I told the guy I thought faux "news" was too biased and could he pleased change it to cnn or msnbc? He snickered at the "biased" part of my request. I'm not sure what the snicker meant, but he changed it to cnn.

1. The "snicker" meant that Fox has brainwashed him into thinking all other media outlets are "liberal"

and therefore are suspect and lying.

Only Fox tells the truth. That's what Fox viewers think. That is Ailes' genius I guess, to get a 24/7 lie fest going that convinces the viewers everyone else is lying.

5. This reminds me. I've been meaning to see if I can block FOX
News where I work. I should only need a few minutes alone with the TV's and remotes. I think I can pull it off.
