Why Is Neil Cavuto (Fox News) Such a Stooge for Wal-Mart? Originally posted 12/6
OK, we promised we wouldn’t go on any political rants so soon into this project …BUT this guy is just begging for it. We have to admit that every once in a while we turn on Fox News just to see what’s happening in the right wing media world.
Bad mistake to turn on the ‘Fair and Balanced Fox’. It usually ends up raising our blood pressure.
Here’s my point.
Earlier this week Cavuto was bemoaning the fact that Wal-Mart same store sales for ‘black friday were flat’. Oh my gosh, what a national tragedy! He actually had the nerve to try to build a case that the unions and left wing media were trying to smear the good name of Wal-Mart. What world do you live in Neil?
He has made reference to the fact that if Wal-Mart is such a bad place to work, why were thousands lined up to fill out applications for 300 some odd jobs in south Chicago? It’s simple Neil you jerk, its because those are the only jobs available in the area. All the $20 – $25/hr manufacturing jobs in the area are gone you idiot.
He also constantly tries to convince folks that ‘ the economy is in great shape’, just look at the unemployment numbers! They are the best since the hay days of the Clinton era. More bull? Wake up Neil, the old middle class is being systematically being destroyed.
We challenge you Neil to run a poll on Fox News with Rupert’s money and find out how many that used to be a part of the middle class have given up looking for a job especially in the 50-65 age bracket. Find out how many people are working 2-3 part time jobs to try to equal the money they made for the manufacturing job they lost and will never replace. Sure corporate profits are rosy, but the middle class in this country is being destroyed by NAFTA and CAFTA.
We wish someone would let the air out of that big head of yours. You think Wal-Mart is such a great place to work, try it for a week and let us know, support your family on $18K a year, no benefits and being forced to work off the clock. Do it for a day and you’d be singing a different song.
Oh yeah, hope your Wal-Mart stock didn’t take to big a hit, and stop being such a stooge for a company that does more harm than good for the American middle class..
Update: Since we originally posted this on another blog, Stooge Boy has dragged at least three different people on the show to debate the different views of the the same Wal-Mart trash. Neil, are you going to loose them as a sponsor??
Merry, Merry
