Jim Carrey responds to Fox News: They 'will be remembered as nothing more than a giant culture fart'

[IDemo]

We can guess who Bill O’Reilly will dub Pinhead of the Week.

Jim Carrey has released a statement against Fox News (he refers to it in his official statement as “Fux News”) after the network spent the past week attacking his Funny or Die video. In Carrey’s song, “Cold Dead Hand,” which already has racked up over 1.8 million views, the comedian takes on gun enthusiasts with lyrics such as, “The angels wouldn’t take him up to heaven like he planned, cause they couldn’t pry that gun from his cold dead hand.”

Along with the video, Carrey expressed his views about the musical project on Twitter, writing, in part, “Gun folks are afraid that control won’t stop with large magazines. Their nervousness is far less important than the safety of our children. ‘Cold Dead Hand’ is abt u heartless motherf%ckers unwilling 2 bend 4 the safety of our kids.”

Read Carrey’s full statement, where he refers to ‘Fux News’ as “a last resort for kinda-sorta-almost-journalists whose options have been severely limited by their extreme and intolerant views; a media colostomy bag that has begun to burst at the seams and should be emptied before it becomes a public health issue,” below:

13. I wish that's all it would have been just a smelly fart on history.

They have done terrible harm to this country with their propaganda. I have to deal with people on a daily basis who believe every word they are told on Fox News.

14. Well, large intestine polyp, but I don't think FOX is worthy of the "fart" rank.

At least something useful comes out of farting.

15. A comedy channel attacking a comedian

They might as stop beating around the bush and come out and say exactly what they mean


"Attention morons who are stupid enough to still think we are a news channel, what else do we need to do to get it through your thick skulls?"
