Yea, yea, I know. This is Fox News, so we should expect name calling to pass as news.
On his broadcast on Wednesday, Sean Hannity showed a clip of Obama’s former Senior Adviser David Axelrod, correctly saying that in the past six years of President Obama’s presidency, there have not been any “major scandals.” Yes, that is a correct statement but this is Fox News and like expected, on cue, Sean Hannity began naming all the man-made hysteria Fox News pushed as “scandals.” These include “scandals” like Benghazi, Healthcare.gov, the IRS so-called scandal, Fast and Furious, etc., etc., etc.
Among the panelists was Geraldo Riveria, who timidly began saying the things Hannity named were not real scandals, but it was another panelist named Bernard McGuirk who stole the show with his personal attack on the Rev. Al Sharpton, criticizing the amount of times he visited the White House as “the real scandal.”
“You know, they didn’t go anywhere so they weren’t ‘scandals’ per say, they were scandalous,” Bernard said, dismissing Hannity’s list. He went on to name a few more so-call “scandals” that Fox News harped on in the past, like the apparent “flirting” by Obama in South Africa when he attended Nelson Mandela’s funeral and another apparent “flirting” edition by the president in California.
Then Bernard said this: “But I would say this. Speaking of scandalous, the biggest scandal of the whole administration is the fact that he has Geraldo’s – to borrow from Joe Biden – Geraldo’s butt-buddy Al Sharpton, that sleazy assclown Al Sharpton to the White House…,” to which Sean Hannity is heard saying, “that’s true, 85 times.”
This is news! This is Fox News!
