This dweeb... and he was only a 'victim' in that he may have gotten really really tired after riding his bicycle to the school after the shootings were over.

“Almond replied: “I think that is your entire economic model. Your entire economic model is to scare your viewers, that is your whole gig.” “
That is the economic model of the evening opinion shows on all the news networks. They appeal to emotions and try to convince you that today’s outrage is the worst thing ever.
these is no news on teevee
This dweeb... and he was only a 'victim' in that he may have gotten really really tired after riding his bicycle to the school after the shootings were over.
He was right about one thing. US media is all about fear mongering. Have a look at the COVID coverage in the last three years as an example. Look at all the stuff they ran with in an attempt to frighten the population into submission. It continues to this very day. The fear mongering is undeniable throughout the media, including Fox News. Not one single media outlet took the opposing view or even spoke of it until recently.
Only show I watch on Fox is Tucker. The rest is dead to me.
If she has an apple then also has a banana.
He's not wrong there. ALL "news" is fear-based.
Notice how often the words "fears" "frightening" "shocking" "concern" "worry" "doubt" are used in broadcasts and headlines.
“Graham interrupted to say: “I’m not trying to scare my viewers, football is not about politics.””
Stupid bwitch.
I was no fan of Bush, but this should have been a red flag.
Also, anybody who is or was a short story writer published by little presses probably isn't a good fit for Fox News.
But wait, there's more. Do a websearch for "Steve Almond Trump" and see what the guy has said and written. Things like "Donald Trump's Nihilism, And Our Imperiled National Soul" and "Mining Trump's 'Heart of Darkness'." No way would any halfway competent staffer have picked him for Ingraham's show.
That’s the one thing I love about Levin on his Fox show...he sits back and let’s his guests talk uninterrupted.
“He’s not wrong there. ALL “news” is fear-based.”
SHARK WEEK!!!!!!
She was right to throw him out. He obviously has a hate on for Laura Ingraham. He took the opportunity of being on her show to make a cheap off-topic insult that had NOTHING to do with football injuries.
The NFFL (National Flag Football League) would change everthang.
They have to talk about this case or it will look like fox is covering up. May as well have a fight on the air about something that has nothing at all do do with what happened here.
“Only show I watch on Fox is Tucker. The rest is dead to me.”
Kudlow, I’ve been listening to him for years. Before 45, before Fox. Him and Clarke Howard. Motley fool is no nonsense as well.
Another general rule is anything out of the Chicago School of Economics is worth a listen.
I read the posted text from Newsweek. Laura was staying on topic, and he was not.
I stopped my subscription to Newsweek years ago. They had a dishonest, slandering, left-wing mindset than permeated all their articles. I see no indication that they have changed.
I feel the same way. I'm a USC Trojans fan, and although I admire the passing artistry of quarterback Caleb Williams, I miss the days when we played power football and when the Trojans, with their Power I offensive formation, squared off against Ohio State with its Full House backfield or Texas A&M with its Wishbone.
Didn’t watch this interview, but have watched Ingraham and can not tolerate her. She lost me with her last Trump interview, she broadsided him numerous times. The other night in discussing the McCarthy conundrum, she consistently referred to what “she would do”. Fortunately, she has never been elected for office and if she were we would see a typical RINO.
I saw the exchange last night as well. Laura also mentioned her active involvement in sports and that she new quite a bit about sports safety.
That was conveniently left out of the article.
The guy definitely had an agenda.
It's the Rupert Murdoch business model.
Is there any other field of work where knuckleheads like Sean Hannity, Geraldo Rivera, and Shep Smith are even employable?
