Russell Brand Rants At Fox News 'Savages' & You'll Totally Agree Why In this provocative segment, Russell Brand takes aim at Fox News, particularly targeting Fox host Judge Jeanine Pirro's recent comments regarding President Obama's foreign policy. Brand critiques her stance on radical Islamist terrorism and how it fuels a culture of fear-mongering in American media.

Key Highlights:​

  • Brand's outrage is spurred by Pirro's inflammatory remarks claiming a 60% increase in terrorism during Obama's presidency, implying that his policies have contributed to national security risks. He highlights Pirro's accusatory rhetoric, accusing Obama of "cut and run" tactics and being a "paper tiger" in global relations.
  • Comparing Pirro to a "self-parody," Brand argues that her exaggerated commentary resembles that of extremist propagandists, suggesting that the line between media reporting and sensationalism has become dangerously blurred.
  • Brand emphasizes the hypocrisy of calling for violence against terrorists while overlooking the violent implications of such rhetoric in Western media, pointing out that Fox News' approach to reporting often mirrors extremist narratives.

    Analysis:​

    Russell Brand's commentary invites a broader discussion on the role, responsibility, and influence of news media in shaping public perception of global issues. He articulates that sensationalist media tactics may exacerbate fears rather than inform the public, encouraging an atmosphere of divisiveness and hatred, particularly towards Islam and its practitioners. This video serves as a critical reminder of how various media platforms can twist the reality of complex geopolitical situations for ratings, often sacrificing truth for sensationalism.
