Fox News Watch Panel Dismisses Charges That SCOTUS 'Gutted' Voting Rights Act

For anyone who was wondering where Howard Kurtz is going to land next week after he leaves CNN's Reliable Sources, here you go. Starting next week, Kurtz will no longer be hosting the second worst show that proclaims to be a "media watchdog" show, but the absolute worst, Fox News Watch.

decided to cover this story since their resident hack, Joe Concha was a member of the panel, and surprise, surprise, they didn't give it an ounce of context as well. The post pretty well reads like one by someone who was forced to write about it because one of their fellow employees was on the show when they'd really rather have been doing something else.

Regardless of the allegations here that MSNBC did not give enough context to just what the Supreme Court did to gut the Voting Rights Act, they did just the opposite. They explained that striking down Section 4 and relying on this useless, obstructionist, horrid Congress of ours to fix it makes Section 5 useless as well.

They talked about the states who immediately moved to disenfranchise voters as soon as this ruling went through. They discussed just how political this Supreme Court has become and how they knew exactly what they were doing, and how this has been a dream of Chief Justice John Roberts for a long, long time now.

Regardless of what anyone thinks of the network, or Al Sharpton, when it comes to the Voting Rights Act ruling, there was plenty of context and if you need more just go read some of the posts on their site on the issue.
