Faux news should be investigated by the FCC not boobie gate. |
|
Right now they are talking about about Gore's speech. The fair and balanced forum consist of 3 conservative pundits and Brit Hume as the moderator.
There should be some type of standard that you have to stand up to if you are going to call yourself news.

1. It ain't gonna happen. |
|
Not with Colon (sic) Powell's kid in charge of the FCC. That appointment wasn't made by accident. Rove was behind it, no doubt.

2. I am utterly offended by that "channel". |
|
The call themselves "FOX", huh? That must mean "Fawning Over XXX". What a dirty, dirty channel! That Greta van Sustren guy is the worst looking transvestite I've ever seen. Kids all over the country are going to want to be just like her.
And they never show more than half of the American flag on their banners. That means they promote cutting the flag into pieces and burning it. That's it, I'm suing for damages not exceeding $3.45 gigazillion.
That should cover all the mental & physical damages from watching that freakshow Cannity or whatever his name is.

4. It won't happen because the FCC does not have enforcement power over cable |
|
Only over the broadcast airwaves. Faux is a cable news channel, therefore untouchable by the FCC. I recommend you vote with your remote, and your wallet.
