If you get sick of it just turn it over to MSNBC.
You won't find a more loathesome set of characters
on TV, unless you watch American Idol

He said "more," not just "divisive, political grandstanding." I agree with both you and Carrie that Fox isn't the only breeding ground for polarized rhetoric, and I don't think it's fair to jump to the conclusion that Louie doesn't. PS, are you sure you're not David trolling?

Nicely put my friend.

As Fox's News vice president stated, much of their programming is "opiniontainment." Palin will totally fit into that!

On this topic, I love this clip from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart!

For Fox Sake!
Fox News defends itself against an attack by the Obama administration by explaining that most of their shows aren't real news.
