1. Probably waterboard the staff

[spotbird]

2. Aren't they worried about the appearance of

bias?

[Sal Minella]

15. No doubt Fox will hire Noam Chomsky also, to keep their "fair and balanced" reputation pristine.

3. Well, there you go. Another example of them not even trying...

to pretend where their bread is buttered.

On one hand, I hate hypocrisy, so I prefer people (and corporations) be open and honest about their intentions; on the other hand, what does it say when media doesn't even try to hide behind pretense any longer?

Have we gone beyond the tipping point? Someone here likened this decline/deception to frogs being cooked slowly, so slowly they don't realize what's happening.

[lonestarnot]

8. They don't jump out that way.

[wordpix]

4. as KO said last night, he's already been with Faux News for some time

[tanyev]

5. *gasp* Must go get my smelling salts.....

[LiberalEsto]

6. At least the new AG will know

where to send the subpoenas.

Attorney General John Edwards, of course!

7. This guy is a sucker for self delusion. He's is the least television friendly person out there.

Additionally, he is well known for being a manipulative, scheming little turd blossom who is also a criminal who's avoiding prosecution, at the moment...well, FAUX apparently doesn't actually CARE about ratings anymore..:shrug:


on edit: Welcome to transparency Mr. Rove. I'm sure many will watch your statements closely :hi:

[6000eliot]

9. That'll fix their ratings slide.

:sarcasm:

[Generic Other]

10. What's his Q factor????

I'd rather watch an inflamed hemorrhoid erupt than see that man's oleaginous face on my tv screen.

[Botany]

12. What a great word .... oleaginous

Thesaurus

adipose
fat like
fatty
greasy
oily
suety
unctuous

:rofl:

[Eurobabe]

23. vote for word of the week!

yummy.

[shaniqua6392]

11. I am shocked I tell you!!!

Just shocked. I have already canceled my subscription to Newsweek because they brought that ass on board. No need worry about me catching him on Fixed News Channel because I would not be caught dead watching that.

[CoffeeCat]

13. I think this is great news!

Let's look at this from a positive point of view.

Between Rove's WSJ hacking and his Fox News blatherings--maybe he'll have
less time to fix elections and plot election campaigns that usher in the worst
leaders ever to grace the planet.

[bdamomma]

14. just more crap to add to Fox Noise

[peekaloo]

16. Their new lack of color commentator.

:hurts:

[Sal Minella]

22. Yes, the murmurations of a giant maggot. So glad I don't have TV any more.

[CJCRANE]

17. F*** F**

[liberal N proud]

18. Just in time to begin the propaganda against the Democratic nominee

Super Tuesday and on to the Convention and past to the election.

Who would have thought? LOL

[OneGrassRoot]

20. At least we'll know what his strategery is then...

even if we have to read between the lines. lol

[jasmine621]

19. They are afraid. They are very afraid. nt

[sinkingfeeling]

21. Who could have seen that coming?

[TahitiNut]

24. Focks Sux

What else is new?

[lurky]

25. He's been writing their copy for years.

The only difference is that he's in front of the camera now.

[w8liftinglady]

26. Wasn't he indicted?-never mind

[opihimoimoi]

27. Just as Rush bombed at the NFL...Rove will too.....I hope so

[L. Coyote]

28. Just maybe we will see him arrested LIVE on the airwaves.

There is an assumption that he is going to be free in this news!
