SO something really sooper-extra stupid happened on Fox News today. Like something so cartoonishly absurd people honestly thought it was a photoshop.

Man, that is bad. I know some will reflexively defend Fox News, but this is exactly what you would expect from a channel that fit liberals’ exaggerated accusations against them. Don’t do it, Fox.
There were some funny jokes about it:

“Mexican” means “brown person” in Bigoteese.

And this jerk:
I mean, to be fair to @FoxNews, this is much easier to remember than all those weird names. @edhenry pic.twitter.com/Yg7mGD8TKd

But check out Stelter’s reaction:
This is an actual banner from "Fox & Friends Weekend." 6:03am today. I double checked because I didn't believe it at first. Hat tip @BadFoxGraphics pic.twitter.com/tTNH0Y7a25

And he beat up Fox News on his show too:
But @brianstelter we do know what’s going on! Billionaires like Murdoch and Mercer sell racist conspiracies to their white audiences as part of a strategy of divide and conquer — to ensure white people never vote to tax billionaires like themselves. pic.twitter.com/QqJpEJG1OU

This is the very definition of “pouncing” that the media uses falsely against the right. The mainstream media has just been slapped down with an incredibly devastating defeat in the collusion wars, and Stelter is going to focus on this, admittedly stupid, error from Fox News.
That’s the “objective” news – when the media or democrats make a mistake, Stelter brings on liberals to defend them, and when Fox News or Trump or some conservative makes a mistake, Stelter brings on liberals to attack them. Perfectly fair, right? LOL!
And that’s why we don’t trust Stelter ever, and why we mock him mercilessly.
