Fox News continues to be obtuse and evil. On their Fox Business subsidiary Stewart Varney and Fox pundit Mark Steyn decided that Bernie Sanders talking about climate change being a larger threat than Islamic terrorism was a starting point for a dark joke.

“He’s brilliant, that guy,” Steyn said in a sarcastic tone. “I mean, al-Baghdadi [leader of ISIS] will be sawing Bernie Sanders’ head off, and he’ll be saying as his neck is being sliced, ‘Oh, if only we had an emissions trading scheme!'” Steyn continued as Varney laughed. “This is insane. And it shows the level of delusion and denial among the Western political leadership.”

They really don't seem to get why Bernie said what he did. They act like someone can't think terrorism is awful while still, rightly, pointing out that climate change is a way bigger threat. That they would laugh while talking about him being beheaded is just.....chilling.
 
"Fox News Monsters Laugh About Thought Of Bernie Sanders Being Beheaded By ISIS."

Shortage of fainting couches expected shortly...

Monsters, jeepers. Thanks for bringing this hysterical overreaction to our attention Travis, there is no way I would have gone to a garbage site like "ADDICTING INFO" otherwise.

MONSTERS!!!!!! :D

Seriously?

YOU have the gall to call out someone else's "hysterical overreaction"?

wow.
 
I get the feeling that Bernie's severed head would do as well on the campaign trail as Bernie.
 
More than once I have criticized Travis for starting threads about worthless things, but I think this topic deserves a thread. I might have written the OP a bit differently, but It is relevant to point this stuff out.
 
You're referring to a mouthpiece for a political party that can't even agree on two issues at the same time. Their outlook of Bernie Sanders isn't all that important, everything they say is garbage unless you already agree with their political biases.
 
Anyone who doesn't think climate change is a bigger threat to the average global citizen is probably a denier/loon.

Climate change affects the social and environmental determinants of health – clean air, safe drinking water, sufficient food and secure shelter.

Between 2030 and 2050, climate change is expected to cause approximately 250 000 additional deaths per year, from malnutrition, malaria, diarrhoea and heat stress.

The direct damage costs to health (i.e. excluding costs in health-determining sectors such as agriculture and water and sanitation), is estimated to be between US$ 2-4 billion/year by 2030.

Areas with weak health infrastructure – mostly in developing countries – will be the least able to cope without assistance to prepare and respond.

Reducing emissions of greenhouse gases through better transport, food and energy-use choices can result in improved health, particularly through reduced air pollution.

Can't be surprised to see the Republicans avoiding the actual issue in favor of "humor" or attacking the OP.

Not a Republican, but there is no issue here, the same as there was no issue with Hillary laughing about an audience member talking about strangling Fiorina.

Come on people, save your outrage for something outrageous for once here.

What topic would that be? It seems that Travis wants to discuss how awful Fox News is. I take issue with his characterization. Fox didn't decide that Bernie's beheading is a laughing matter, but rather Bernie's reaction to his beheading. I personally don't think Bernie would mind. In fact, he would probably laugh his head off.
 
Ironically, socialism of Bernie is a far bigger danger, still, as the slowing down of technological advancement due to the ponderous weight of growing, well-intentioned government, duplicates more and more in effect the weight of dictatorships and repressive regimes.

This will massively outweigh compensatory adaptations to GW.

Better risen seas in 100 years than not risen seas and tech 50 years behind. And no, you cannot have it all. Not that way.

You are calling Fox News evil for laughing at what is widely considered the laughingstock of the Democratic/Socialist party?

Why not just stick to the racism angle. Everything is racism.

Liberals are having a bad week
