Who was talking about Fox news? Weren't we discussing opinionated comedians? That's Fox News. I am never disappointed that you can twist any conversation around to an opportunity to express your political opinion. Typically with some totally unrelated brain fart. Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize you took Fox News seriously. |

I view Fox News "reportage and commentary" as opinionated comedy. Your mileage obviously varies. Ever watched Steve Doocy? Remember him from the time he was the nightly news show clown on one of the local stations? No one took him seriously then, and no one should now. And Steve isn't the only example of a Fox News clown. |

I'm not sure what McNamara and Johnson have to do with this post, Fox News, or Steve Doocy. Sorry. |
