FOX FRAUDCASTING

There's little left to say after years of FOX Fraudcasting using its large cable TV viewership to pump racism like an IV line into America's living rooms and the brains of Ditto heads. Even though FOX may hire fetching blonde bimbos to sex up its propaganda machine, it is the war room for returning the white American male to the top of the paternalistic money and social pyramid.

To accomplish this goal, it has to convince the economically besieged white working class that minorities, particularly blacks, are more a threat to them than the rich white guys who are picking the pockets of what used to be a vibrant middle class in America.

FOX has become an essential tool in creating the myth of an American "center" that leans right, when the nation would topple over to the left if the truth had a chance to get its pants on before racially coded falsehoods made their way around the corproate media (hat tip to Mark Twain). Murdoch and his Goebbels, Roger Ailes (who started his career as a producer for Mike Douglas and then was the "maestro" who created the "new" Nixon during the 1968 election), use the emotional hot button of race to divide the economically short shafted into racial camps. They play the game of white entitlement with expertise, creating fiction and hyperbolic exaggerations in order to fan the flames of discord among America's diverse population. The truth doesn't matter to FOX viewers; it's the reassuring and rage provoking narrative of white victimhood that ignites its audience. The truth becomes whatever fits that narrative and stirs up dust, even if it is factually false or grotesquely distorted.

What is almost unfathomable is that Democratic Administration after Democratic Administration and Congressional Leadership has cravenly retreated in the face of FOX falsehoods time and time again. As an Obama Administration official allegedly told Shirley Sherrod in firing her (paraphrased): "Don't you realize, you're going to be attacked by Glenn Beck tonight?" Apparently, the psychopathological babble of Glenn Beck stirs fear in the Obama Administration, especially among the likes of Rahm Emanuel, who is only a tough guy when it comes to liberals but a coward and lackey when it comes to the right wing character assassination squads. Emanuel's strategy for dealing with the sleazy GOP media machine is appeasement.

FOX Fraudcasting does understand the visuals and technological marvels of modern television, which somewhat explains its omnipresence; it's like a well-made advertisement, and an advertisement it is for the racism, bigotry and oligarchical entitlement of the white male.

FOX Fraudcasting deserves to be named BuzzFlash Media Putz of the Decade. But then, of course, how could you deny Rush Limbaugh the honor, a man for whom racism isn't even coded; it's as blatant as a Confederate Flag at a Tea Party Rally.
