What Now For Fox News?
This question was asked the other day on the Daily Show. That being said, what will happen to fox news? I mean, they wave flags constantly and claim to support America. Now with Democrats leading the White House and both houses of Congress, will Fox continue the flag waving or will they become an attack dog and attack the sitting government.
To date, they have lied, lied, and lied again to keep the public from knowing the truth about many topics the bush admin told them were off limits. They have never reported anything that cast the sitting government in a bad light.
Now Obama is the sitting government, it makes you wonder what they will report...

I don't think Fox is that bad. O'Reilly, maybe, though.

You do realize that this is Capt. Sternn posting this...a guy who generally makes George W. Bush and Bill Clinton look like paragons of honesty and humility?

Damn you Sternn, I read the title and got excited that Rupert Murdoch was eaten by a giant bird or something like that.

Oh, if only. Truth be told, even if he had met an untimely demise someone else would just take his place. Neo-cons are like that. You strike one down, and two more rise to take its place.
