[quote][B]Joan Rivers[/B] was slashed from the [B]FOX & Friends[/B] schedule Thursday and banned from future appearances on the show for criticizing [URL="http://www.examiner.com/howard-stern-in-national/howard-stern-calls-sarah-palin-c-word-response-to-az-shootings-video"][B]Sarah Palin[/B][/URL] during a pre-interview conversation. Rivers talked about the betrayal by her "FOX & Former Friends" on Thursday morning's Howard Stern Show. The plastic surgery icon says that she was asked about Sarah Palin during her pre-interview on Wednesday, and told later that night that her Thursday appearance was cancelled and that she had been placed on the "no future appearances" list.[INDENT]"Someone asked me about Sarah Palin and I did my usual little Sarah Palin joke...Apparently, I said she was an idiot and that she’s partially responsible for what happened in Arizona...and I don’t think she has the right to make that her tragedy." [/INDENT]Rivers' agent received a phone call a few hours later that the comedienne was now persona non grada on orders from the highest authority:[INDENT]"Because of what Joan said about Sarah Palin," a terrified producer told Rivers' agent on the condition of anonymity. "It's not me. It's coming from upstairs." [/INDENT]Joan Rivers and her daughter Melissa were scheduled to promote their new reality series [I]Joan and Melissa: Joan Knows Best? [/I]on [I]FOX & Friends[/I] January 20th. Rivers exposed the Fox censorship scandal via her [URL="http://www.twitter.com/joan_rivers"][B]Twitter[/B][/URL] account Wednesday.[INDENT]"We put it out immediately on the Twitter and suddenly Fox calls: 'we never said that'.

Joan is awesome, and Fox sucks. Take a joke.

:foxnews: Joan Rivers is the New Anti-Christ. More at 11. :foxnews:

Fair and balanced!

fox and friends are such a bunch of tight assed middle aged god fearing trailer trash douches

Seems reasonable and fair. Edit: Loving them boxes from people believing I'm serious.

I can't even imagine why someone would want to show up on any of their programs anyway!

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;27572079]Why does everyone hate Fox so much? Is Facepunch full of liberals?[/QUOTE] Glaber get off your alt.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;27572079]Why does everyone hate Fox so much? Is Facepunch full of liberals?[/QUOTE] Yeah it is.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;27572079]Why does everyone hate Fox so much? Is Facepunch full of liberals?[/QUOTE] Because Fox is unbelievably biased and hypocritical. They say they're fair and balanced, yet they don't even try to act that way. Lies, hypocrisy, bias. Fox is news like UFO Hunters is History. [sp]I couldn't think of a better analogy[/sp]

Wow. We don't like what you say so you're off the show! How unbiased.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;27572079]Why does everyone hate Fox so much? Is Facepunch full of liberals?[/QUOTE] does one really need to be a liberal to not like fox news

What more do you guys want to show that Fox News has a conservative Bias?

She's just banned from that specific talk show program guys.

Banning people from voicing their opinions on air... Hmmm... [img]http://www.opposingviews.com/attachments/0011/3086/North-Korea-flag.jpg?1291154780[/img]

... why did they have to overtly [i]ban[/i] her? It's not like she's going to force her way onto the show of her own accord. It'd make more sense to just, you know, not invite her back on. By banning her and then making a news article out of it all they've done is attract more negative attention to their retarded ways.

And this is why I don't watch Fox.

She's probably telling half the story to make herself sound more like a victim. Also she isn't banned from fox news, she's banned from a talk show on the network. We all know that fox news isn't very popular on facepunch but that doesn't mean you need to sensationalize this just to get more "lolol fox sucks" posts.

[QUOTE=Xen Tricks;27572144]No, just rational people.[/QUOTE] Might as well have just said yes

[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;27574355]I'm not defending Fox here but I would hardly call a bunch of hormone crazed teenage basement dwellers rational people.[/QUOTE] Yeah it's a bit of an overstatement, but hey, you're the AGW denier here.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;27572079]Why does everyone hate Fox so much? Is Facepunch full of liberals?[/QUOTE] If that's what you want to call them, yes.
