Tonight on "Hannity and Colmes" they featured "Sights and Sounds of the |
|
War in the Middle East" at the end of tonight's show.
It was an un-narrated 30 second video montage of sirens, rockets, ambulances, and walking wounded. Fortunately, unseen by the viewers was Shawn Hannity rubbing himself subconsciously under the desk.
For all the world it reminded me of NASCAR's "Turn It Up" segment where Darryl Waltrip tells the fans: "We're gonna be quiet here in the booth so you folks at home can "turn it up" and listen to sounds of racin'....boogity, boogity, boogity!"
Fox news has plunged their armchair generals right into the glorious thrill of righteous battle complete with surround sound explosions, machine guns, and agonizing screams.
While I personally found the footage offensive in a depressing way, I have a feeling it will be a regular feature at the end of the show.....As fans sit ready with their thumb on the volume button.
"Turn It Up", it only looks dangerous on the big screen.

First they had Haifa TV, then Beirut, then Ramallah and a rather curious item from Iran about Spanish protestors against Israel wearing Palestinian scarves that were considered offensive by some. But it was over thirty minutes not just a few minutes.
