So will FOX News not carry the Republican Convention as well?
When the other cable networks are covering it (albeit with varying degrees of whoring) and you are the only one of the big three who had a conservative talk show host yammering over the national anthem, aren't you pretty much confirming what was generally suspected about your news organization all along? And should we expect that FOX is going to give the same snobbish disregard to the Republican Convention?

1. They didn't show Richardson's intro to Gore either. I don't know when
they actually flipped over and started showing Gore's speech.

6. Hey, c'mon you unpatriotic bastard. Love it or leave it.
Republicans are the REAL Americans. Whimpering, elite, wine sipping, cheese eating liberal, effeminate, northeastern, liberal establishment snobs like you should just shut up.

We'll, you just know that the cable networks are going to make Bush look like the second coming and throw the above kind of shit at us. And what the hell do we do about it?

Sigh.

7. Who cares what they do?
People who watch Fox will not be swayed by anything said at the DNC anyway.

9. Exactly!
They're about two years away from using sock puppets to pander to their viewing audience.

8. When there's any down-time at the Pukefest
Faux will simply go to "The Real Ronald Reagan" propaganda piece they produced a while back. We ought to have a drinking game about how many times "Ronald Wilson Reagan" will be said in 3 days at MSG. Getting completely toasted might be the only way to get through it all.

10. You got that right.
They certainly won't want to focus on the Bush Republican results, as much as the 1% er's appreciate what they have delivered.

11. O'Reilly and Morris
Bill O'reilly's interview with Dick Morris during Gore's speech was an absolute outrage. I have never seen Morris so tasteless and disgusting and that's saying a lot. So far Foz has done nothing but have anti-Dem and anti-Kerry propoganda on instead of showing one minute of the convention.
