Damning Fox News Supercut From ‘Daily Show’ Exposes Network’s Newest Hypocrisy
Ed Mazza – February 11, 2022
Fox News has turned the Canadian trucker protests into its latest obsession, with many of its hosts practically cheering drivers opposed to vaccine mandates as they shut down key border crossings.
The right-wing network’s coverage of rising tension at the northern border has been very different from how its personalities have handled southern border dramas.
A new “Daily Show” supercut shows the hypocrisy by mashing up footage of the trucker protests with comments Fox News figures have made about migrants approaching from the south:https://www.youtube.com/embed/qSSg1J7EYSo?rel=0
The trucker blockade began with a protest over coronavirus vaccine mandates.
However, the Canadian Trucking Alliance, which represents truckers, said last month that “a great number of these protestors have no connection to the trucking industry and have a separate agenda.”
That agenda seems increasingly linked to the far right, with some protesters waving Confederate flags and Nazi swastikas.
