I have never watched the fox so called news network in my life , always hated tv news shows of any kind and preferred the paper , no commercials .
So I watched the documentary Out Foxed today . i have to tell you , man these people are not only hideous but complete freaks .I cannot understand what the attraction would be to even watch this network for anyone , do people like a freak show of talking heads ? They appear to me to be assembled from salvaged body parts without thought . All are defensive and aggressive which makes them all that much more hideous .
I do know now that people like these do exist , the last place I worked for 12 years was full of people just like this , it must be a disease you can contract just by tuning into Fox .
As for the point of this film , I agree and understand fully but I have to say I feel slimed looking at these people fox transports into peoples homes .

3. Don't you love their "talking points of the day" memo -- the mindless |
|
phrases that then appear like clockwork coming out of right-wing mouths.
Flip-flop is the one I remember most from the movie -- "sofa soldiers" has shown up on my favorite message board lately -- this is used to describe people like Kerry and Murtha instead of the pilonidalcyst//"other priorities" crew.
Great flick, "OUTFoxed" -- I highly recommend it.

4. It is worth the watch . |

I must say it is difficult to watch these sick sell outs in the media , and that made the film difficult for me to watch without smashing in the tv set . Each film of this sort I watch brings me to a boil , all the un -series by greenwald and moores films . I saw red . I have the magazine type book called Addicted to WAR when it came out and this too just burns me .
All of this should be required reading for all people who intend to join up with the military or those that go vote .
In my opinion people need to take an interest even if they think they may dissagree . They need to open their eyes to all literature offered .
What may work is to use those huge screens as they have in NYC times square and put these all over the country showing the madness 24/7 .
