Comedian Seth MacFarlane blasted Fox News and network host Tucker Carlson on Twitter Saturday, saying remarks made by Carlson made him embarrassed to work for the Fox network.
MacFarlane, whose television show The Orville airs on Fox, was responding to CNN media correspondent, Brian Stelter, who criticized Carlson for telling his viewers to assume the opposite of what other news media are reporting.
In other words, dont think critically, dont consult multiple news sources, and in general, dont use your brain, MacFarlane said.
This is fringe shit, and its business like this that makes me embarrassed to work for this company, he added.

I'm fine with someone like Mcfarlane making money on FOX while he criticizes them. Never seen his show, nor want to, so I assume it's not some new aged Archie Bunker without Meathead and others to counter the racism and hatred.

Legitimate people, groups, organizations or churches should not fear that their message is strong.
