Fox's Rick Sanchez: Democrats Should 'Be Careful' About Linking Republicans to Threats and Violence

By Heather Thursday Mar 25, 2010 6:00am



Following their reporting on the death threats and acts of vandalism being received by members of Congress, Rick Sanchez and Jessica Yellin both agree that it would be somehow politically dangerous for Democrats to say that the Republican party owns this mess if they don't come out forcefully and denounce it. Yeah right. So let me get this straight. If the Democrats dare to point out that the Republicans are helping to incite these Tea party protesters and stoking the violence instead of denouncing it, now you clowns just gave yourselves an excuse pretend all things are equal and this is just playing politics?

Rick Sanchez and Jessica Yellin apparently couldn't be bothered with pointing out how many Repubican politicians were attending these rallies and how they are courting the Tea Party movement for political gain.

Sanchez followed this segment with a nice "fair and balanced" piece asking whether Ann Coulter used hate speech or not, as if there's any question.

1. he's actually on CNN

[babylonsister]

3. Uh oh. Need more proof of the blurring of cnn's message? I thought

Sanchez was better than that.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

9. Just fixed it...thanks. n/t

[LiberalFighter]

2. Then I suggest the Rick Sanchez plays a major part in the vandalism acts.

[ensho]

4. I was surprised that Jessica admitted that the media caused a lot

of the negativity that is causing the repugs to do and say dangerous things.

she said it at the end of her report, not very loudly and Rick just went over it and ignored it.

I was amazed that she said it.

5. Rick can stuff it.

Cat's out of the bag on this one, and no amount of his 'warnings' will change that.

6. Sanchez lost me yesterday, fully and completly

He had a thing he was pretending to for a time, then slowly he lost it, and yesterday he joined the Hannity club in my book.

[Bumblebee]

8. It's not him, it's CNN -- they decided they want to cater to the right-wingers

because those are so fired up, so they are competing with FOX. It's intolerable to watch their "panels" of pundits these days as well.

[RKP5637]

11. I've always thought sometimes he was border Hannity club.

[ecstatic]

19. Yep. He changed when he got that second hour

Thank goodness for Shuster.

[lunatica]

7. Why does he think we "should be careful"?

Is that a threat? Is that some kind of warning? What exactly will happen? Will we be besmirching the pristine Republican reputation? What?

10. Ari Sanchez wants you to 'watch what you say, watch what you do' n/t

[havocmom]

15. That's what I was wondering.

The whole bunch has watched too many gangster movies or sumtin.

[NNN0LHI]

12. He was the first one to declare the IRS office suicide bomber was not a terrorist

Heard him say it.

Don

[graywarrior]

13. His corporatist bosses are in charge of what he says

[NNN0LHI]

16. I agree. He is just a puppet on a string

[chill_wind]

14. Fox News jackals today:

Dems should agree to stop discussing it altogether. The discussion of it is "disappointing behavior"

17. The GOP is egging them on, Ricky, so it's impossible to not link them.

But you knew that already and are just covering for them.

Why are you pro-violence, Ricky?

You are as useful as a soggy teabag, Ricky.

[Cetacea]

18. FO, Sanchez.

[RKP5637]

20. +1, n/t

[BurtWorm]

21. Is that a threat, Rick?

[Hubert Flottz]

22. Rick Sanchez is CNN's latest Baghdad Beck...

I surf right past CNN and FOX. Also MSNBC until evening.

[dchill]

23. If Democrats Should 'Be Careful'...

then what should Republicans be? Rick? Rick?

[tom_paine]

24. Good old fashioned BushoCorporate Concern Trolling

I'd laugh, but this is no laughing matter.
