Kermit and Miss Piggy Strike back at Fox News...

Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy hit back at Fox News during a UK press conference following the London Premiere of their new film. Fox had publically criticized the film for supposedly pushing a 'dangerous liberal agenda' at kids.

Kermit mocks their blatant and pointless fear mongering before Miss Piggy offers her own opinion on Fox News.

THEY should be the only ones given the opportunity to brainwash kids! Them and, of course, the CHURCH.

Who cares about the planet, anyway? There's plenty more we can destroy!

Pulitzer for that guy.

BTW, great advertising for the movie, actually makes me want to see it. The evil oil muppet is Tex Richman? Awesome.

The first 15 or 20 minutes are slow and lame. For some odd reason someone thought a few "human" musical numbers would be a good idea. They weren't. Especially the "Tex Richman" Rap number... ugh. However when the Muppets are on the scene it's a total throwback to the old "Muppet Show". I loved it. So did my kids...
