Fox News host Sean Hannity dedicated a segment of his Thursday show to deliver a message to Pope Leo XIV, suggesting he and others at the Vatican had totally lost sight of the true meaning of the bible and its teachings.

Hannity thinks he (and Trump) knows more about how the Bible should be read and interpreted than the Pope?.......

Do these people even hear themselves?

It's quite interesting how close hannity is to trump, he has seen having golf meetings with him

Doesn't matter. Magats hear, believe and obey.

It's not so much MAGATs. How can the news allow people to say stuff like this to the public.

The real issue is our quality expectations to the news distribution

Its because its not news. They have the title of news outlet. However they are a conservative commentary channel, and they don't consider facts, neutrality or decour.

Even they have admitted that they are not news: "In 2020, Fox News successfully defended a defamation lawsuit involving Tucker Carlson by arguing that his program was primarily entertainment rather than factual reporting"

And that no reasonable person would mistake it for actual news.

This is pretext for their base, to justify the Pope's upcoming assassination by the US government.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

The US are going to bomb the Vatican and send in the special forces to abduct the pope. It's what they do.

[–] 20cello@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

That's a case I didn't consider yet

[–] Iusedtobeanalien@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

Yes they don't care

Religion is a cloak they wear, they don't really believe it

[–] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 day ago

I mean, this is pretty much a protestant viewpoint so... who cares?

They only hear the sound of cash flowing in their pockets
