Is Rupert Murdoch a Catholic? It's been wall to wall on Fox every time
I turn it on (admittedly not often). I'm surprised they haven't devised
some way to cover his visits to the bathroom. (Does the Pope sh*t in the
woods?).
Worse yet is the fawning tone of the coverage. One studio anchor
commented to a stringer about 'how lucky' she was to actually get cover
todays events directly...and how she wished she could be there.
Yeah, I know. I could just turn it off; but you know--train wrecks and
all that....
That said, I wonder if this could work against Faux's market share? I
mean Catholics are not among the favorite subjects of some of their
demographic.

You seem to be more excited about my comment than I, Master Kent. I
presented a conundrum. You've turned it into something...else. What,
I'm not sure, but you seem pretty worked up about it.

Pot, kettle, black ...
It wasn't me who wrote the original diatribe. It wasn't me
who declared "Faux News" and "Fair and Balanced". It wasn't
me who went channel hopping to prove a silly point.
