Fox News is A-OK with killing fellow news journalists at Aljazeera

Leaning over a large satellite image of the city, Hume and the analyst plotted the two-pronged attack for the national television audience. While pointing to a specific location on the map, the retired general described Aljazeera as a "dirty little propaganda machine for the insurgents" and said, "Last time they showed pictures of civilian causalities; that's not going to happen this time."

Mr. Hume expressed no concern whatsoever about the apparent U.S. decision to, essentially, execute fellow journalists for revealing inconvenient facts. In fact, Hume did not react at all to the comments.

1. Fox "news" employs no journalists, just talking heads

or hacks or Stepford announcers, or bo-tox babes.

2. You're right

My mistake. I've got to quit looking for a hidden glimmer of decency in those folks.

3. Faux news should start animating the news or using claymation anchors

and have a split-screen with Nascar.
