They said the word "evolution".
This obviously wasn't posted by Fox News.
They would have used a word like "ascendance". Or "glory". Or "Jesusness".

Good luck with that, guys. The total amount of fair and balanced coverage from your channel so far is:
...
About 10 minutes.
Wow, they're really arrogant, huh?

Do you ever wonder if we fell into the Twilight Zone? Maybe in a alternate universe Fox News doesn't exist.

We could only hope that there is a universe fortunate enough for such luck. We got stiffed, though.

Haha oh wow
Fair and balanced

What a bloody fucking joke.
I think it's fucking hilarious that Fox News isn't even registered as a news broadcaster.
[QUOTE=Chickens!;32680170]I think it's fucking hilarious that Fox News isn't even registered as a news broadcaster.[/QUOTE]
The news they report is less truthful than The Onion.
They're not even legally obliged to report news fairly since they registered as an entertainment broadcaster.

Wait, what?
[QUOTE=kimr120;32680264]Wait, what?[/QUOTE]
I recall reading here on FP that they registered as entertainment providers to avoid having to provide unbiased news.
I don't remember who it was but they seemed to know a lot about it.
Haha,oh god

As I understand that's more or less irrelevant because Fox proved in court a while ago that any broadcaster [URL="http://www.ceasespin.org/ceasespin_blog/ceasespin_blogger_files/fox_news_gets_okay_to_misinform_public.html"]has a right to lie based on the First Amendment.[/URL] But yeah, they've got no requirement to tell the truth.

Oh come on. I don't think the ads count as part of Fair and Balanced coverage.

Perhaps, and hear me out this is gonna sound crazy, you should watch Fox before blindly bashing it. I mean more than 10 minutes worth.
The 'Fair and Balanced' comes from them having both a democrat and republican share their views, then 'You Decide.'
Reading the comments.

That's the justification for the fair and balanced slogan, but the way they report news is hardly fair or balanced.

While they cut off the Democrat whenever he starts to make a point.
Those comments on the site hurt my IQ
[QUOTE=Disgruntled;32683131]While they cut off the Democrat whenever he starts to make a point.[/QUOTE]
No. They don't. They often times give them the last word.
The day FOX news goes off air forever, and gets replaced with something that is actually reliable and good. I'll celebrate.
It would certainly be a milestone in human progress.
