4. Aren't Fox network and Fox News
two different entities? I know Fox news tried to sue Fox network over an episode of the Simpsons last year.

6. I believe they are two divisions of a single entity.
It's just a matter of the right hand not knowing what the farther right hand is doing.

Or seen another way, one is the 'dumbing down America, anesthetize the masses' division while the other is the propaganda division.

5. I saw one a couple of months ago...
...albeit it was on Indy's Music Channel (which is hardly republican, they showed Eminem's Mosh just a couple of days ago, and American Idiot, Jadakiss's "Why?", etc.) and at 2AM.

7. Most Fox TV stations not Fox-owned
including the one in Fort Wayne. They are affiliates; they carry the Fox network programming but are otherwise independent of Fox and Murdoch.

8. Time to write to a few local churches, pointing out that
a "local station" was "purveying filth" with men-on-men personals.

Include the call letters & station number, but don't give out the obvious - that it's a Fox station.

You might actually stir up something . . .
