Fox News Analyst Quits, Calls Network a ‘Propaganda Machine’

In a searing farewell note sent to colleagues on Tuesday, Ralph Peters, a Fox News strategic analyst and a retired lieutenant colonel in the United States Army, castigated the network for its coverage of President Trump and the rhetoric of its prime-time hosts.

“In my view, Fox has degenerated from providing a legitimate and much-needed outlet for conservative voices to a mere propaganda machine for a destructive and ethically ruinous administration,” Colonel Peters wrote in his message, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times.

Hey, Spider! Haven't heard from you in a while. Thanks for posting.!

Yeah, it says something about the credibility of FOX when its own reporters cry foul.

This guy voted for Hilary and constantly beat the war drums. So a War Hawk is against the Peace candidate Trump. Doesn't that just give Trump more credibility that the War Hawks and Deep State is against him?

He has always had a good opinion but never got along with orielley.

Pretty smart guy.

The guy is a total never Trumper,as was revealed in the other thread.Who also voted for Hilliary,so good riddance.

It is. Hannity talks about Uranium One, The Clinton Foundations, Bill Clinton, and of coarse Hillary. All As if none of that has ever been investigated, when in fact all of these things have been investigated. Some more than once. It angers me, that now the FBI, because of trump, is having to even defend its credibility and integrity. The people who work for the FBI, are people chosen, because of their integrity.

I find that to be ironic. Him questioning the FBI's credibility and integrity, when He has a porn star passing a polygraph, and it showing he had unprotected sex with her. After hearing himself, and Sarah H S telling us she was lying and its fake news. In fact Sarah H S, was PO'd when asked about it for a second time, like 'how dare anyone question the president or myself'. Yeah, I really don't think it fake news, but then again, I never thought Russia was fake news.

I have watched FOX news intentionally a few times, and it is nothing more than a anti left, lets make the left look like they are bad people when they are not. Pro trump, news station that will never, unless forced, report negative things about trump.

To be fair, he wasn't a reporter, he was an analyst that got very little air time.

And besides, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Of course, with FoxNews, if there's a democrat in the White House, they are full of lies and misinformation; now since there is a "Republican" in the White House, FoxNews is a propaganda machine.

But the same goes in reverse for channels like MSNBC or CNN.

Here's the bottom line--all 24-hour news channels are full of lies and misinformation, and act as propaganda machines at one point or another, depending on who is POTUS (or, rather, which party is POTUS) and which issue is of concern at the time.

So some guy with an opinion said something about FOX.

If I could find something some guy said about MSNBC or CNN, then "whataboutism".

*shrug*



Here's my opinion about every news program;

They all lie, they all have agendas, they all say things for money, and none of them care about facts.

But we have free speech, free expression, so I will fight for every station, every liar, every program to stay on the air.

I believe that free speech and state sponsored propaganda are two different things.

I am pretty sure that by law all the media has to answer to the whitehouse and have to adjust their stories accordingly.

Notice the whitehouse is no longer capitalized.

It is a win when a human on either side of the isle wakes up.

It's not that he called out FOX but he put an insider face on what some of us knew to be the case or at least suspected, it is my view that the other news CH. followed them to keep up with ratings , so yeah a pox on all their houses, but the degradation of the 5th estate began with them.

If we start parsing what we think k free speech should be, then we have lost it.

a reply to: Spider879

If you go into it knowing they have an agenda, then nothing they say should surprise you.

I'm actually surprised the few times when they didn't blatantly mislead or outright lied.

ok then

so dear mao how are the troops in the whitehouse doing?

Are they up to par?

You missed the point that any laws that legalize propaganda are against free speech and the 1st amendment.

You then retort with making propaganda laws is in itself free speech.

I pay the satellite company (DISH) a lot of money to entertain me when I turn on the television.


There are hundreds of channels with prancy ponies and dancing clowns, all highly paid to entertain me.


None, no one, not a single soul on the tv box is there to just tell me the facts.

No one is.

No one does.


They tell you their version of their truth, and their truth is the lie they want to believe and want you to believe it also.

Are lies (in your opinion) protected under free speech?

Depends, satire is protected speech, lying about your book keeping or on someone could land you in court.

Fox News may only be the tip of the iceberg, here. The same muckraker who wrote Clinton Cash, has come out with a more balanced "kill them all" book about nepotism in D.C. It deals with both Repubs''and Dems', family members getting rich off of Fed. decisions. He calls out everyone, as "Secret Empires". And then everyone wonders why A.G. Sessions is only sitting on his behind??

This is getting dangerous. Our military could stage a Putsch and put just about any and every body in the D.C. power structure on trial for treasonous actions. But grabbing the Tiger's tail, leaves a lot to be desired, on the way out.

Every party line is propaganda. But there's a big difference between "White" propaganda, and "Black Propaganda". Joseph Goebbels was a master of both. Fox News only pushes a White Propaganda. Otherwise they'd be sued out of existence.

Whoever was really behind Uranium One, would have gotten away, save for that Cannuck inspector getting dusted with yellow cake, from Wyoming Uranium, which never left the U.S.A. "on paper". When the lid blew off that canister, it really blew the lid off of this scandal. Where was that yellow cake going to?? And would a fission bomb made from it, leave fallout, traceable right back to a mine in Wyoming??
