Podcast #102 - Fox News: The South Carolina Primary, A Trump Town Hall and the Migrant Invasion

American political discourse has become more toxic than ever. In today's episode, Rick speaks with Frank Bruni, author of the new book, "The Age of Grievance," which examines the pervasive culture of outrage and grievance driving contemporary American politics.

Fox News tried really hard to intimidate jurors on Trump's criminal hush money trial. Jesse Watters seemed to make it his personal mission to reveal the jurors identities. Tammy Bruce said the world was destroyed but Trump will save the world. Sean Hannity lied about our alliance with Israel. Charlie Hurt compared Trump's trial to O.J. Simpson's double murder trial and said the criminal trial would be a laugh riot. As usual it was a whole lotta stupid.

In Part 3 of his series on Fox, Brian Daitzman covers the alarming methods, such as DARVO, employed by the network to control narratives, sow division, and erode trust in democratic institutions.

Juliet Jeske goes over FOX's coverage of 'Trump's Chick-fil-A Fake Out,' the death of O.J. Simpson & whatever else they can use to distract the public from the GOP disaster.

Brian Daitzman writes, "Amidst a global health crisis, Fox News, under the leadership of Suzanne Scott, demonstrated a marked indifference to the human toll caused by its dissemination of misleading information."
