CNN is pretty good I think. MSNBC provokes thought because
fundamentally I don't agree with much of what is promoted. But Fox
News is nothing but a Happy Hour for right wing zealots who can't think
for themselves. Facebook? Give me a break.


Back in the good old days of local DC television, Steve Doocey, one of
the stars of the Fox Friends show, was hired by a station to compete
with the NBC affiliate's arts and entertainment and on screen funny guy,
Arch Campbell. This was in the 1970's-1980's. Arch was and is a genuine
character, a bright guy not pretty enough to be the evening news anchor,
but with all kinds of zany talent.

Doocey tried to be the other channel's Campbell, but he mostly succeeded
in getting himself called "Little Stevie Douchebag" by many views
because he didn't seem to know much and every time he tried to make a
point, the strain was obvious.

It's appropriate that Stevie ended up at Fox, on one of its pseudo news
shows.

The early days of MSNBC programming featured news and commentary by the
likes of Anne Coulter and Laura Ingraham.



Oi! Two of the famous Macbeth witches.
