Using terms like “invasion,” “flood” and “replacement,” the El Paso shooter sounded an awful lot like some talking heads on Fox News — and President Donald Trump.
According to a New York Time analysis, there are hundreds of examples of overlap in lexicon and ideology between prominent rightwing voices — on Fox News, conservative radio shows, Sinclair Broadcasting packages, etc. — and the shooter’s written beliefs, all centering on a fear of and animosity to immigrants of color.
Usage of those words and ideas to describe immigrants also became more prevalent after Trump was elected, the Times found.
The El Paso shooter left behind a screed endorsing the theory of “Great Replacement,” that an influx of people of color into the United States will lead to the dying out of white people.

Fox just following Jesus’s command to fed the hungry masses. Who knew he was talking about food and not bullshit?
Thanks to Ms. Riga for “screed”. The “manifesto” line is getting old, and was bullshit to begin with.
Well shit
Ya Think so
Tune into Faux on any given day of any week and no matter what is going on like Murders,Mayhem, Mass shootings, Fires ,Trainwrecks the ever present chryon
“Crisis at the Border”
This is especially true if there is something negative about Fat Nixon in the news
Then we go to the stock film of people flooding over the border or a nice story about a poor white person killed by an “illegal” alien.
The further we get into this election the worse it will get , because obviously that’s what he’s running on
They can deny it…trouble is, it IS a motivator for 'em. They are locked in. To NOT do it would be like playing “Jeopardy” on TV for pennies instead of dollars…

Narrator: Fox did not alter course.
