From Gerry Milligan...I am aware that FOX news bills itself as "Fair and Balanced" news. Today, when Jake Tapper and Chris Matthews were spending most of their hour talking about the Whistle Blower and the ramifications toward our country's national security, I switched over to FOX to see how they were spinning this story. Tucker Carlson led with the following: 1. A 15-minute piece about the student-led climate demonstration. Only, according to Carlson, it was adult-led and the adult leading it was AOC. Yeah, right, AOC influenced students in Cairo, Frankfort, and London (among others) 2. A five-minute piece about how Hungary was promoting family life with increased marriages, births and lower abortions, 3. A five-minute piece about how that fine, clean-cut patriot, General Flynn was being mistreated and a final story of an airplane crash, somewhere. That was all of the "Fair and Balanced" news I could stand and turned to ABC nightly news. Who, other than ultra right-wingers actually believe such drivel?
