Fox Attacks...Decency: Network Preaches 'Moral Values' In Between Clips Of Soft Porn

Fox News' Bill O'Reilly has always been reliably quick to decry what he sees as a toxic American culture. Just this past Monday, O'Reilly took to the airwaves to attack the makers, and sellers, of rap music, saying, "Some very large American corporations are responsible for that corrosive entertainment." Naturally, what was lost on O'Reilly was that some of the people he was defaming were his very own paymasters.

And that's too bad, because if he spent a little time policing his own house, he'd discover that the Fox News Channel has a long history of peddling smut. The old playground taunt turns out to be a truism: He who smelt it, apparently dealt it.

And it's precisely that sort of double-dealing that rankles Robert Greenwald, the creative force behind Brave New Films. "Bill O'Reilly and others at Fox News cannot have it both ways," he says. "Either they're the morality police of our culture, or they're the smut-peddlers. They can't be both." Launched today, the latest production from Brave New Films, "Fox Attacks: Decency," drives Greenwald's point home. The short film captures Fox's hair-trigger tendency to air "after hours" style sexual content, "frequently in stories condemning precisely such images in the media as morally corrosive." Watch it:

This video dovetails with a new campaign undertaken by Brave New Films to urge cable subscribers to demand "a la carte" cable from the FCC.

Under an "a la carte" system, cable users could pick and choose the channels they wanted to pay for -- meaning they wouldn't be forced to waste their cash on soft porn from Fox News. (It's worth noting that current V-chip" technology is incapable of filtering out Fox's content because the news channel is not required to carry a viewer rating.)

The Fox Faux News Network has sleazy billboards in northern

Illinios which if posted in conservative states would

take Fox off of the air.

Time to show the REAL FOX NETWORK TO THEIR SUPPORTERS.

Hyfoxrisy!

It's great at the end when Bill is trying to round out the story with details to jack off to later.

Yea. What the hell do all those shots of the students doing sexy dancing have to do with a killer stalking them?

[misterbone]

FoxNews simply offers guilt-free porn for all the sexually retarded morons out there in our cultural wasteland. While secretly enjoying the titillation, they can still pretend to be enraged with moral indignation.

[MajorKong]

Morals schmorals. It's all about the money with these people.

[wildbill999]

The only thing I watch on FOX is 24 and it is fake took..... Their news is fake too.

[NotMyPrez]

Fox puts the Hype in hypocrisy.

It's that "oh we're just showing you how bad, tsk tsk tsk" attitude.

In Mexico, Fox is the network that has porn on after midnight

[PdotBdotB]

Laurie Dhue's looking pretty hot, though. Too bad she went to the dark side...

I want to see BillO playing with a Fox babe and his Loofa.
Why is Bill always watching the gratuitous sex and not performing in the scenes.

Murdoch is pure poison-he has seriously damaged society in the UK and now he is doing the same in the US-his basic premise is that most people are morons and are there to be exploited for his benifit. Doctor Goebbels would have loved Fox News.

Fox is just a cable news version of Murdoch's tabloid rags, rags that in England frequently feature a naked woman on page 3 just in case anyone was ever confused about the integrity (or lack there of) of the articles in these papers. The fake moral outrage is part and parcel of the pandering to horndog hard-up conservatives. It's a well known fact that when the RNC or a major golf tournament (which tends to cater to the more conservative types) comes to a town, that it becomes a bonanza for strippers and call girls. Fox News is not unlike the beleagured scandal-ridden Republican party, do what we say, not what we do.

News Corp offers indeed a wide variety in its
global business, including plenty of hard core
porn on BskyB, the TV network channels in the
UK and Ireland, plus some other on the European
continent.
The British tabloid Sun, www.thesun.co.uk
gets lots of online visitors from the US.
Have a look at the babes there. - It wouldn't
be those suspected of hypocrisy in the US?

BTW: the sexual moral as it is preached like
that, having its roots in gnosticism and not
the four gospels and the "Lord" Jesus, a concept that regarded the body as utterly bad,
condemnable, as "the flesh" because created by
demons, the prison of the soul our which it
had to rescued and saved. Hence the required mortification in certain Catholic sects, for
instance.
This concept, religious perception explains
why so many servants of the "Lord", in contrast
to their master cannot (and would not) heal
people, resucitate the dead, ... nor walk on
water (as the Lord did in his wisdom to raise
the stakes for servants in his name), nor
would they forgive like their proclaimed master
and lord. Who by coincidence provided us with
a pretty good description of hypocrisy (can also be read as secular literature), nor did
he encourage or promise any heavenly rewards
for the practice to that.
