Faux News NOT covering Libby case.
I have had Fox on for 2 hours and they have yet to mention a single word about the biggest story in Washington DC.

Kidnapping victims, Lance Armstrong's trainer, the SOTU address, Iraq, another kidmapping victim, etc.

Not even trying to spin it - I guess it's just to hot to handle...

1. No big surprise
But how can you stomach two hours of fox "news"? You are stronger than I am.

10. The TV is muted....
Simply, the only way I can deal with Faux is to keep the sound OFF!

But I was curious as to how they would approach the subject. They obviously believe that the Devlin cas is much more important for the Murkin public.

2. Big surprise
now if Libby were missing, Greta von Hammerslammer, or whatever her name is, would be all over that one

3. We don't call them Faux News for nothing,
they are just upholding their journalistic tradition of telling the American People what Murdoch believes they should know.

4. Fox don't bite the hand that feeds It.
Loyalists forever, they will never betray the BFEE.

don't have computers. Just look at my grandpa. I love the man dearly, but he is all about faux news. He can't see for shit and has no computer.

I really wonder how many of faux viewers have computers and internet access compared to the other 24 hour news networks.
