Faux News Channel has become the CAR CHASE channel
Seriously. This morning I saw their third car chase in a week. Faux followed all of them all the way until the end. This mixed with Lacy, Kobe, the college ball player, and the "fair and balanced" propaganda ; They're banking that people can't/won't tell the difference between their junk and real news.

3. For some reason I was watching 'Fox Magazine' this weekend ( a must read)
One of the blondes was hosting it and they ask viewers to log onto their website and give their opinion on all sorts of things. Mostly the focus is on how the news is presented and what kind of stories Fox veiwers like . I must be like their focus group or marketing research.

Any way the blonde says,~"You've told us that you love to watch car chases.....here is a "Classic car chase" and they some big fat guy with a well nurtured mullet get out of one car he had stolen and jump in a minivan and drive off with the owners jacket still caught in the door. It finally came lose.

"Love to watch car chases"? This is a self express like of their viewers? That is sad and oh I don't know but it is something.

After running the "classic car chase" she asked viewers to log on and tell them WHY they like car chases so much.

When I saw your subject line and had to laugh. You are right and they aren't afraid to admit it, I guess.
