Is Fox News gay bashing?

Hannity wannabe Tucker Carlson gets to sit in dad's chair. Using a clip by a reporter from Brent Bozell's right-wing fake news agency, CNSNews, he smears Obama appointee, Harry Knox. Harry Knox is a gay critic of some anti-gay Catholic policies. Brent Bozell shows up - without the audience being told his propaganda is the source of the segment's spin - to provide out of context quotes to smear Knox as a bigot. I provide the context to prove Bozell et al to be liars.

This segment is sickening. Who has tortured, burned, and murdered more people -- the gay rights movement or the Catholic Church? I spit in Tucker Carlson's face. A total right wing prostitute.

This is astonishsing. Was this actually broadcast in the United States? I cannot believe such a gross distortion of the truth was broadcast in what can only be explained as an attempt to mislead or manipulate your (I'm sure otherwise noble) citizenry. The News presenter, and both the guests commenting are all singing from exactly the same song sheet. I've never seen anything like this on a news broadcast, makes me really appreciate the BBC (with all its faults) for one thing!

A comparison of the gay rights movement to the KKK. Very classy.

Pope is evil smart cover talk to people BS!

[SethKlan]

Then again, this is FAUX news. This is only Faux news. If this were an actual news cast, there would have been a balanced approach to the segment. This is only Faux news.

I don't know what Joe Ratzinger's forte is...I am guessing he is not a Moral Theologian. Before he was elected Pope, he was head of the Department that used to be known as the Inquisition. My guess is that his MA is in Ecclesiology. Most likely NOT Moral or Scriptural Theology. The INTENTION of the act is important to its evaluation as it moves from a pre moral to a post moral description.

[SethKlan]

So condemning the use of condoms as a deterrent to the speed of AIDS is redundant. The Church's stance against homosexuality is sufficient without adding the condemnation against men using condoms on each other. There is an ontological moral good in the desire to prevent or limit the amount of harm from happening during an act that is already defined as an ontological moral evil.

[SethKlan]

The spokesman of this segment looks and sounds like a man who uses birth control in one way or another. Condoms, IUD's, Birth Control pills, and ANYTHING that "frustrates the plan of God" is equally condemned by the Pope and the Church. Men having sex with men is condemned by the Church (Joe Ratzinger is gay, but is a self loathing homosexual. Just ask Bishop Leveta. And lest not forget that Joe Ratzinger presided over one of those dioceses that transferred pedophiles from parish to parish.

[SethKlan]

I would wager Sean Hannity's pay that these talking heads have used condems, IN VIOLATION of the teachings of the Catholic Church. These hypocrites will use condoms and other birth control devices to prevent pregnancy. But when someone has the temerity to point out that condoms stop the spread of AIDS and ANYONE who opposes the use of condoms as a deterrent to the spread of AIDS is promoting the spread of AIDS, FAUX news condemns them.

I wish I could watch the news one day without religion being a part of it ;-(

[HottieBobby22]

This guy keeps saying "he said 'The Pope is killing people in the name of Jesus'" When they're showing the quote under him "The Pope is hurting people in the name of Jesus". NO one has said anything about killing, this dude is trying to bend he facts.

[spartyman4]

"Had a couple cocktails and said things he didn't really mean?" Are you fucking kidding me?!!!! What Knox said was rational. Naturally, this upsets the Fox crew. It was a completely accurate and uncontroversial statement. Which is worse, AIDS or condoms? Fucking morons.

[tangerinefarmer]

He is right, making people feel guilty about using condoms and birth control is perpetuating suffering.

Actual bigots love calling other people "bigots"

[ruffhouse00x]

How can you be an ANTI-CATHOLIC bigot? Especiall coming from the religion that supported the killings of Jews not only during Nazi reign Germany but also before the Crusades in the early 11th century the main conquest of Jerusalem was too punish the Jews for the death of Jesus Christ ans also was to turn the Middle East power over to the Catholic Church. Not to mention wasnt the Catholic Church the reason why the vast majoirty of the Mexico and South America are Catholics forced out of their wil

[krazygreen]

What Fox is clearly trying to do here is spread propaganda that Obama and all his appointees are God hating Muslim lovers who want to oppress the Christian and Catholic people. That's all this is, it's a microcasm to their bigger picture propaganda machine.

[UUUPPPCCC]

I realize the Catholic Church is no golden child of Christendom, but don't act like the rest of Christianity is any better. Have you even seen the film "Jesus Camp"? That movie was bat-shit crazy! Conservative politicians (of many different Christian denominations including Catholicism) have used their faith to legitimize bigotry, hate, and discriminatory politics for decades in this country. So don't try to use some minority group as a scapegoat for the actions of an entire religion!

[UUUPPPCCC]

Fox News Network is probably the most prejudiced group of individuals on the Western Hemisphere

[BringYerOwnBomb]

"The Pope is hurting people in the Name of Jesus"

This is going up on my quote wall.

[Cimmantti]

@DCFunBud Does the catholic church burn people today?

Cause back then, the gay community didn't exist in the same manner it does today...

so that's an invalid arguement.

[Jinxkatrina8]

Tucker Carlson and Thomas Peters are both closet cases. This video is another on my list of reasons why I want to move to Canada.

[IronicAtheist]

Is the guy with the bag on his head "mister anonymous"? lol internet meme joke :P

[Wills737]

He's not a bigot, if anyone's a bigot its the Catholic people. Are you kidding me?! They ruined this country more than anyone else
