The Associated Press is reporting that comedian Rosie O’Donnell suffered a heart attack and received a stent during a brief hospitalization. Doctors said that her coronary artery was 99% blocked. She is now reported to be home and resting comfortably. And here is how that news was received by the miscreants at the Fox News online community, Fox Nation:
The repulsive Fox audience thinks that Rosie O’Donnell’s near-death experience was “Funny.” These are the people who pretend incessantly that they are pro-life, family values, Christians. The comments accompanying the article were strewn with insults, laughter, and references to her having deserved her suffering because she is (pick one or more) 1) Liberal; 2) Gay; 3) Fat; 4) Female.
Just unbelievable. What a gross display of boorish insensitivity. And this isn’t some obscure right-wing fringe site – It’s Fox News. And it tells us so much about what that audience stands for.
It is amazing to me how hateful the right wing is. Yet that is what stands out so much in all the things they do. If this is Christianity I want nothing to do with it.
