Last night on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart took on the tragedy in Norway and the response to it by the right-wing echo chamber in this country as exempli- fied by Fox News.
Yes, who in his right mind would ever associate the Norwegian assassin's actions with Christianity? Well, only anyone who had read his manifesto or read a description of it; anyone who had seen his description of himself as a crusader for Christianity.
But, of course, with Fox News, it is all about the victimhood and we know who the victims are, don't we? That's right - it's the right-wing nutosphere. Never mind - Fox News is here to call out all those mean old liberals who beat up the poor little innocent fascists - er, conservatives.
How fortunate we are to have Jon Stewart to speak truth to the power that is Fox News. Unfortunately, those who really need to hear the message aren't listening, because they only watch Fox News.
And can I hear a big AMEN! :D :D :D :D
