I Smell A Rat At Fox News /

If you’re an avid watcher of Fox News and it seems like everything in the world is going unquestionably wrong, it’s probably because you’re an avid watcher of Fox News. For years I have questioned the validity of Fox’s news network (rightfully so).  Fox knew that they had failed after the 2008 presidential election because their biggest threat was (and still is) a Democratic president. During the elections, there were outrageous lies asserted about then-candidate Barack Obama (you remember: socialist, black supremacist, alien from outer space …). Consequently, those lies all came from this man—a former Washington Times reporter turned vice president of Fox News, Bill Sammon. Sammon recently exposed his lies by saying that he only pretended to believe those nasty things he said about the Obamas, calling the lies “rather farfetched … mischievous speculation.”
Did I miss something? Shouldn’t one feel comfortable turning on the news, feeling confident that the information they’re getting is factual and not fabricated. Well, my friends, Fox News has made such a privilege, a rare commodity, considering the millions of folks that tune in every day-- tricked to believe that they’re watching “real” news. Silly rabbits … Fox News is, and always will be a Republican machine. Find a new network!

Fox News Gets A Little Less Looney /

So, for the latest news out of looneyville—Glenn Beck has officially been fired from the third highest rated show on Fox NewsThe Glenn Beck Show. According to the official press release that was disseminated late yesterday, the chairman and CEO of Fox had this to say about Beck:
“Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards.  I look forward to continuing to work with him.”
Continuing to work with him … right … code for: Get your sh** and get out!
Word on the street is, Glenn Beck was fired because of his lack of sponsorship, you know, the advertising money was stagnant—non-existent. I mean really, what business would want their commercial airing during a program that rails about how the world is coming to an end? Regardless of Beck’s ratings, if the world was truly coming to an end, then that would make their product a lot LESS valuable. Wouldn't it?  
Beck’s contract with Fox News is expected to expire later this year. Are you a Beck fan? You can't be. Because you're here!
