The 6 most ridiculous stories Fox & Friends covered this week to avoid discussing Trump scandals



http://www.rawstory.com/2017/05/here-are-the-6-most-ridiculous-stories-fox-friends-covered-this-week-to-avoid-discussing-trump-scandals/

1.) The debunked Seth Rich conspiracy theory. Earlier this week, fringe conspiracy websites such as InfoWars began pushing a new conspiracy theory that slain DNC staffer Seth Rich had been in contact with WikiLeaks shortly before his murder last summer. The basis of the story was a former Fox News contributor named Rod Wheeler who was hired by a third party to serve as a “private investigator” for the Rich family.

2. “Nasty, sneering” liberals attacking Miss USA. Earlier this week, Miss USA winner Kara McCullough drew controversy when she said that health care should be viewed as a privilege for people who have jobs, not a right given out just for existing. Although McCullough has since walked back her comments, that didn’t stop Fox & Friends from taking up her cause and making her the latest victim of intolerant liberals.

3. Students at a Christian high school name their model rocket after President Trump. When students at the Victory Christian Center School decided to come up with a name for their rocket, they decided to name it after the president because he represents the spirit of “conquering” they want to embody. It goes with out saying that Fox & Friends was all over this story.

4. Marco Rubio attacked for sharing Bible verses on Twitter. After some pundits objected to Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) posting Bible verses on his Twitter account in the wake of mounting Trump scandals, Fox & Friends invited him on to talk about what must have been a harrowing experience.
