They were on Fox, they weren’t on the news.

Fox don’t report the news, they report things that they feel should have happened if the world was just according to their values. You’d get more accurate reporting out of a 6-year-old when they’re telling you who ate all the chocolate.

Their values seem to be “willful ignorance and stupidity, zero class and zero dignity… a mindless free-for-all!”.

I read this headline yesterday and it made me think of a time when California Psychics had commercials all over the place. A few hours later, I saw a California Psychics commercial on prime time NBC. The world is getting dumberer by the minute.

Damn, I haven’t thought of those commercials in ages. What a throwback!

This is on the Jesse Waters show which is on the channel called Fox News. It should be noted that a majority of Fox News shows are actually talk shows and opinion segments, not straight news.

Rupie has done an excellent job convincing people on both sides that the entirety of Fox News’ airtime is to be considered news because it’s the name of the channel and it has a news ticker on the bottom

"I would like to see CNN evolve back to the kind of journalism that it started with, and actually have journalists, which would be unique and refreshing,” he said. Then he suggested a model: “Fox News, in my opinion, has followed an interesting trajectory of trying to have ‘news’ news, I mean some actual journalism, embedded in a program schedule of all opinions.”

I couldn’t find the original article in my history, but this segment had me infuriated… This chucklefuck looks to Fox news as a good model for them to replicate on CNN…

So much work. Just start a meme page and present “news” via memes. Bam, instant Facebook cancer. Shit like “it takes 21,000 gallons of diesel fuel to make and transport the lithium batteries in your testla charged by coal plants. My F350 commuter burns 3 gallons to get across town. Who is the pollute now?” [ignore the entire fuel refinery process and economy of scale] - follow Absolute Truefacts for more smoothbrain digestable content!

Network was a documentary. Remember that the “TV Generation” that they talk about in that movie are the Boomers.
