11. So sick of GOP TV.

Indoctrinating propaganda machine with their condescending hatred for anything done by democrats. They cannot say one good thing about dems but claim to be fair and balanced. What a joke they are to the majority of the country but marvel at their own self importance as if they are something special because they are on TV's propaganda machine. In 70 yrs or so they too will be rotting corpses and completely forgotten but still think they are so special. Rock throwers with huge salaries catering to those who pay them.

15. It used to bother me too. Now I just REFUSE to watch it. Click--gone.

So much easier now, too--I can actually go into a military base and go sit and have a sandwich in the food court and not be bombarded with Faux, now that Porgie is out of the picture. Now it's CNN, which is a slight but noticeable improvement. At least it's not all legs and bosoms and red lipstick and come-hither looks and newsreaders who can barely pronounce the hate-filled copy they are trying to read.

[Voice for Peace]

12. lolol

makes my hair hurt.

[Politicalboi]

3. And their headline

Hard to prepare for lies.

Shouldn't that read, Hard to prepare with lies.

[BlueStreak]

8. Actually it is not hard to prepare for lies. Simply know and speak the truth.

It is only hard to prepare for lies when they are coming out of one's mouth faster than one's brain can process them.

4. Romney has lost the media

when Chris Wallace can't carry your water anymore, its fuckin over!!!!!!!!

[BlueStreak]

9. Romney disappears after November. Wallace has a career to manage.

And he has positioned himself as the most honest person at Faux. Granted, that is like claiming to be the tallest midget, but it is a brand he's working. And he has shown enough responsibility to be attractive to another network.

That raises an interesting tangent. Is there anybody else on that entire network who could get a significant job on any of the respectable networks? None comes to mind. Maybe Van Sustern could have a bit part somewhere, but I can't see any of the others working anywhere else. Maybe Shep Smith. O'Reilly could probably get something somewhere because he presumably could bring part of his audience with him. The others are just lackeys.

[MADem]

16. Van Sustern was -- once upon a time -- a tired looking professor who served as a consultant to CNN.

She gained her fame during the OJ business and CNN took her on full time on one of their legal shows.

She wanted more cash so she jumped to Faux for more money and an entree-face lift which left her unrecognizable for a time. Eventually her face settled back in and she looked more like herself only less tired. She is married to a creepy rightwing lawyer who is ethically challenged, to put it politely.

She's a Scientologist. Gotta wonder about that, I must say. I think choosing to associate with that organization doesn't speak well to one's grasp on reality, frankly. They have a very bad reputation that has been verified by former adherents to the cult.

18. "She's a Scientologist...I think choosing to associate with...speak well to one's grasp of reality."

To me, that includes any religion/superstition and/or cultural myth there is!

[BlueStreak]

19. So Van Sustern probably has no prospects.

Other than Wallace and O'Reilly, who on Faux could move to a good job on another network?

[Katashi_itto]

22. Most of the women on Fox might make 3rd Tier porn stars.

Or anchor jobs in Oklahoma, given the choice they likely would take the porn jobs.

[BlueStreak]

23. It is a lot closer to what they do with Faux

They already know how to whore. If that took that anchor job in Oklahoma, they'd have to learn something about journalism.

[Katashi_itto]

24. Good Point!

[mitchtv]

25. I suppose you are right, but Scientology brings

a new science fiction, interplanetary twist to the thousand year old fiction,Mormonism too which leaves both open for scrutiny

[EC]

7. I wonder if Chris Wallace is looking at another offer?

I don't know when his contract comes up, but maybe he's actually trying to do actual reporting.

[Jack Sprat]

13. Can't you bloody people see???

They are enraged. Gretchen is enraged that Romney held a press conference on the 'memo' and then had to be questioned by the press. The very idea that Romney couldn't choreograph his press conference and the appropriate questions to ask him is an abomination to Fox & Friendlies.

AND THE VERY FACT THAT ONE OF THEIR OWN WOULD NOT TAKE UP FOR ROMNEY IS GHASTLY.

[Jack Sprat]

14. Wallace was far too reserved.

Of course, he was outside the studio. Were he there in the room with them, I would have leapt across that round table and started eating her face, jawbone, teeth mandible, tissues bones until there was very little.
Then I would have immediately ate the faces of the other two Fox stooges, so that there would have been no reason to ever allow them back even after repeated sessions of plastic surgaries.

[roscoeroscoe]

17. yikes!

temper, temper...

[stlsaxman]

20. I dunno... I think Chris let Li'l Piglet off easy this time.

[COLGATE4]

21. Well, "Brain" has no problem

with it, so there. You can't make this stuff up.
