Whell (and anyone else) -

Watch the first 11 minutes of this before you point to anything by Fox as being remotely credible. This is absolute "must view" footage about the hypocrisy and dishonesty of a contrived issue they've been covering 24/7 for the past two days.

Don't miss this opportunity to see Fox's hypocrisy in a full display of its shamelessness.

Thanks Finn. Jon Stewart can say it about as well as it can be said.

I watched Papa Bear O'Reilly in full defense mode last night. He very selectively edited Stewart's piece to make it look like Stewart was unfairly picking on Fox (while they were busy doing God's work).

Sh*t like this is almost enough for me to look askance at the 1st Amendment and support the "Fairness Doctrine." OTOH, with enough ridicule piled upon these assh@les, their house of cards may fall as responsible sponsors bail (a la Glenn Beck).

Anyone soaking in information from Stewart or Beck and taking it as the truth
needs their head examined. I don't listen to either of those ass lickers. Then
you have people like Bono and Nugent spewing their twisted views of what
the world should be like. Not to mention all the hollywood actors thinking they
are better than the rest of us telling us how we should carry on all the while
padding their own pockets. Thanks but I will make my own decisions.

Jack,

I disagree with you about plenty, but I appreciate that you are author of
your own talking points.

I like Jon Stewart, but he is not the source of my news. I happen to
think that he is a pretty effective gadfly.

Regards,

D-Ray

Jon Stewart is a comic on the Comedy Channel who makes his living skewering people using their own words. I don't view his show for news, but FWIW his journalistic standards (and he's a comedian) far exceed the jackasses on Fox News, a supposed fair & balanced news channel.

It's a shame that virtually no one in the mainstream media (with the possible exception of Howard Kurtz of the WashPost) is willing to expose the lies, innuendo, and slurs slung on Fox News on a daily basis and we need to rely on a comedian to do so. At this task, he does a fine job IMHO.

+1. I happen to like Jon Stewart, I do find him funny. But, I have to agree with you on accepting anyones rhetoric as gospel.
