We need to start a thread about do you actually watch Fox News? If no one on this board watches that shit, then we can officially end further threads about how they suck. It's rehashing the same shit.

I was just thinking this

I mean, if you take all your news from any single source you're a bit blind, aren't you? Fox is designed for entertainment - read = shock/awe TV. I think we all know that.

I get my news from a variety of sources. Everyone has different talking heads. I do watch Fox. I also watch MSNBC and CNN. I don't agree with everything that any of them say. I make my own decsions based on the total of the news I take in.

I'd much rather watch Glenn Beck cry, or Bill O'Reilly berate someone who won't actually take a stance on a subject, than to watch Chris Matthews talk about what a warm tingly feeling he gets in his leg from listening to the President speak. C'mon already. The President isn't a speaker, at least not a good one. If he didn't have a teleprompter, he'd be up a creek.

thats funny...when
I did it, it was one reference to a Palin photoshop incident. The rest of em were either Fox news incidents or forums claiming they all do it while pointing back to the MSNBC Palin photoshop incident.

There was one link that backed up the claim "they all do it" by saying there were a bunch of hits on a search for MSNBC wrong footage. all the hits seem to be the same Palin photoshop incident.

I aint searching any deeper.
It's not worth my time.

Than why is it worth the time to go "ha ha, look at them they show wrong footage?" When none of us give a shit? It's not news, it's like laughing at TMZ.

Who are you talking bout...
I wasn't pulling a "ha ha, look at them they show wrong footage"

I was pulling a "ha ha, look at them make the same old 'they all do it statement' "

Then YOU come along and pull a "Google it motherfucker" and out of decency I went along with it. SO I googled like you said.

Guess what mutherfucker....your advice sucked because all it turned up was a circle jerk of forum fags saying "they all do it".

All I wanted to do in this thread is to call "Man named Tracy" a buffoon and now you got me on a damn scavenger hunt.

Fuck you and anyone who looks like you

Is that the best you got?

I've had this name for a while now. I've listened to people butcher it, make fun of me, say I had a girl's name, you name it I've heard it. It usually comes around double as my sister's name rhymes with mine.

You're going to have to do better than calling "Man named Tracy" a buffoon. Really now...that doesn't even get a rise out of me.

I know you can do better than that..
