Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize you took Fox News seriously. That was not the issue was it? . You stated: "That is OK as long as everyone understands what they are watching." 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. |
