Fox News shouldn't be taken seriously

     If you are a dedicated pagan you were probably upset with  the recent rant about wiccans on Fox news.  And I have to  admit I  was a little ticked off myself.  So  I  did  my standard research, and I  came to  a rather different conclusion as many  other have. Fox news is to be looked at as a source of poor humor and nothing else.

    If a famous comedian was to  make a comment about all of  pagan holidays , which  there isn't that  many. and  said something to  the effect that he needed a few more days off during  the summer, most of us would have laughed with him. Why because he was saying this with an intent of humor.   So  why  are so many  so  ticked off.. because it is fox news. 

     Fox news, has this history of making outrageous comments that  offend people in some way  or another. They  have commented about presidents, senators,  liberal  activists, and anyone else that  liberals and moderates can associate with.  I  know of a TV program that  does something like that  on a weekly basis, Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update. The Only difference is that  fox news never ends, it  is 24 hours a day  of non-stop show with poor comments meant to  entertain certain people.

    As I  said I  did  my research, if you go online and research the fox news written report on the University of Missouri  Religious Holiday article.  It is accurate, they  mention that  Wicca has 8  sabbats, not the 20  that  the anchors mentioned.  So  this would have to  mean that  Live action fox news is not reading and researching fox news articles. They  are being told to  ab lib the news and add a conservative christian twist to  the news.  They  are there just to  entertain the conservative christians  not actually deliver the news.

     I  remember  a few months ago an article that  stated people that  don't watch  news programs were better informed than people that watch  fox news. SO  this  should tell  you again that  fox news is a 24 hour a day conservative christian version of SNL's Weekend Update.  Something that  we should never take serious.  Don't get angry at them, laugh  at them. Fox news if taken serious is the worst source of information on current events.

     So  why  would Fox news hire such  buffoons to  be on TV if they  are trying to  be a form of entertainment?  They  are following the Will  Ferrel model, someone that is a terrible actor and comedian.   Look  at  the movie "Night at  the Roxbury" or "Elf"  . Will  Ferrel's comedy is poor, he usually plays a stupid bore that  only entertains by  saying or doing something stupid.   Something stupid is a way  to  describe the  Fox News TV personalities.  Will Ferrel  has had limited success in movies, and thankfully nothing that has ever created a sequel. They  must be looking for the bottom half  of the journalists that  graduate from christian colleges to  be part of their network.

    I  would defend my  opinion with  Bill O'Reilly.  We have all seen Bill O'Reilly get mad and have yelling fits about  anything.  Bill O'Reilly is the Angry Comedian, going on his rants about stupid topics to entertain others.  Bill O'Reilly is Fox News Answer to George Carlin.  George Carlin had style, character, and a good punchline. George Carlin was better because he used facts in his rants, which  goes against the Bill  O'Reilly 'No  Spin Zone' mentality.

     What  do  comedians do  when they  get successful? They  go on tour, traveling from city to  city  telling as many  people as possible their comedy routine.  And Fox news did  they  same exact thing. Do  you Remember Sarah  Palin's bus tour across America? What  did  she talk  about ..... the constitution, something she has never read.  And didn't we all have a good laugh at  everything that  she got wrong.  Fox news was there to  cover every little bit of it.

      Look  at the special  guests that  Fox News has on every week, these are just like the SNL special  guests. They  are meant to  keep the ratings up  and join in on the conservative christian ramblings meant to  entertain people that  don't  use empathy  and intuition.   Mike Huckebee,  Karl Rove, and Ann Coulter deliver such  outrageous comments to  get ratings. It  would be too  boring if they  deliver facts, so  they  are going to  lie.  It is entertainment.

     And then watch  the ladies of Fox News,  they  are all  skinny little toothpicks  wearing miniskirts. And if you go online you can See images of these ladies is some skimpy clothing. When they  are sitting down on those extra wide chairs,  you can see the ladies butt.   You  know they  were hired because of their looks and not their brains. Again to  target the guys out there that  think with  the wrong head.  They will  agree with  anything  coming  from a tall  slender blond in a mini-skirt. And why  do  they  do  this? Because they  are in the entertainment business not the news business. Lets face it, Tina Fey is a beautiful woman and they  have to  compete against her.

     So  what  would make Fox news better? Better script writers was my  first idea. I have also thought that  maybe just maybe someone  should put the bible down  for a couple of hours and actually read the news from a secular view point. 

     Next time those buffoons from "False News"  say  something stupid, don't get mad, laugh  at them. Tell  them that  you found the discussed topic funny and full of silly mistakes. Then tell  then the facts that  they  got wrong.  Ask  them when there comedy  routine is going to  be in your city, and that  you want tickets.  Don't give them your energy,  take their energy by  making them look as silly as they  are.

  2. I also agree, don't take Faux Newz as something serious. Might as well take the Onion seriously.
