"FOX has figured out that by simply putting a question mark at the end of something, you can say fucking anything!"

I have a growing urge to writing a report on the horrible lies and bias of FOX News so I can hand it over to the school district chairman who selected FOX as the channel to be on the televison and tell him "if you don't change that goddamn channel to something less fucked-up, I will make this a problem for you".

I've been doing some casual reading on FOX News' history and I am not happy with what editorials and (in particular) the Wiki has told me.

I don't watch tv, and I definitely don't watch it for news. I get most of what's going around in the world from Common Ground's emails, and from the various alerts from NOW, Amnesty International and other sources, as well as my LJ flist. Yes, there's a liberal bias to my news sources, but considering the horrifying conservative bias of the usual "news" sources, this is to my advantage and covers things that the average American doesn't hear about until it's far too late.

The world is one screwed up place. Fox isn't going to be reporting on it anytime soon.

I reccommend Daily Report to everyone. See the link in my post for reasoning. But I respect your decision to... not watch.

Ok, I clicked Stephen over Jon, and I feel bad about it. Truth is, my love for BOTH of them runs so deeply it can't be quantified.

Hee, I did that on purpose. I choose Stephen too, purely superfically. He is a hot, sexy bastard.

And, yes, the Daily Report love is starting to run deep... I'm talking heart-hurtingly large amounts of love. Like... David Hewlett + Joss + Sorkin = my Jon-Stephen love.

And that? Is a lot of love.

A-friggin-men, sister.

Honestly, since I've been ending my day with The Daily Show/The Colbert Report/Countdown? My insomnia, believe it or not, is completely gone.

See that, kids? The Jon-Stephen-Keith triple shot ain't just entertainment. It's a powerful holistic solution.

Wait, Keith is on right now/7:00 PM. When the hell are you watching him? *frets*

And when is Cooper on? I'm getting into the routine of watching Olbermann and I'm thinking I've got things balanced enough I could throw another hot newsman in the mix.

And I'm finding Cooper really smoking hotvaguely attractive. He looks so young, but he's all silver! WTF?

Heh. Here, at least, Countdown gets reshown at midnight.

Anderson Cooper 360ยบ is on CNN Monday-Friday at 10pm here on the East Coast. I ... fully endorse throwing him into the mix. He goes well with, you know, other dudes who don't lie on a nightly basis.

Oh, maybe they do that here too. *hopes so*

*will have to figure out a way to work him in*

So, wait, how old is he? *blinky* Cause he's completely grey!

He turned 39 this year, but ...

Cooper started getting gray hair around age 20, and was completely gray by age 35. In his Details column in August 2003, he stated, "Going gray is like ejaculation. You know it can happen prematurely, but when it actually does, it's a total shock."
