YouTube is blocker the original Eboni Williams interview as a “technical error”

A former Fox News host said the network was founded for the sole purpose of “demonizing ‘the other’”.

Eboni Williams tore into her former network in an appearance on Thursdayon The Breakfast Club, a nationally syndicated radio show out of New York.

“Fox has a reputation for being bigoted and racist – all for a very good reason,” she said.

Williams said the key to understanding Fox’s approach was to understand its founder, Roger Ailes, who laid out his strategy clearly in his book.

“This man very plainly, in plain sight, says that he is forming a network to speak to one thing and one thing only: the demonizing of the other,” Williams said.

Ailes died in 2017, after being forced out at Fox the previous year over allegations he sexually harassed staffers.

    History of the pro business and the Chamber of congress and the very founding document on the rights corporate media and think tanks and add citizens United to the mix? We the people are through the way things look.

    What did Powel create? Why he motivated the owners of big business into political action to the machine we have today.

    The goal? Push the ship of state to the far right over time as much as possible as the brainwashing of the current population is stunning as trump supporters are delusional to the point of insanity and that’s by design.

    Even the Evangelical right are funded by these people.

    Look at the Internet a hotbed of right wing nonsense and GOP idiocy. Even cnn a waste of time and full of Zionist propaganda.

    Our only chance is someone in Government who has power will read VT and step up and try to fix things as one can always hope for the best!

  3. Let’s not forget the Powel memorandum which led to the development of the current GOP in America and Ailes was on of the rights strategists who sold this country down the river and the entire GOP and their ilk brought us TRump.

    The party is racist and divisive as I await the idiots to come out of the woodwork.

    I have a bit of cash and a fine retirement so I don’t care much anymore but you Republicans are the enemies of my children and grand children who will forever have low wages and endless student loan debt and shit insurance as I dispise the lot of you.

    Fox is your channel and hanity your patron saint.

  4. Listen I don’t begrudge any race their due, but maybe Roger Ailes predicted what was coming, an attack on white Christian heterosexual men. Just maybe. If he did he recognized that a certain agenda was planned, and because the masses are easily led, and there was nothing, nothing, anyone could do to stop it, maybe, just maybe, he knew he had to take a position as a white man, to make a stand if you will, and fight rather than cave in. Just as plausible is the idea that he was an inside man with a job to do, and that was to further divide the races. Just as plausible is the notion that the speaker here, Ebony Williams, has an agenda too, and it is to also further divide the races. As this isn’t going to stop any time soon everyone has a choice to make. Either choose a side and continue along the path to divide, or come together, and take on the powerful, the planners. There it is. Personally I choose the latter. It’s blood either way. So if I’m going to spill mine I want to do it on the side of right.
