FOX News talking points for NC shirt/flag flap (a calculated guess) |
|
Edited on Wed Sep-12-07 02:21 PM by Mike Daniels
Using Bill O'Rielly as an example-
1. Lead in with over the top outrage and be as inflamatory as possible
2. Go to his point/"counterpoint" duo of Michelle Malkin and Kristin Powers.
3. Malkin gets all hot and bothered over the fact that the US flag can't be worn instead of wondering what actions set off the policy to begin with.
4. Kristen Powers rolls over as always and meekly makes some sort of argument about some minor point while basically acknowledging that Bill's manly display of scorn for the county school board is 100% justified.
5. Bill then makes some smirking comment of how "representatives of blah, blah, blah were contacted and invited to participate but they either didn't return his call or responded with "no comment".
6. Bill cuts to commerical and he, Malkin and Powers all massage the others' egos.
FOR HANNITY & COLMES:
Repeat above script except replace Bill/Michelle with Sean and Kristen Powers with Alan.

2. Hot she may be but she's still a hack |
|
I should know by now that FOX News isn't going to have a Dem on that tells Bill/Sean that they're full of crap. That said, Powers might as well not even be on stage as her counterpoint arguments are more "you say tomato, I say tomahto" vs. a hard rebuttal of Biil's or Malkin's stance.

The U.S. Flag Code, section 4-(d) states: "The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery...."
Why does Fox News hate America...?
