‘Fox & Friends’: Delay NBC hurricane telethon because it might help Obama [View all]

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/11/02/fox-friends-delay-hurricane-telethon-because-it-might-help-obama/

these fucking guys!!

The hosts of Fox & Friends on Friday suggested that NBC should postpone a Hurricane Sandy telethon until after the election because making sure that the event did not benefit President Barack Obama was more important than helping storm victims.

NBC announced earlier this week that Christina Aguilera, Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen and Sting would all be performing a the Friday benefit concert, “Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together.” Money collected during the one-hour broadcast will go to the American Red Cross Hurricane Sandy relief efforts.

But because most of the announced stars have supported Obama in the past, conservative media have panned the concert as “an ode to Obama’s grand and glorious leadership during Hurricane Sandy.”

On Friday, Fox & Friends guest host Eric Bolling floated the idea that NBC had rushed the concert “to make President Obama look presidential.”

“It does look like they are trying squeeze things in,” co-host Steve Doocy agreed. “Where are the conservative performers? There aren’t any on the list I saw.
