Decoding Fox News

The folks at Fox desperately tried to spin Trump’s disastrous debate performance. Dana Perino and Brit Hume openly admitted that Trump had a bad night. Laura Ingraham, Jesse Watters and Sean Hannity refused to accept reality. It was a night of dashed expectations, delusions and broken dreams for Fox News.

Plastic straws! Fake accents! Non-existent bans on fracking! A local Fox News affiliate debunked its parent company! Nebraska Walzes for Trump haven’t even met Tim Walz! Fox News hosts pretended Kamala Harris has plummeted in the polls even when she hadn’t. Jesse Watters bragged about sounding like Russian propaganda. Vladimir Putin would be so Proud. Steve Doocy repeats a hateful myth about American Muslims and Pete Hegseth was shocked when an Israeli American said that Israelis want a return of every hostage, and end to the conflict and the end of Benjamin Netanyahu’s failed strategy. I threw...

A video breakdown of Trump’s last town hall on “Hannity,” on September 4, 2024. Juliet Jeske of Decoding Fox News breaks down Trump’s incoherent ramblings.

Fox News was desperate for some kind of scandal to help boost Trump’s presidential campaign. Fox tried to boost RFK Jr.’s endorsement of Trump, Mark Zuckerberg wrote a letter to Jim Jordan, Kamala Harris had an interview with her running mate, Joe Biden somehow controlled Trump’s DOJ, and finally Kamala Harris stranded astronauts in space. Absolutely nothing stuck but that wasn’t going to stop anyone at Fox from insisting all of these stories were life and death important.

A crazy old man named Donald J. Trump called into the last night of Fox News’ coverage of the DNC. When the first show hung up on him he called in to the next show - the worst comedy show on television. Jessica Tarlov broke down his meltdown. Jesse Watters made a racist statement about crime. Sean Hannity waited for a riot that never happened. Brit Hume referred to women who suffered sexual assault and serious pregnancy complications as “abortion speakers” Multiple Fox News hosts whined about how the Dems have treated Biden. Nancy Pelosi proved she’s a boss on...

Kat Abughazaleh, journalist and influencer - Mother Jones, Zeteo and formerly Media Matters chats with Juliet Jeske of Decoding Fox News. We talk about covering Fox News, Abughazaleh’s journey to become a media journalist, stand up comedy, misogyny, women in media, the Democratic Party’s relationship with Arab voters and the Democratic Party’s many challenges navigating the conflict in Gaza. Abughazaleh is currently an influencer with credentials at the DNC.

Kamala Harris is a copycat of Trump but also a communist. Will Cain tried to pretend Trump came up with the Child Tax Credit. Greg Gutfeld exaggerated Tim Walz’s DUI arrest from 1996. There was a Casserole Controversy! Trump advisor and Project 2025 author made up a bunch of nonsense about Black and Latino Americans. Tammy Bruce encouraged Joe Biden to turn into Dark Brandon at the DNC and Stuart Varney went rogue - Democrats are good for the stock market.

The folks at Fox News are still freaking out that Kamala Harris is starting to beat Trump in some polls. Last week was “Let’s Swift Boat Tim Walz” week as multiple Fox News hosts accused the Minnesota Governor of stolen valor even though he served in the National Guard for 24 years. Brian Kilmeade invented Chinese conspiracy theories. Jesse Watters tried to force his Black co-host to wear a “White Dudes for Harris” cap. Laura Ingraham attacked Tim Walz for being an assistant coach. Judge Jeanine Pirro made up crime stats and a Fox guest went rogue.

Fox News tried to create a smokescreen of deception to hide the rise of Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee for president. Fox was outraged by an anti-Christian opening ceremony that wasn’t about Christianity, and a trans athlete who wasn’t trans. Fox also claimed a crowd cheered Trump at a convention for Black journalists when in reality they laughed and jeered at him. Judge Jeanine Pirro claimed white dudes are only supporting Kamala Harris out of white guilty and Dana Perino claimed Democrats are trying to “superglue” Trump to Project 2025.

A fun frolic of Fox News meltdowns! What a glorious week to cover Fox. Fox started the week by playing the music the network normally uses for natural disasters under a news story that Biden was dropping out of the presidential race. Multiple Fox News hosts lost their ever-loving minds over Democrats reaction to Kamala Harris’ decision to run for president. Everyone on Fox seemed to forget the role of a vice president. Jessica Tarlov shared her excitement of millions of Democrats about Kamala Harris. Kellyanne Conway said that Trump never called Hillary Clinton names. Greg Gutfeld made a nu...

Jessica Tarlov breaks down Trump’s rambling mess of a speech from the RNC, Laura Ingraham praises Hulk Hogan the compares Donald J. Trump to Ronald Reagan. Rep. Cory Mills and Eric Trump claimed THEY tried to kill Donald J. Trump. Who is they? Greg Gutfeld is outraged that anyone would call Trump Hitler than he called Joe Biden Hitler. Fox News featured a woman who has appeared on the network for the past four years as an undecided voter. I RANT A LOT IN THIS ONE. PBS NewsHour does not hold back when they called Republicans out for th...

Fox started the week by bashing Biden in every way possible. Nearly every segment was dedicated to Biden’s mental acuity. Jesse Watters declared that Democrats should just give up now. Fox News continues to mislead its viewers about Project 2025. After Trump survived an attempted assassination attempt Fox News hosts claimed it was a miracle. Rachel Campos-Duffy claimed he had a magical force field around him. Rep. Cory Mills quote the Bible. A Trump supported Blamed Nancy Pelosi and AOC for the attack. Judge Jeanine Pirro seems to think West Germany is still a thing.

Fox News spent a lot of time trashing Biden even including segments during the July 4th celebrations. The network also is starting to pivot to trashing Vice President Kamala Harris. She’s the mastermind of a vast conspiracy to cover up Biden’s declining mental state. Hunter Biden has the nuclear codes. Bernie Sanders and The Squad are going to rip the country in half. The Democrats will stack the Supreme Court! Trump definitely won’t abuse his power and a preview of what life might look like under Project 2025.

Fox News was surprisingly subdued after Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance. The day after the debates they interviewed white folks in diners where they blamed the First Lady Jill Biden for everything. An RNC spokesperson claimed the DNC has been hiding Biden’s cognitive decline for years. Fox News hosts glossed over Trump’s many lies and Rachel Campos-Duffy went off the deep end in many ways. There was also signs among the MAGA faithful that they are worried Trump won’t win the 2024 election.

This is the second half of a comprehensive fact check of Trump’s statements during the presidential debate on CNN on 6/27/24

This is the audio version of a comprehensive fact check of 53 lies Donald J. Trump told during the first presidential debate. Because there were so many I had to break it into two parts. This is Part One. Part Two will drop shortly. The written version, complete with hyperlinks to all sources, can be found at the Substack channel for Decoding Fox News. It is free for anyone to read.

Fox New promoted a lot of stories about crimes allegedly committed by undocumented immigrants. While the network pretended to care about the safety of American women it ignored a Supreme Court ruling that supported a law that bars domestic abusers from owning guns. Jesse Watters attempted to mock Joe Biden for walking like an 81-year-old man. Newt Gingrich compared Trump to Reagan and predicted that Trump would be calm and controlled with sparring with Biden. A data expert didn’t seem to know that wages have outpaced inflation for 12 straight months and there was some drama about a Fox Ne...

Hunter Biden was found guilty of three felony gun charges and everyone on Fox News lost their ever loving minds over it. Judge Jeanine and several other hosts decided that First Lady Jill Biden was intimidating the jurors when she showed up at her stepson’s trial. Juan Williams pointed out the obvious that Americans are rarely charged for lying on gun forms. Jesse Watters and Charlie Hurt made things up about undocumented immigrants voting. Greg Gutfeld laid track for the next Big Lie where Trump will claim he won the 2024 election no matter what the outcome. Judge Jeanine al...

Fox tried to forget that Trump was just found guilty of 34 criminal felony charges. The network focused on his fundraising while openly shilling for his campaign. Fox also trotted out two old villains - Hunter Biden, the drug-addicted son of the president and Dr. Anthony Fauci, a man the right-wing has turned into a sadistic mad scientist. Judge Jeanine blamed Jill Biden for the actions of her husband. Donald J. Trump seems to think he’s God. Steve Doocy openly called Trump a convicted felon and Laura Ingraham rehashed old conspiracy theories about COVID-19.

Fox & Friends featured an interview with Trump that was supposed to be 90 minutes long yet they just recycled and cut up the same 15 minutes over four hours. Trump made a slightly racist remark to Rachel Campos-Duffy. Will Cain fawned all over him. Gov. Doug Burgum called for people to rise up against the Trump verdict. Jesse Watters predicted a revolution while Greg Gutfeld implied they’ll be riots if Trump doesn’t win in 2024. I also do a bit about Judge Jeanine Pirro at the end.

A breakdown of Fox News from "The Five," to "Hannity" on the night Trump was found guilty. Judge Jeanine repeatedly calls Stormy Daniels a hooker. Jonathan Turley is disturbed that so many folks celebrated the verdict. Trey Gowdy invents “battered lawyer syndrome,” and Greg Gutfeld makes a joke about meth that lands like a lead balloon. Mark Levin screams a lot.Laura Ingraham goes into full histrionics. Jesse Watter says a number of stupid things and we get to meet Trump’s lawyer - Todd Blanche.

It was a week full of conspiracy theories, lies mixed with general panic about the criminal trial Trump faces in Manhattan. Secret Chinese armies, evil Marxist feminists, along with lies about Black and Latino unemployment. Jesse Watters and Judge Jeanine both hyped up the false claim that the FBI approved the use of deadly force. Judge Jeanine trans Gov. Krisit Noem again - never mess with a dog lady.

This episode is a journey that starts with one media savvy YouTube personality that Fox News tries to pawn off as a random man from The Bronx. I picked up on some clues that many of the “every day New Yorkers,” featured in segments about Trump’s rally in The Bronx were really politicians and activists. I created a Twitter thread about it Fox News responded. The entire thing comes full circle. I also discovered a Black Trump supporter who is obsessed with the Proud Boys - things got weird.

Fox News completely forgot about pro-Palestinian protesters and the Israel-Hamas War choosing instead to focus on Trump’s criminal hush money trial in Manhattan. The network featured Trump’s toadies - a legion of lawmakers desperate to suck up to their dear leader. Jesse Watters claimed Trump was meditating in court - not nodding off. Judge Jeanine Pirro clutched her pearls over Biden’s joke “I hear you’re free on Wednesdays.” Laura Ingraham defended a NFL kicker’s commencement speech and Rachel Campos-Duffy pitted Black Americans against Latino Americans. Eric Shawn continued to drop truth bombs and Steve Doocy went rog...

Matt Taibbi claims the New York Times has a left wing bias while appearing on Fox News, a right-wing propaganda network. Eric Shawn continues to go rogue regarding the Trump hush money trial. A Columbia Univ. student criticizes Fox News' college protest coverage without realizing it. The cast of Fox and Friends seemed to think George Washington hated protesters even though he was a revolutionary himself. Kellyanne Conway claimed fetuses wave to their parents during ultrasounds. Sean Hannity claimed the Boy Scouts have gone woke!

Fox News dedicated over 2/3 of its airtime to covering the college protests last week. The network often ran commercial free hours of live feeds from UCLA or Columbia University. Fox portrayed the protesters as violent antisemites who were determined to destroy the country. Some of them even had nose rings. The network cited matching tents as proof of a nefarious foreign actors fueling the demonstrations. More than one Fox hosts or guest compared the protests to January 6th. Eric Shawn went rogue and called Trump a liar twice during a short segment about his hush money trial. Judge Jeanine...

John V. Petrocelli, an experimental social psychologist and Professor of Psychology at Wake Forest University and author of The Life-Changing Science of Detecting B******t breaks down propaganda on Fox News with Decoding Fox News founder, Juliet Jeske, MA in Journalism, Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY. We breakdown clips along the lines of the psychology of how Fox manipulates its audience. It’s nerdy but also funny as we openly laugh at the absurdity that is Fox News.

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 crminal trial would be a laugh riot. As usual it was a whole lotta stupid.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson said he wouldn't endorse Biden in 2024. He also didn't endorse or praise Trump. Fox News tried to make a lot out of random celebrities complaining about things. Kid Rock praised Trump while failing to disclose that Budweiser is sponsoring his latest music tour. The Five blamed an earthquake on Democrats. There was a lot of bigotry against transgender people. Matt Whitaker misrepresented Bill Clinton's sock drawer scandal along with the Presidential Records Act.

Fox desperately tried to blame Biden or Pete Buttigieg for the bridge collapse in Baltimore. As soon as they couldn't find a political angle for the story they dropped it. Greg Gutfeld got jealous of Stephen Colbert. Judge Jeanine couldn't tell the difference between a civil and criminal bond. Stephen Miller predicted waves of migrants entering the U.S. just to steal people's homes. Lara Trump has no idea how to run the RNC. Fox claimed NBC was ruined because the network fired Ronna McDaniel as a paid contributor.

Fox News hosts were outraged that members of the media reacted to Trump saying there will be a bloodbath if he doesn't win reelection.Jesse Watters thinks Mexicans love Trump's taco bowls. Judge Jeanine said migrants will steal your home. Steve Doocy went rogue twice! The House held the another nothing-burger hearing about Hunter Biden.

Laura Ingraham cranks up fear and paranoia to epic levels. The cast of The Five freaks out that Joe Biden corrected his use of the term illegal. Clinton's sock drawer was classified. Tulsi Gabbard dons a tin foil hat. Harold Ford Jr. gets a major detail about the Haitian crisis wrong. I tell a goofy story about Haiti, Voodoo, a bigot and a cruise ship.

Sean Hannity invents the term "Jacked up Joe" Fox includes a clip of an unhinged woman in a diner then completely lies about what she said. Lawrence Jones is awful. Kellyanne Conway clutches her pearls. Jesse Watters thinks Helium is combustible. It's a another wacky week on Fox News. I do a quick impression of Judge Jeanie and Katie Britt.

Fox News dedicated nine hours of coverage for Super Tuesday. I captured it all and break it down. The guests got a bit wild in the last three hours as Fox News booked strongly opinionated folks from the center left to left who repeatedly trashed Trump and bolstered Biden. There were no strong voices from the right to defend Trump so things got weird. This one was fun.

Fox News turned to its legit news team to break down the SOTU. They made amazing observations such as - Biden walks too slow. If he was perfect then he was terrible. I also compare Fox to PBS in this one and do a detailed breakdown of the crazy way Senator Katie Britt delivered the Republican response.

Meet the Trump cult in their natural habitat of the Southern diner. Trump spews a bunch of nonsense in a highly edited town hall. Ainsley Earhardt goes on about 'normal Americans" Fox News exploits the murder of a nursing student to smear migrants. I make fun of Kari Lake at the end of this one and do a quick impression of my mom.

This episode focuses on how Fox News covered the South Carolina primary. There was a great deal of concern by many folks on Fox about Trump's chances in the general election. Is Nikki Haley going rogue? Will Trump be able to get her supporters once she drops out? I do a goofy impression of Judge Jeanine at the end of the episode.

This episode is an overview of every show on Friday night starting from The Five to Hannity. The Fox News hosts breakdown and freakout. Eric Trump claimed his father built the New York City skyline. Alina Habba is outraged about a Starbucks cup.

I do a couple of goofy impressions at the end of the episode. Fox News freaked out over the special counsel report on Joe Biden's handling of classified documents. They predicted he would resign immediately. They also acted as if he was an unhinged violent lunatic who would physically assault the press. the pearl clutching was next level. I also explore how the network handled the bipartisan spending bill.

Multiple Fox News hosts dance with defamation. The cast of The Five makes U.S. military strikes in Iran all about Donald J. Trump. The border crisis is pumped up to epic proportions. Laura Ingraham blames Biden for the military recruitment problem that's existed since 2014. There's a whole lotta nonsense from Fox.

I went back through two years worth of clips and segments about Nikki Haley on Fox News to see exactly WHEN the network decided she shouldn't be the Republican nominee. Fox News personalities turned on Nikki Haley almost immediately after she announced her campaign. It only got worse as Haley rose in the polls. I provide receipts!

Brit Hume is the surprising star of this episode as he was critical of Trump and the Republican Party during the New Hampshire primary coverage. The cast of The Five tore into Nikki Haley before voting was finished in the Granite State. Kellyanne Conway clutched her pearls and a diner guest went rogue.

Fox News hosts freaked out over various scandals that weren't scandals. The network has now gone all in for Trump and basically become part of his campaign. Everyone love paper ballots. Low education voters LOVE Trump. Judge Jeanine criticized Madonna for having too much plastic surgery - no really. The next 11 months will be a bumpy ride. I make fun of Fox News a lot in this one.

Fox News tried desperately to make the Iowa caucus exciting even though the AP called it 1.5 hours before the Fox News election night special started. The network trotted out any number of guests who threw DeSantis and Haley under the bus. Ramaswamy was forgotten almost immediately. I included some clips from the PBS NewsHour for contrast. We are in for a wild ride for election season. Decoding Fox News is ready for it.

It was a wild week on Fox. Laura Ingraham implied DEI policies will kill you. Jesse Watters said he thought Taylor Swift might be a PSYOP working for the Pentagon. Hunter Biden crashed a Congressional hearing. Fox hosted three town hall for presidential candidates. Jesse Watters told everyone what we already know. I did a couple of goofy impressions of Ramaswamy and Judge Jeanine.

This is a video not a podcast - It's all the sniffs from Donald J. Trump's last town hall on Fox News

This is a video not a podcast.

Fox News threw the most depressing New Year's Eve celebration ever! Fox hosts got really worked up about Biden's vacation sunburn. Steve Doocy even claimed it was suicidal. Alan Dershowitz evoked Israeli sexual violence victims to justify his past with Epstein. Greg Gutfeld was racist. Alina Habba implied SCOTUS is in the bag for Trump. I do a cartoonish Irish accent and my classic Judge Jeanine. Fox loved Barbie after they called it an evil feminist plot to destroy families. It was classic Fox News.

It's an overview of 2023 - the best, the worst and weirdest moments from Fox News in 2023. The top ten tragedies to befall the media empire that Rupert Murdoch created. Chinese spy balloons, defamation lawsuits, nothing burgers and emails leaked to the public. Fox didn't have the best year. I reveal the top 15 topics, the top 25 guests and top 25 elected officials to appear in 2023 in addition to the top bogus expert!

Fox ignore the Israel-Hamas war last week and barely mentioned the war in Ukraine. Fox News hosts kept insisting they had damning evidence against Joe Biden when they really have nothing. James Comer is terrified of Steve Doocy. Kellyanne Conway fought with Jessica Tarlov. A tap dance routine at the White House freaked everyone out. I do a brief impression of Melania Trump who is best know for her f*ck Christmas rant. This episode includes a bonus clip at the end which is why it's a bit longer than most.

Sean Hannity offered up a heavily edited praise festival of Donald J. Trump with a live audience that was supposed to be a town hall but wasn't. Fox News openly mocked News Nation but remained obsessed with the 4th GOP Debate. Ingraham trashed Haley. Doocy trashed Ramaswamy. Chris Christie bashed Trump and everyone forgot about Ron DeSantis. Ingraham mocked fears of Trump's dreams of a dictatorship while I mocked Sean Spicer.

For this episode I have a lot of fun with the DeSantis/Newsom debate on Hannity. DeSantis got a shellacking. Sean Hannity's questions were mini-speeches. Henry Kissinger was the likable war crimina/womanizerl who loved soap on a rope. Judge Jeanine doesn't seem to know what an ICBM is but she's sure Iran hit Iraq with one. Jessica Tarlov rips on Bibi Netanyahu. It's regular laugh riot.

On Wednesday Nov. 22 Fox News called a car accident a terrorist attack for about 3.5 hours. They even implied it was carried out by a radical Islamic group as part of a jihad in response to the Israel-Hamas war. None of this was accurate. I went through six hours of Fox News programming to break down the entire fiasco.

It was Thanksgiving week. Judge Jeanine Pirro made a horrible comment about Native Americans, Jesse Watters promoted a conspiracy theory about George Floyd, The cast of Fox & Friends was outraged that the Biden campaign would produce a Thanksgiving Guide for MAGA Craziness. Biden blew out 81 candles on a birthday cake and Michael Shellenberger trashed Media Matters. I do a couple quick impressions of Kari Lake and Judge Jeanine. There's also a Clutch Your Pearls and Bogus Expert!

Fox News freaks out about the Asian summit in San Francisco. Laura Ingraham calls a protest at the DNC an insurrection, Judge Jeanine is outraged at the Secret Service, Mike Davis warns of massive riots, TikTok terrorist Stans, I do a couple brief impressions of Judge Jeanine and Kari Lake with a clutch your pearls moment.

Sean Hannity and all of his guests had complete meltdowns when it became obvious that the off-year election didn't go the way they thought it would. Stephen Miller yelled about abortion. Kayleigh McEnany listed several suggestions to reduce abortions. Sean Hannity said abortion was being weaponized by Democrats. I also included clips from the day after the election from Fox & Friends and The Five. Warning - The topic of abortion is mentioned frequently throughout this episode.

This episode starts a bit dark as some segments are about the Israel Hamas war. Jesse Watters says some horrible things about Arab Americans and the Middle East. Fox News misleads its audience about the White House and antisemitism. Later in the podcast I openly make fun of Jesse Watters and his theory on leaf blowers. I use some goofy voices.

The week went from nonstop coverage of the war in Israel Hamas to nonstop coverage of the mass shooter at large in Maine. Fox News host unwittingly promoted federal gun control laws, Jesse Watters pretended he knew how to survive in the wilderness. He also said forks don't make people fat. He also proudly announced that he bought a gun which anyone with a brain would realize is a bad idea. The Five joked around about Michael Cohen and a sketch artist who is in love with Trump. It's a crazy ride through a week of Fox News.

Hannity is overly hawkish for the war in Israel. Jesse Watters is insanely racist towards Palestinians. Judge Jeanine talks about Catholics. Greg Gutfeld has to bring up transgender people. There's also some meltdowns over Jim Jordan and the fact that the GOP can't pick a Speaker of the House. Brian Kilmeade openly makes fun of the Republican Party. They actually had a great expert on who explained Hamas. I used a lot of sources in this one so if you want to check them out please go to the newsletter for this episode at Substack for Decoding Fox News. <...

Fox News hosts found creative ways to weave in concern for the U.S. southern border, defund the police, cashless bail, transgender panic, sleeper terrorist cells, Black Lives Matter and all things woke. Jesse Watters talked about the war like an 8th grader might, Greg Gutfeld talked about a bunch of nonsense and an Israeli man chewed out Brian Kilmeade over Bibi Netanyahu. I also explore why most journalists avoid using hyperbolic language especially when it refers to marginalized groups.

The week was all over the place with stories of great importance - Kevin McCarthy being ousted as speaker and stories that were based in manufactured outrage - Hillary Clinton said something. Reality hit the network after Hamas invaded Israel and brutally murdered civilians. This podcast includes the horrific attack in Israel along with additional research which is why it's a bit longer than my usual episodes. I cover six days of Fox News instead of my usual five as this extended into Saturday.

This is a lighthearted romp through about six hours of Fox News media as both hosts and guests alike have complete meltdowns about the vote to remove Kevin McCarthy. I openly laugh at their pain. I start at "The Five" and cover every show through "Hannity" and picked up an additional hour of "Fox & Friends" from the next morning. There is no accompanying newsletter for this podcast.

An overview of the 2nd GOP debate on Fox. The spiciest moment involved an argument over curtains. Vivek Ramaswamy said a bunch of outrageous things. DeSantis finally seemed to almost grow a spine. Chris Christie tore into Trump several times and everyone yelled at Ramaswamy. The break out star was Ilia Calderón of Univision.

Jesse Watters doesn't know how time works. He also thinks Cyprus and Chinese diamonds are a big deal but can't back up a single accusation about Hunter Biden. Judge Jeanine wants to lock kids up. Brian Kilmeade doesn't think climate change is a thing. Fox News is populist but scared of unions. Elon Musk is a winner! Doocy compares Hunter Biden to Jared Kushner. There's a short clip of Judge Jeanine the Musical!

In this episode I present one of the strangest political manipulations about 9/11 ever recorded. Fox News hosts also didn't seem that impressed the the impeachment inquiry. Tulsi Gabbard was the liberal on The Five except her views are more extreme than nearly anyone on Fox. Brian Kilmeade goes rogue. AOC isn't married - call the police! I do brief impressions of Judge Jeanine Pirro and Tulsi Gabbard.

Last week Sean Hannity dedicated an entire pre-taped episode to bashing President Biden. The network also remembered Trump existed and decided recent polling proved he would trounce Biden. No one mentioned Trump's many legal problems though. Curtis Sliwa thinks he's the NYC mayor in exile, the actual mayor Eric Adams had a meltdown on camera that Fox exploited. I imitate Judge Jeanine while sharing a few stories about New York.

Last week Fox News wanted to talk about anything but Trump's many legal problems so the network fell back on its usual favorite subjects - Biden bashing, the border crisis and climate change isn't real. Jesse Watters seemed to lose his mind a few times. Greg Gutfeld might be in the hospital? Biden wants to take away your beer! I include a Judge Jeanine impression and some goofiness along with media clips from Fox.

Last week was a busy one on Fox News. The network hosted its first GOP presidential debate. Trump got booked in Fulton County. His mug shot was plastered all over the network. Several hosts and guests on Fox pushed the idea that every Trump supporter could be the next victim of the Democratic machine. Hunter Biden traveled on Air Force Two but let's not talk about Jared or Ivanka. I do a couple of silly voices at the very end. There's also a Clutch Your Pearls moment.

This is a breakdown of every question and some of the craziest answers. The moderators lost control of this one early and the crowd became the biggest character in some ways. There were boos and cheers. Vivek Ramaswamy seemed to fight with everyone. Nikki Haley is the only person who made sense. When asked about UFO's Chris Christie brought up the teachers union. It was a lot of candidates answering questions with canned answers that had nothing to do with the questions asked. Trump loomed large over the entire event.

In this episode I review parts of the 12 hours of coverage I captured the night of and day after the 4th criminal indictment of Donald J. Trump. I go a bit more in depth into some clips than I did in the Bonus podcast. I also include how Fox News twisted the tragedy of the wildfires in Hawaii to make it into a weapon against Biden and to further discredit the real threats of climate change. The song "Rich Man North of Richmond" was surprisingly in the top five categories for the week and I do a few impressions...

It's always fun to watch folks meltdown on Fox News. The indictment was announced late Monday night so I analyzed Jesse Watters Primetime to Hannity then Fox & Friends, The Five, and the regular primetime lineup on Tuesday. I captured and edited a total of 12 hours for this one. Fox personalities had meltdowns. Mark Levin lost his mind. The main theme - If they can do this to Trump they can do this to anyone. A bunch of folks acted like they invented the term - Lawfare.

Fox chose to ignore the Alabama Boat Brawl while showing videos of Black teenagers involved in a chaotic publicity stunt in New York City and an organized robbery in Chicago. The network put a lot of focus on Hunter Biden and the appointment of David Weiss as special counsel. Steve Doocy continues to go rogue on Fox & Friends. I use a few goofy voices and one specifically for my fans in St. Louis, MO.

In this episode I go over how Fox News is spinning the criminal charges Trump faces in the January 6th investigation. There's a Clutch Your Pearls moment, Jesse Watters and Stephen Miller have a meltdown. A new conspiracy about Obama is included along with clips of Fox hosts begging Trump to be a part of the Fox News Republican presidential debate. I included a brief impression of Kari Lake by request.

This bonus episode is a breakdown of Fox News hosts freaking out about the third criminal indictment of Donald J. Trump. Jesse Watters has what seem like a series of breakdowns, Jessica Tarlov manages to get some good points out while being shouted over. Laura Ingraham is the most worked up I've seen her in ages. Stephen Miller appeared to be near his breaking point. It's a fun little journey down the rabbit hole of Fox News on a bad day. This episode covers the network from The Five until The Ingraham Angle.

This episode deals with some darker themes of slavery and the Holocaust. It's not as lighthearted as most of my episodes. I do include a bit about cocaine sharks though. Something went wrong with the original file so this is my second attempt at uploading this. Sorry for any double posts.

Fox News spent an inordinate amount of time on a Country music story. The network was still obsessed with Hunter Biden and a small bag of cocaine that was found in the White House. While the rest of the world burned Fox didn't even really mention the climate crisis. I briefly sing in this...no joke...and I do my usual goofy voices.

Biden battled with a beach chair! According to Fox News several big Democratic donors want to replace Biden as their party's nominee. Fox didn't offer any evidence for this but they insisted it was true. The cocaine story won't die. Climate change isn't happening and the King of England was horribly snubbed even though he wasn't. Chris Christie rips into Trump. Clutch Your Pearls is back! I imitate Judge Jeanine and make fun of Vivek Ramaswamy.

This episode is a bit of a sampler as Fox was a bit all over the place last week. Hunter Biden was the main story again. The various SCOTUS rulings were explored with Judge Jeanine Pirro pretty much voicing how most conservatives view affirmative action. I do a number of impressions in this one. I also introduce the first double bogus expert in the history of Fox News!

In this episode I explore how Fox News is fully committed to every possible scandal involving Hunter Biden. It is the never-ending story for Fox, the "But her emails 2.0." Some the network's hosts actually contradict their own propaganda. Rachel Campos-Duffy thought there was too much evidence against him. I also mock Jesse Watters for not realizing that Florida has a homeless problem. I do few brief impressions in this one a couple show up right at the end.

This episode is dedicated to how Fox News avoided covering the Wager Group rebellion in Russia. Fox News was determined to report on Hunter Biden even when Russia might have been on the brink of a civil war, a coup or at least a violent clash between two armies. I make fun of Donald Trump Jr. and his illustrious fiancee. Rachel Campos-Duffy brings the crazy as she claims that NATO paid the Wagner group while K.T. McFarland implies it could have been a red flag while also agreeing with Campos-Duffy?!?!

Curt Schilling incites violence, Kirk Cameron tells children about pregnant mothers who give birth to all the evils of the world. Francey Hakes victim blames a woman who accused Conor McGregor of rape, Steve Doocy goes rogue, the non-existent terrorist Organization Trantifa is born! Your host, Juliet Jeske, does impressions of a few folks including MTG.

In this episode I analyze six hours of Fox News coverage from the night of Donald J. Trump's arraignment in Florida regarding the mishandling of classified documents. I start with "The Five" and go all the way through to "The Ingraham Angle." I also have brief impressions of Brian Kilmeade and Judge Jeanine Pirro.

In this bonus episode I go through the Fox News reaction on the primetime shows from Thursday. Instead of talking about the criminal charges against Trump both hosts and guests alike decided to talk about Hillary Clinton's email scandal and Hunter Biden. I do impressions of a few Fox personalities in this including Judge Jeanine. There's a screaming cage death match! Mark Levin yells a lot. Jesse Watters claims Hillary smashed classified records with hammers.

In this episode I use a lot of clips from the PBS NewsHour to show how much Fox News distorts stories and manipulates its audience. Fox promoted the latest satanic panic in a false story about Target's Pride merchandise. The network also promoted an alternate reality about what's happening at the southern border.

The Durham Report was released and Fox News just invented reality - the Russia investigation caused the Ukraine War, the FBI helped Hillary win even though she lost, Trump was cleared of all wrongdoing. I do a brief Kari Lake impression while being terribly sleep deprived.

Fox News focused on two stories last week the end of Title 42 and the nothing burger of Rep. James Comer releasing information that wasn't new and didn't show any evidence of criminality. Newt Gingrich lies about abortion. I make fun of Jesse Watters and Judge Jeanine in this one.

I this episode I explore how Fox News exploited the tragic death of an un-homed man on the New York City subway. Fox News regularly demonizes un-homed people while hyping up crime. They promote a portray New York City as a lawless hellscape while it's actually one of the safest cities in the country. I also imitate Judge Jeanine Pirro and feature a Fox guest who goes rogue!

In this episode the firings begin. Dan Bongino is out. Tucker Carlson is out and panic has ensued. Anchors talked about Hunter Biden, crime, the border crisis while trying to make a lot of of an incredibly boring interview with Elon Musk. I do a Judge Jeanine impression and there's a bogus expert!

In this episode I go through a retrospective of sorts of the best and worst Tucker Carlson clips including the Jon Stewart takedown of Tucker Carlson on Crossfire as well as montages of Carlson talking about testosterone and spanking. It's a festival of mockery and disgust. The Wicked Witch is Dead at least for now.

In this episode I breakdown how a story about a Pentagon leak got became completely warped by Fox News as more information about the right-leaning leaker came out. According to Tucker Carlson we are already in WW3 whereas Hannity blames the Biden crime syndicate for the actions of a rogue 21-year-old who lives with his parents.

Last week Fox News created a false narrative by tying two non-related protests with the school shooting in Nashville, Tennessee. I breakdown the network's manipulation beat by beat over the span of two weeks. It's a bit dark at times but there's a ray of hope at the end. I also threw in a goofy voice...and a silly story about my life in New York City.

This episode explores seven hours of Fox News on the day of Donald J. Trump's arraignment in New York City. From "Fox & Friends" until "The Ingraham Angle" Fox guests and hosts become unhinged. Hillary Clinton gets mentioned a lot. Juan Williams makes an appearance as does Tulsi Gabbard. Steve Doocy openly spars with his co-hosts.

Fox News was determined to demonize the entire trans community based on the actions of a mass shooter in Nashville, Tennessee. The network dramatically shifted focus on Thursday when the New York City D.A. Alvin Bragg announced that former President Donald J. Trump would be indicted. In this episode I breakdown how Fox News manipulated the shooting to smear a marginalized group of people and how reckless and insensitive they were with their coverage. I threw in a funny clip featuring Sen. Lindsey Graham at the end for balance.

On Thursday night, after the announcement of the criminal indictment of Donald J. Trump, I captured every show from "The Five" to "The Ingraham Angle." On this episode I break it all down - Sen. Lindsey Graham cried and begged for donations for Trump, Jesse Watters had a meltdown, Tucker Carlson told people to hold on to their AR-15's. Glenn Beck basically predicted the end of the world. It was one big ball of hysteria.

Last week Fox desperately tried to promote both DeSantis and Trump at the same time. Doocy loved DeSantis, Jesse Watters had a meltdown over Trump, Laura Ingraham started out favoring DeSantis but by Friday had fallen in love with Trump again. A whirlwind week of dueling wannabe fascists.

Fox freaked out about a woke bank that wasn't woke while Hannity nearly declared WW3 over the unmanned drone crash in the Black Sea. Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade openly sparred over Kilmeade's embellishment of facts in two segments. I briefly imitate Doocy, Judge Jeanine and everyone's favorite - Kari Lake.

Last week Tucker Carlson acted as if he was about to blow the lid off the January 6th Committee findings but he really just presented a few clips of people wandering around the Capitol. It was a nothing burger of less than 11 minutes of coverage. Fox News hosts also discussed the possibility of sending cruise missiles to Mexico to fight the drug cartels and Brian Kilmeade complained about the less than exciting Congressional investigations.

This past week Fox News hosts took the Department of Energy's report about the lab leak to push every single conspiracy theory about COVID-19 as fact. Jessica Tarlov managed to get some excellent points about East Palestine and Jesse Watters expressed his disillusionment over the lackluster Congressional investigations.

This week I explore how Fox News tried to equate the train derailment to the war in Ukraine, how Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham took a Biden speech wildly out of context and how the network seems to be making a pivot to a certain bombastic governor.

This episode has two longer stories that took a bit more time that a typical podcast.

If you follow me on Twitter I explain how My cat Thor killed my toilet. I also make fun of Jesse Watters.

This episode is slighter longer this week as the clips were all longer than usual. It's entertaining. I have a mini-Kari Lake bit in the middle of it. I hope you love it. Thanks!

This is something silly and fun I threw together for my Patreon supporters. I used to make political satire. Thank you so much for supporting this project. Fox hasn't produced any decent material this week but I'll be back with a newsletter/podcast 1/2/23

This is the audio version of the interview. I cleaned it up a bit for the written version but it's basically the same. Andy is very entertaining. We laugh quite a bit in this since we know each other well and know a lot about The Proud Boys.

This episode contains seven media clips which is why its a bit longer.
