"Fox & Friends" Slams "Captain America: Sam Wilson" #1

Funny how they didn't feel the need to complain about this when they were a villain in the last Daredevil series.

Hooo boooy, they would have a field day with that arc. A secret cabal of conservative white supremacists that have running the New York government from the shadows? You know that would tick them off.

The Fantastic Network Fox does it again.

Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot us on the right don't have a right to voice our opinion. When I saw this book at my LCS, I knew it was a dog. After flipping through, I was right.

I don't think it would.
I think the whole reason for this complaint now is because the hero opposing them is black.

Spencer is getting death threats because of this.

that's going too far. I don't like the book, but I vote with my wallet and don't buy bad books.

[syvyn11]

Thus proving their collective insanity.

Nutters.

How about this. A Marvel comic takes a strong conservative stand, and MSNBC rips the book for being conservative. Would you call MSNBC 'nutters'?

Spencer is getting death threats because of this.

Then he's in good company (i.e., Kirby and Simon).

And Salman Rushdie...

No, but it is constantly played like it is. Please before you criticized someone's belief know what it is, all I have seen so far is that all the people who want to protect the US border are a bunch or red neck racists, they are constantly being be portrayed, so it gets tiresome.

As a Mexican American, I find it very hard to sympathize with the side you're talking about.

The impression that the US's self-appointed border guards are "red neck racists" might be dispelled if they would make more of an effort to behave like anything else whenever they're in the public eye.

What "constant portrayals" are you speaking of?

Please tell me what is Mexico's border policy on their Southern border and/or dealing with other Latin America people crossing their border?

[Allen T]

What "constant portrayals" are you speaking of?

Anytime when the border is discussed in the media

[ian0delond]

What "constant portrayals" are you speaking of?

The one where they wear snake hood and speak in a very pompous fashion.
That 's exactly what people are calling red neck.

Please tell me whet did they actually do? With evidence not "well I heard"

Regardless, politics has always been a part of the Captain America book, so Spencer's just following tradition in that regard.

Seriously, Captain America was punching Hitler before America entered the war.

I don't care what the news outlet is OR what the political leanings are...when a news/media outlet has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING BETTER TO DO than to, in this case very stupidly, bitch about a comic book, with or without poor research, it is OFFICIALLY as slow a news day as it can get. I mean, seriously...it is one thing when us 'commoner fanboys/girls' are doing such griping. But any and all supposedly 'as professional as professional gets' conglomerates? Just all the more indicative of what a jacked-up, to say the very least, day and age this is...

(I do wholeheartedly realize that we are talking about Fox News in all of their 'fair and balanced' fear mongering...but still, if it was CNN or any other outlet, it would still be pretty downright pathetic.)
