Thank God, I Don't Watch Fox!

Fox News announced Monday that having Tucker Carlson was not enough, so they went out to get a fellow ahistorical-race troll, Ben Shapiro..

According to Mediaite, The Ben Shapiro Election Special will air on Sundays, and last four weeks.

"Ben is a rising star," said John Finley, Fox News senior VP of development and production, of Ben Shapiro. "In conservative political commentary and we are excited to add his signature style and well though out viewpoint to our pre-election weekend line-up."

What great news for America!

"I am honored to partner with FOX news," said Shapiro in a statement as nasally in writing, as when he's speaking. "Where we can provide in-depth analysis on the voting trends that will be leading the polls this November," added Shapiro.

No news "provide in-depth analysis," like Fox News. Hopefully, he gets to report Republicans getting their asses kicked!

Here's tweets Ben has about his new employer:

Ben may present himself as a conservative Jew, but he's really a troll.

His tweet about people calling conservatives Nazis:

In 2008, from his article The Danger of 'Youth Movements':

Why in the world should we be excited about young Americans defining our politics?

No political mass movement led by young people has ever resulted in good. In fact, the most murderous mass movements in history have been led by young people. Nazism became popular among the youth before it became the German national theology.

Lack cognitive dissonance? Perfect for Fox News.

Furthermore, he says "facts don't care about your feelings." Yet, his debate tactics aren't about facts, but more about his feelings.

As Nathan J Robinson points out:

Ben Shapiro is not the sort of person one can have a productive discussion with; he says openly that his mission is to "destroy" leftists. That means that he isn’t trying to sort out ideas and get to the truth, he’s just trying to use debate tricks like the “gish gallop" (saying a lot of dubious things very quickly so that your opponent struggles to respond to them all) to overwhelm his opponent and make himself seem smarter than them.
