Wading into a crowd of protesters screaming, "does anyone here believe in Freedom?" is a sure way to give FOX viewers the kind of "leftist" excitement they crave.

2. Proud of the protesters
for not hanging the fox propagandists from a light pole.

33. Can't seem to get it that Fox is not important or even relative.

23. He looks about 16.
And you can tell, he'd love nothing more than to start a fracas and then he could blame it on the "leftists" (as the marchers were described on the caption on Fox "news").

30. Of course Denver's Law Enforcement is only there to protect Fux News from the demonstators
not the demonstrators from Fux News. If Denver's Law enforcements wants to make points haul off the Fux News clown.

4. That was pretty hilarious
Faux doesn't even realize that they are the butt of the joke.

"recreating 68".... nice try but that's an epic fail.

5. That "reporter" is ludicrous.
What I find so funny about Fox reporters is their narcissism. If anybody doesn't want to talk to them, they think that it is an attack on the constitution. This from the same people who defend the administration's attacks on the constitution every single day!

Free speech does not mean you have to answer faux news's questions.

7. To the protesters in Denver, the best way to mess with Fox is to mention
Edited on Sun Aug-24-08 03:01 PM by lob1
Keith Olbermann's name. They won't use the tape if Keith's mentioned. They won't say Keith's name at Fox. If you're being harassed by a Fox news (ha) reporter, using Keith's name is a get out of jail free card.

stupid typo

The protestors were shouting "Fuck Fox News."
Maybe she thought they were chanting "Love blond boobs"

to free speech and no one wanted to waste their time on him.

This is exactly what every Democrat needs to do.

IF you see a FAUX logo just say "Fuck you RW tool".
OR as the marchers said "Fuck FAUX Snews".

And walk away. They are not worth your breath.

Onto the ash bin of history with them

"Fuck Fox News"

My kid was watching the computer over my shoulder, he will never be the same. His childhood innocents stolen from him

Should be worth a few 100 thousand

on edit -

At least enough to put him through college so he can become a REAL journalist

22. What should have been said
The smart thing to do would have been to say, "Yes I do believe in free speech, unlike McCain and his aide, that lied to a small elderly woman and said that the Secret Service ordered that she had to leave or she would be arrested for trespassing because she had a sign that said McCain=Bush." That would have shut him up.

24. The reporter is an idiot
Freedom of speech and the press doesn't require you to answer the question or talk to Faux News.

Where did he go to school? This was just real stupid.

26. Well, it was funny, but the brainwashed Fake Viewers won't get it
they don't get irony
they don't get satire
they don't get youthful irreverence

The reporter was in danger? :rofl:

Too bad the anchor can't say "sanctimonious" and the reporter can't say - well, much of anything, really.

What kind of Faux News reporter goes into the middle of a march like that?!? What a freakin moron. He got what he deserved.


Griff Jenkins sounds like a part-time weekend weatherman for a low budget news cast.

39. Fortunately,
he didn't get what he truly deserved because Fox would never shut up about it. That was nice all the same and it would be great if Fox continues to make itself irrelevant.

31. I think his neatly greased hair and black-rimmed spectacles were a nice touch.
All he needed was a pocket protector with some pencils in his blue short-sleeved shirt to complete the "bullied nerd" look.

Of course he claims he "got roughed up a bit earlier", off camera. He needs to try to appear more dishevelled, though. That wasn't dramatic enough. He needs his hair messed up and his glasses skewed a bit to sell this "harassed and roughed up, poor, innocent reporter" storyline. I bet he'll be on camera later with precisely that look, resulting from more conveniently undocumented violence.

I hope someone with a good cellphone videocam catches him messing up his own hair and glasses.

It sure looked to me like people were doing their very best to ignore him and walk around him.

47. Wonder if they had Dan Rather's 1968 DNC visit in mind
Dan Rather got roughed up by DNC security in '68:

If Fox had worked a little harder orchestrating their drama they could have made some solemn point about role reversal or something.
