Is this a parody?

1. I believe it's intended seriously
I went to the Freedom TV website, and they're bona fide wingnuts. It's so bad that I fully expected it to be a parody, however.

Incidentally, there's a guy named Tom Raper who has a ginormous RV dealership in Richmond, Indiana, who advertises on TV stations far & wide. I wonder if this kid is his son. If so, it's typical for the scion of a capitalista to beat the drum for greed. The accent doesn't fit that location, though, so they may not be related.

5. i think he's just really good at acting... in part 2 he calls FOX2 "the enemy".
there's times he almost cracks up that are very telling...

still- it's hard to say.

:shrug:

8. It's pretty clear in Part 2, that it's parody...
"I'm a raper"... playing thick about "don't tax me, bro"... trying to egg people on to say crazy shit... talkin' 'bout goin' fer his shotgun an' thowin' Obama in the river... c'mon!

6. It is really hard to say
Because the best parody creators never get out of character.
But the reason for doubt is that there are people out there in the world that are like that.

7. The only thing to add to that is a big "WooHoo!" as they say in Freepistan.
Jesus. I mean, Jesus. That is some pure distilled peckerwood.
