

The self-proclaimed Fox News “terror expert” who described Birmingham as a “no-go area for non-Muslims” has compared what he has gone through in the wake of the comments to waterboarding.

That is kind of awesome. They mocked him right and proper. Unfortunately, the right wing US media (not, Fox News, which is the WingNut Media), won't acknowledge that fact.

Here is something interesting to show to the average Fox Propaganda viewer. A company by the name of Movoto LLC, a real estate company, conducted a study of all crime committed over the last decade and posted the results of what they found to their blog.


How Crime In America Has Changed Over The Last Decade By Movoto Real Estate

The darker the red, the more dangerous the state is. The lighter the green, the safer it is. Based on my understanding of the blog, the red shaded states have crime rates higher than the national average with the green shaded states being the opposite. Notice which states are shaded in red.

Fox News Analyst Claims ‘London is 85% Gay’ - The Daily Currant

From the linkAlthough Fox News later apologized for those erroneous comments, the incident typifies the fact-free hyperbolic scaremongering that has come to define the network’s brand.

I just can't even imagine how people can watch Fox News seriously at all. It's not even just that they're lying and the viewers are in some sort of alternate reality bubble, but so many of the things they say are just so off the wall that you actually have to be stupid to believe them. Not just 'misinformed,' but straight up stupid. And people who repeat them without checking their facts first are stupidity vectors.

“Sean, 85 percent what I’m hearing is from my expert sources in the U.K.,” he responded. “Some say it could even be higher. Supermodels visiting from other countries are unable to find dates because all the men are into each other. It's a real mess.”
Assuming those supermodels are ladies themselves, they should be able to get dates with other ladies.

Supermodel dating crisis: SOLVED.

The Daily Currant takes the #1 slot on the 9 worst fake news sites list on Gizmodo. They should have ten, with #1 being Fox News.
