US right-wing influence

The right-wing media in the US is relentless in its attack on President Barack Obama. Its attacks are rude and demeaning. Also simplistic.

The Iran agreement signed this week is currently coming under sustained criticism.

Patriot Radio is non-stop in its Obama opposition.

There seem to be parallels with  the modus operandi of  the right-wing media and that of the right-wing Catholic Church.

It's intersting to observe. Frightening too.

Has the Irish Catholic Church been unduly influenced by right-wing US Catholicism?
