The really sad part about this is that while you and I see it as comical, there are literally millions of people that watch fox news and take it as fact. No one news source is perfect, but fox has time and time again been shown to be clearly just making shit up or starting/stopping sound bites to change their meaning. It is really scary to think these sheeple have power in our elections.
While we are on the topic, I think you might enjoy this video about the tea-party movement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnUfPQVOqpw
I totally agree, Mike. I actually had that same conversation just hours after posting this. It is so frustrating that Fox "news" can claim it is entertainment but still call itself news. Similar to how some people just refer to themselves as "Dr." without any experience in the field (medical or academic) to which they are claiming expertise.
