That's what's going on right now on the cable news networks.

Unbelievable!
What's their next segment?
Ummm ... how about Benghazi?
I'm switching back to MSNBC before I puke.
edit: was just about to change channels, and she moved on to the "failure of Obamacare."

(2,640 posts)Last week, when the other networks were covering the typhoon, Faux gave non-stop coverage to the ACA. I believe the exhausted the entire thesaurus, cause they used words like "disaster," "catastrophe," "mess," "boondoggle," etc etc etc. in every headline.

(15,064 posts)JFK murder. I was 13 in the deep south and remember some people in my classroom cheering when they heard about Kennedy's murder over the intercom. These jerks probably grew up to be Fox watchers. I moved away because of the right wing racism and the ridiculous "communist under every bush" bull. At that time you just had to put up with it or have your butt kicked by a right wing racist bully. I am Caucasian and was called a 'n' lover because I was not bigoted or racist and considered MLK a hero. There was a deep hatred for Kennedy because he promoted socially progressive causes. I lost count of how many times I heard people say that Kennedy needed to be assassinated back then. Some of those same people actually believed that there was a conspiracy, on their side within the government, to get rid of Kennedy. I know some of those people are alive today and probably still believe this. Fox not covering the memorial would just reinforce their beliefs.

Again, another segment on the "disaster" that is Obamacare.
