Reefer Madness: Laura Ingraham Attacks Marijuana Instead Of Focusing On Gun Violence
Source: Alex Wong / Getty Laura Ingraham previously demonstrated an ability to use her platform irresponsibly and did so again during a broadcast. During a segment of her show, Ingraham attacked marijuana legalization and attempted to link the action to the recent uptick in gun violence. During a The Ingraham Angle segment on Tuesday (May 31), the host made the fumbling attempt to connect marijuana with the rash of mass shootings cropping up across America. Instead of using the time to delve into the haphazard laws and regulations surrounding gun control, Ingraham took a lower road. Speaking with Dr. Russell Kamer, the medical director of Partners in Safety, a group that fashions drug testing initiatives for employers, was framed to demonize all things cannabis. “Why aren’t people i...
Virginia Karen Komplains Critical Race Theory Has Her Biracial Son Refusing To Do Chores Because, Racism
HipHopWired Featured Video By all indications, there’s a white mother in Charlottesville, Virginia, who is using her biracial son’s newfound appreciation for his Blackness as an excuse to be racist AF and express her long-held belief that Black people invoke racism to evade accountability, not because we actually experience racism all the damn time. Or at least that’s my best guess for why she’s out here claiming her son is calling her racist because she makes him do chores. “We didn’t have issues before. He is in eighth grade,” Melissa Riley told Fox News. “He’s seeing himself just as a Black man. He’s seeing things that don’t go his way as racism. And he is finding safety in numbers now.” Riley is among other plaintiffs who filed a lawsuit against the Albemarle County School Board in Dec...
Of Course Fox News Takes Issue With Eminem Taking A Knee At The Super Bowl
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: VALERIE MACON / Getty Many people figured that the Hip-Hop led Super Bowl Halftime Show was bound to rub conservatives and Trumpians the wrong way, one way or another. But when Eminem took a knee on stage (whether to pay homage to Tupac or Colin Kaepernick), y’all just knew the far-right was going to flip their MAGA lids. During a Fox News segment led by anchor Joe Concha, he discussed the “controversial” moment at the Super Bowl Halftime Show with an all-female panel and after taking a few shots at Colin Kaepernick, Concha asserted that Eminem shouldn’t have taken the stage if he planned on taking a knee the whole time. “If he truly wanted to be courageous here, he could’ve protested by not performing at the halftime show at all,” Concha said. “Instead h...
So…Fox News & Candace Owens Are Big Mad Minnie Mouse & M&Ms Aren’t Sexy Anymore
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: David Nivière / Getty So… I’m not normally the type of person to kink shame, but we really need to talk about these weird-a** fetishes that seem to be running rampant on Fox News and in the warped world of right-wingers in general. Why do Fox News pundits and their guests have their star-spangled Klanny-panties all in a bunch over new Minnie Mouse and M&M cartoon design changes? On Wednesday, Fox host Jesse Watters brought on sunken place lost and found mascot Candice Owens to talk about what she appears to think is an important issue—Disney putting Minnie Mouse in a blue and black polka dot pantsuit instead of her classic red and white polka dot skirt. “This is why people don’t take these people seriously,” Owens griped. “They’re taking all these thi...
Fox News Has Meltdown Over Minnie Mouse’s Pantsuit
Another day, another round of meltdowns at Fox News. Last week, Tucker Carlson ranted about the “less sexy” female M&Ms, and now Candace Owens is upset about Minnie Mouse wearing pants. On Tuesday, Disneyland Paris announced that the iconic mascot would be getting a chic makeover for the park’s upcoming 30th anniversary. Minnie will be temporarily swapping out her classic red polka dot dress for a chic pantsuit designed by Stella McCartney, all in honor of Women’s History Month. Naturally, multiple Fox personalities spun into a spiraling rage blackout. “This is why people don’t take these people seriously, they are taking all of these things, that nobody was offended by and feel they have to get rid of them and destroy them,” railed Owens in an appearance on Jesse Watters Primetim...
Tucker Carlson is “Totally Turned Off” by “Less Sexy” Female M&M’s
The M&M’s “more inclusive” rebrand stirred up a lot of reaction this week, but no one is angrier about it that Tucker Carlson. The Fox News host dedicated an entire segment on his eponymous show, Tucker Carlson Tonight, to rant and rave about the M&M’s gang’s new look — specifically directing his ire at the changes in the female M&M’s. (Ms. Green traded her go-go boots for a pair of sneakers, while Ms. Brown’s heels were lowered to a sensible, more professional height.) “M&M’s will not be satisfied until every last cartoon character is deeply unappealing and totally androgynous. Until the moment you wouldn’t want to have a drink with any one of them. That’s the goal,” Carlson opined. “When you’re totally turned off, we’ve achieved equity; they’ve won.” Advertisement Related...
Laura Ingraham Clowned On Twitter For Goofy Exchange Over ‘You’ Series
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: SOPA Images / Getty Laura Ingraham, like many in popular conservative media circles, loves using the “woke” dog whistle to signal to her viewers that she’s all about making sure anything calling differing from their side is an attack. Once more, the Fox News host aired a segment on her show claiming that “viewers like woke-free TV” and discussing the Netflix hit You, prompting Twitter to throw some virtual tomatoes at the “attempt” at humor. During the segment that aired on The Ingraham Angle, Ms. “Shut Up and Dribble” herself appeared in quite the unfunny segment on her show that almost seemed ripped off from The Onion. Again, the term “woke” has been co-opted by conservative pundits to frame anything that calls out their bigotry and ham-handed idi...
Pentagon: US team going to Haiti to assess needs
A team of U.S. security and law enforcement experts is traveling to Haiti to determine what assistance Washington can provide following the assassination of the Haitian president last week, the Pentagon said on Sunday. “Today, an inter-agency team largely from the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI are heading down to Haiti right now to see what we can to do help in the investigative process,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told “Fox News Sunday.” “That’s really where our energies are best applied right now – in helping them get their arms around investigating this incident and figuring out who’s culpable … and how best to hold them accountable,” Kirby said in the interview. President Joe Biden will be briefed by the team when it returns and “then make decisions about the way forwa...
Tucker Carlson Decries “WAP” Grammys Performance: “Trying to Degrade Our Culture and Hurt Our Children”
On Monday night, conservative snowflake Tucker Carlson threw his latest hissy fit about Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s No. 1 hit, “WAP”, claiming their Grammys performance was proof that “they’re intentionally trying to degrade our culture and hurt our children.” Despite being so outraged about the display, the Tucker Carlson Tonight host continued to play the performance in the background and nearly showed the entire thing. The Daily Beast captured the segment, in which Carlson started disingenuously ranting about the “culture vandals” reexamining the racist and misogynist tones of Dr. Seuss, Disney, and Looney Tunes characters. He then aired “the only portion we can play you,” a statement he went back on shortly afterward. “No more Dumbo, it’s too filthy. We get that instead,” he said...

First Americans vaccinated as U.S. death toll passes 300,000
An intensive care unit nurse became the first person in the United States to receive the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on Monday, calling it a sign that “healing is coming,” as the U.S. coronavirus death toll crossed a staggering 300,000 lives lost. Sandra Lindsay, who has treated some of the sickest COVID-19 patients for months, was given the vaccine at Long Island Jewish Medical Center in the New York City borough of Queens, an early epicenter of the country’s COVID-19 outbreak, receiving applause on a livestream with New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. “It didn’t feel any different from taking any other vaccine,” Lindsay said. “I feel hopeful today, relieved. I feel like healing is coming. I hope this marks the beginning of the end of a very painful time in our history. “I want to instil...
Donald Trump’s bias hawk FCC nominee one step closer to confirmation
On Wednesday, the Senate Commerce Committee voted to advance the nomination of Nathan Simington, a Republican in favor of greater government oversight of speech on the internet, to the Federal Communications Commission. Simington’s nomination now awaits a floor vote for final approval. President Donald Trump nominated Simington to be the next Republican FCC Commissioner in September. If approved, Simington would fill Republican Commissioner Mike O’Reilly’s seat, leaving the agency at 2-2 deadlock when Chairman Ajit Pai steps down on January 20th. Without a Democratic majority at the FCC, the Biden administration will likely have difficulties rolling through any major policy measures until another nominee is vetted and approved. In August, Trump abruptly withdrew O’Reilly’s renomination for...
