1. Bud Light - Sarah Palin commercial spins
Someone needs to put together some Bud Light Real American Heroes parodies. That would be a hilarious death nail to her Real American Stories show on Faux.

Actual Bud Light YouTube vids

3. That's true, and the key point that Greenwald makes...
...isn't that Fox exerts influence over its core "faithful"...we already know it.

It;s the fact that they hammer the "talking points" over and over and over again, until they make so much noise that the rest of the media picks it up and runs with it.

It's a winning formula for Fox, and they have no reason to change it. The only way to defeat it is to come up with a better winning formula, which we don;t have, and won;t have, until taking Fox head-on becomes a priority.
