Fox News
Has anyone noticed Fox News is giving very little coverage to the situation in Haiti because so much valuable time is needed to cover how bad Democrats and liberals are?

2. Fox "News" is a misnomer.. they don't engage in actual "news"..
the are the propaganda channel of the Republican Party. Their needs to be a constant disclaimer running below their channel that reads: "Political advertisement paid for by the Republican Party".

4. I clicked on it for like 2 seconds, around 5 minutes ago.
I'm guessing Haiti is barely getting 1 mention every hour. See you in hell, Rupert!

7. If I were watching Fox News and did not watch anything else
I would seriously think the earthquake in Haiti was not that big of a deal. A few people killed, a couple displaced, some buildings damaged, etc....

5. Hadn't noticed
Then again, I don't watch FAUX News - ever. Don't need to. Every time Shammity or O'Loofah fart, someone reports back here to let everyone know how it smelled.

6. Freepers were even complaining about it.
They were trying to get Haiti news, but had to switch to CNN to get it. They weren't happy.

Well, idiots, that's because it's not NEWS!

8. Just wait for the first sign of unrest in Haiti
and they'll have non-stop coverage. Worse yet let one US soldier open fire and hit a Haitian and they'll be off and running.

9. I did see a report on some white Americans
that survived, not much on the Haitians that haven't. If there is some violence or looting they will give it 24/7 coverage.
