Fox and the Holy Grail

Post by wserra »

Sorry, I can't help it. How many times have we, right here, quoted these exact lines? Did anyone think it was real?

Anyway, on Martha McCallum's Fox show Friday, while "covering" the Seattle CHAZ situation, she quoted "a social media post, since deleted" to illustrate the supposed dissension in the ranks of the protesters. Problem: the poster was quoting Dennis responding to King Arthur. See for yourselves. Moreover, while the post is deleted, other reports note that the following posts make it clear that it's a riff on a Python routine.

I have a suggestion for Fox's next piece: report on how the BLM protesters in Madrid were not expecting the Spanish Inquisition.

And then there are the photos they used that had the masked guy with the assault rifle photoshopped in . . .

OK, I'll stop now.

Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!

The fact that you sincerely and wholeheartedly believe that the “Law of Gravity” is unconstitutional and a violation of your sovereign rights, does not absolve you of adherence to it.
