Default Re: Fox trumps Netroots; bloggers rebel

Frankly, for my part, I'd just as soon see the candidates in a three way mud wrestling competition as watch them on Fox. A lot of the truck stops I've been in lately have had that channel on in the restaurant. I'd say to myself, "Wow, finally going to hear some news as it's happening like the rest of the T.V. watchers!"
NOT
They talk about the same stuff as they did 30 minutes or two days ago and then drag out some crock to give an opinion on the "big breaking news story."

Then I read somewhere it is Fox that has that American Idol or survivor or some such trash and I thought, "Oh! Now I get it!"
Fox NEWS (and probably other channels I haven't viewed recently) is the equivalent of Caesar's three ring circus, in my estimation.
Keeping the masses entertained.
