The latest scandal to be revealed by Fox is that Hillary Clinton personally ordered Donald Duck to participate in a protest against Donald Trump.
Fox's Bret Baier warned that "There is a new undercover video exposing direct links between the Hillary Clinton campaign and outside groups promoting her campaign."
The videos to which he is referring were supplied by the unscrupulous right-wing hack, James O'Keefe. His Project Veritas is infamous for doctoring videos to be deliberately misleading.
Baier then introduced Fox correspondent James Rosen to flesh out the story. Rosen parroted O'Keefe's line saying that the "Donald Duck agitators...could have run afoul of the laws." Donald Duck agitators?
For some reason though, Rosen left out the fact that O'Keefe is also a convicted criminal. He pleaded guilty to trespassing in the office of U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu. On that mission O'Keefe intended to tamper with the Senator's phone lines, but was caught before he could do so.
Nor did Rosen disclose that O'Keefe's organization is funded by Donald Trump.
So Trump is bankrolling a convicted liar who releases doctored videos critical of Democrats.
And those videos go from Breitbart News (whose chairman runs Trump's campaign) to Fox, (whose ex-chairman is advising Trump). Hmm, the system IS rigged.
As it turns out, The Project Veritas videos actually debunked their own allegations.
Rather than Clinton coordinating with the protest group, she merely responded that she liked the idea when someone mentioned it to her. That got back to the protest group who decided on their own to run with it.
There was no order or coordination coming from the Clinton camp. By the way, even that would not have been improper unless the group was a corporate funded PAC.
But nothing in the story indicates that was the case. Consequently, this is just another bogus bit of propaganda from O'Keefe & Co.
