How can FOX afford to run play the business-as-usual card and simply gloss over Kennedy's death?

[LLStarks]

Is Roger Ailes feigning ignorance again?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. Because it's Fox. Typical Fox douchebaggery.

I wouldn't expect them to do anything else.

[tekisui]

2. They have a loyal audience of dumbass sheep.

They have had years of not getting news, they are used to it and prefer it that way.

[Johonny]

16. Yeah

I imagine if you watch FAUX you aren't interested in that kind of news anyways.

[Junkdrawer]

3. Give them a day or two...It'll be non-stop Chappaquiddick n/t

[Generator]

4. Because they are evil unashamed propagandists

I guess you missed that bit.

[virgogal]

5. To give an alternative to the barrage of news coverage on EMK's death.

Some people are just not that interested and that's just the way it is.

[brettdale]

6. Its faux news

They will continue to sink lower and lower after each day passes.

Just wait till 9/12.

You anit seen nothing yet.

7. Actually, starting with late last

night they've had quite a bit on Kennedy.

[ddeclue]

8. XM Radio Channel POTUS called bullshit on Fox for ignoring Kennedy's death.

I'm loving Channel 110 on my XM more and more!

:D

[Raine]

9. Because their IGNORANT viewers

are just fine with it, heaven forbid they should be informed on anything in the outside world. x(

[ddeclue]

10. It's the Republican Matrix..

Any questions?

[avaistheone1]

11. The IQ of the Faux News viewers is pretty low, along with their emotional quotient.

[Mr. Sparkle]

12. Their Evil !

When they tried to sell the Iraq war to Americans, covering up the atrocities that go with war ... that was a bit of clue.

[Jennicut]

13. Billo had Geraldo of all people on as his Kennedy expert

Its just pathetic, but its Faux after all.

[Libertas1776]

14. Meanwhile,

if it was Ray-gun they would be throwing themselves on funeral pyres on live television. What else is new?

[spanone]

15. because that's what they do.

[Old and In the Way]

17. They've demonized Ted Kennedy for decades as the #1 Evil Democrat.

It would be dangerous for the mental health of the typical Fox viewer to run any programming eulogizing him and it would be equally problematic for them to do a death celebration. So, the only thing they can really do is ignore it. Like I do with Fox.

[RagAss]

18. What's FOX ?
