Fox News = I Pulled This Bit of Information Out of My Ass In Hopes More of You Will Tune In Channel.

"Margaret whatever happened to common sense? I eat a lot of pie. I have a fat ass. I get the connection. You hardly eat anything and walk everyday and a strong wind could blow you over. Again, I get the connection. So why is it so hard for Bill O’Reilly over at Fox News to understand the connection between what he says and how someone responds to what he says?

It’s just not that big of a leap to see a connection between the television news calling someone a Baby Killing Nazi over and over again and some religious fanatic deciding to finally pull the trigger. I get that it is not quite the same as the pie making my ass fat, but I don’t work for Jenny Craig. Bill O’Reilly, however, works for Fox News. The emphasis, of course, is on that last word – News. He should know better. He is paid to know better. He should be fired for not knowing better.

Fox isn’t called the Editorial Channel. Neither is it called the Opinion Channel. Last time I checked it wasn’t even called the I Pulled This Bit of Information Out of My Ass In Hopes More of You Will Tune In Channel. Although, I would push for that last one if Rupert Murdoch put it up for a a vote.

No. It’s called the Fox News Channel. So someone explain to me where exactly is the news or even the journalists. Anytime you try to pin someone down over at Fox for irresponsible journalism they claim that they are news commentators and not journalists. You’re on a news channel you moron so if you are going to be a commentator then you should be commenting on the news and not your misinformed opinion about the private medical decisions made between a woman and her doctor.."

I haven't visited their page in awhile, I think it's worth another visit.

That's news, right? And they're all over that Miss California thing, too. How can you say they don't have news? :shrug:

You can read posts, even here, from people anxious to de-link O'Reilly's words from subsequent actions, and crying about censorship if muttonheads like O'Reilly aren't allowed to incite their audience to violence. For the rest of us, the line seems bright and direct.
