Wonder Why The American Right Is So Dumb? Read Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult Of Ignorance

In recent weeks there have been some depressing examples of idiotic lunacy emanating from the ranks of conservative media and punditry. They include blaming gay marriage for the fall of Western civilization, accusing Hillary Clinton of being rich (which is now a bad thing), and taking anything Ted Cruz says seriously. Right-wingers still deny that Climate Change is real, despite the affirmation of 97% of scientists, but they believe that the federal government is plotting a hostile takeover of Texas and the EPA is planning to outlaw all ammunition. This does not bode well for the future of conservative politics. But there must be an explanation.

Two years ago News Corpse published a collection of articles that documented the deception, propaganda, and outright lies disseminated by the Fox News community website, Fox Nation. It was dubbed “Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Community’s Assault On Truth.” Every chapter was fully verified by reputable sources and exposed the website for its shameful dishonesty and lack of ethics. It is that sort of concerted effort by wealthy and powerful media fabulists that cripple the intelligence of the willfully dimwitted.

Now a second volume is also available with more documented examples of Fox’s devotion to disinformation. It is titled “Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.” If you purchased Volume I, you will want to add this to your library. It is a great resource for proving to your Fox-deluded friends and family what a den of deceit it is. And if you didn’t buy Volume I you can get Volume II and leap right into the fantastical world of Fox, then go back and read the first volume for additional chuckling and wincing.

Available now at Amazon.

Here is an excerpt from the introduction:

Two years ago the first volume of Fox Nation vs. Reality was published revealing an Internet operation that was dedicated to fiercely partisan, right-wing distortions of the truth. Its mission was, and remains, to construct a safe haven for the broader Fox News community to reinforce their preferred fantasies and unfounded preconceptions. The articles aggregated there were from the fringiest sources (i.e. Daily Caller, Alex Jones’ Infowars, Breitbart News, etc.) and often contained nothing but easily disproven falsehoods and rank defamation of liberals.

Since then Fox Nation has evolved into an even more sheltered environment that has taken on many characteristics of culthood. It is a pattern they adopted from their parent, Fox News, where the slogan “fair and balanced” was an implicit condemnation of all other news sources as being neither. Recognizing that the prime directive of a cult is to convince your followers that your version of reality is the only true version and that all others are agents of deception, Fox segregated their disciples to prevent them from being contaminated by impure thoughts, otherwise known as facts.

Some of the enlightening, infuriating, and entertaining chapters include:

  • Obama’s Imaginary Foreign Fundraising
  • Paranoid Gun Nuts Go Wild
  • Night Of The Living Tea Party
  • The Poor Have It Way Too Good
  • Was Benghazi A Koch Brothers Plot?
  • Zombie Reagan’s Fake Declaration Of War

Check out the reviews on Amazon for Volume I to get an idea of what previous readers have had to say. On a platform that is notorious for focused criticism it has maintained a 4-star average rating. And that 4-star average has also been maintained for the Amazon reviews for Volume II.

Purchasing either or both volumes of Fox Nation vs. Reality is a great way to support this website and the work done here to reveal the malignancy of conservative media. Plus, it makes a wonderful Mother’s/Father’s Day gift. And as always, your continued support and patronage is very much appreciated.

  1. So with all that presented – why does the left still not dominate the political world? If the right is so dumb as you suggest, why isn’t everyone a leftist like you? Why do people buy into Republican propaganda? Or maybe it’s still better for people to not want what you want? maybe? Just maybe? Maybe the people of this country just don’t want what you’re selling (or what he GOP is selling either)? How do you see your own propaganda actually convincing people that what you want is best? Maybe having Fox News go away would be good in the sense they are just pushing the corporatist GOP? Why do you not “win” the battle of ideas? Do you ever think maybe your ideas just aren’t what people want? Dumb or not – the american right has something people want – unfortunately for America, the representatives of the “right” is now a moronic party – so some of what you say is no doubt correct – lucky you I would say.

    • The right LIKES hating everything good about the USA.
      The right’s propaganda victims LIKE being on team stupid.

      Anti-USA Fantasy > Reality in conservative world.

      • Did I open your eyes? You see how unpopular your beliefs are? Mark did everyone a favor by pointing it out – is his own way.

    • battle of ideas, lol. its a battle of facts vs fiction.

      what “ideas” do you think the right has, aside from creating more debt to give handouts to the richest?
      what “ideas” other than straight up lies, are presented by fox fake news?

      • I wouldn’t call it anything other than repudiation of leftism – the GOP doesn’t stand for anything, just imagine if it did. I’m only pointing out exactly what is clear – you are just in denial. I enjoy pointing it out to you. Your point of view is less palatable than the messed up GOP (the “dumb right”) – how does that feel? Painful I hope. They are the only opposition available right now and they won last election – across the board.

  2. Let me summarize my initial paragraph for you:

    By reminding your readers and yourself for that matter about how “dumb” the right is – you point out how unpopular your own beliefs are. If the right is soooo dumb – just imagine if it was smarter – there would be NO leftism in government and life would be so much nicer and safer for freedom. Today’s GOP can’t/won’t deliver that anyway since they are not conservative and yet they are the majority in both chambers of congress – so what does that say for you? Maybe Kali or someone else can defend that….
