☆ Anti-Ukraine rhetoric has saturated right-wing media. Now it is helping to deliver actual war victories to Putin
  + stars: | 2024-02-21 | by ( Oliver Darcy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
New York CNN —Vladimir Putin’s information war in U.S. media paid off this weekend with a key victory halfway around the world. A CNN poll conducted last summer found that a staggering 71% of Republicans do not support additional aid to thwart Putin’s war on Ukraine. Kostiantyn Liberov/Libkos/Getty ImagesMuch of the GOP’s softening toward Russia is owed to a near-total reversal in rhetoric from right-wing media personalities and outlets, prompted in large part by Donald Trump’s ascension to power in GOP politics. While the biggest players in right-wing media once fervently championed the foreign policy doctrines of the neo-conservatives, they now follow in the footsteps of Trump and vehemently reject the views once held by the George W. Bush administration. The rhetoric has had a considerable impact on the views of the party, which is now being reflected by its elected leaders.

☆ Guilty pleas from ex-Trump attorneys deal blow to right-wing media outlets that amplified election lies
  + stars: | 2023-10-25 | by ( Oliver Darcy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
CNN —It’s raining “guilty” pleas in Trump-world. The rapid succession of guilty pleas not only marks a big blow to Trump, but also to the right-wing media apparatus that championed and disseminated his election lies to the masses. In the aftermath of the 2020 election, both Ellis and Powell toured across MAGA Media, becoming heroes to Trump’s fans as they sowed doubt about the legitimacy of the election. Fox News, which repeatedly hosted Ellis in the wake of the 2020 election, suddenly became disinterested in the former Trump lawyer. The result is that a good portion of the channel’s audience, made up of legions of viewers who willfully seclude themselves in right-wing media safe spaces, will likely miss the consequential news.

☆ If Fox News was so worried about Tucker Carlson's racist text, they shouldn't have given him a platform for his 'toxic bigotry', say critics
  + stars: | 2023-05-04 | by ( Tom Porter | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Fox News sources told the NYT that a text message led to host Tucker Carlson's firing. But critics say the host embraced white nationalist views on his show for several years. In the text, Carlson made inflammatory remarks about violence and race. Critics of Fox News, however, say the remarks should not have come as a surprise to the network. And another likely factor in Carlson's exit was appeasing Fox shareholders in the wake of the $787.5 million settlement Fox News reached with Dominion.
☆ How baseless conspiracy theories about the attack on Nancy Pelosi's husband spread into the GOP mainstream
  + stars: | 2022-11-01 | by ( Tom Porter | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
Conspiracy theories spread fast after Nancy Pelosi's husband was attacked in their home. He also asserted that the motive for the attack was unclear, although the attacker published a blog expressing support for far-right conspiracy theories and told police he wanted to break Nancy Pelosi's knees. Carlson's monologue alluded to conspiracy theories about the attack that spread across social media over the weekend, the goal of which seems to be to absolve Republicans of blame for possibly inspiring the attacker. DePape he said, is "a man who committed political violence because he was consumed by these right-wing conspiracy theories about how depraved the left is, and they're turning it into a new conspiracy theory about how depraved the left is." They also claimed police statements suggested that a third individual had let police into the property to stop the attack.
