news.

Fox News is not a news bureau. It is bought and paid for by the
greediest among us, the bigots, the racists and the religious
right.... the coalition that controls the Republican Party. Fox News
is a propaganda network in it's purest sense.

What's Faux News", never seen it there...

Ah, you mean FOX news... I see...

Well, to be accurate:

http://wapedia.mobi/en/Fox_News_Channel

In May 1985, Australian publisher Rupert Murdoch announced that he and
American industrialist and philanthropist Marvin Davis intend to develop
"a network of independent stations as a fourth marketing force" to
compete directly with CBS, NBC and ABC through the purchase of six
television stations then owned by Metromedia. [10] In July 1985, 20th
Century Fox announced that publisher Rupert Murdoch had completed his
purchase of 50 percent of Fox Filmed Entertainment, the parent company
of 20th Century Fox Film Corporation. [11] A year later, Twentieth
Century Fox Film Corp. earned $5.6 million in its fiscal third period
ended May 31, 1986, in contrast to a loss of $55.8 million in the
year-earlier period. [12]

Prior to founding FNC, Murdoch had gained significant experience in the
24-hour news business when News Corp.'s BSkyB subsidiary started
Europe's first 24-hour news channel, Sky News, in the United Kingdom in
1989. [13] With the success of his fourth network efforts in the United
States, [14] [15] experience gained from Sky News, and turnaround of
20th Century Fox, Murdoch announced on January 31, 1996 that News Corp.
would be launching a 24-hour news channel to air on both cable and
satellite systems as part of a News Corp. "worldwide platform" for Fox
programming, reasoning that "The appetite for news � particularly news
that explains to people how it affects them � is expanding enormously." [16]

As opposed to the left-leaning MSM who regularly shill out for the DNC?!?!?

Who can forget Brian Matthews summer-long Obama Nightly News commercial.

Or Chris Matthews' "tingle" .

Sod off, libitard, you're scum.

What you're seeing is a flurry of press releases - not news articles.
Where you go wrong is in being too stupid to to tell the difference between
the news, and the commercials.
Once you do that, if you CAN do that, you'll find yourself much less
confused by what happens around you.

So, how does one go about vivisecting a fictional character? Any why
bother packing the remains in salt?

More to the point, why bother? I, for one, don't particularly want to
have to wash off fictional blood, especially considering the problems
that Lady Macbeth and King Verence (different genre) had.

(:-)s for the humor-impaired.

With layers of allegorical derision and a tincture of irony!

Preservative archival fealty.

Why ask why?

Well, now folks let me introduce Jamir!

4364 message across 95 groups.

A quick sampling shows us that his
level of discourse trends to what
you've seen here.

Welcome to mn.general, Jamir

When hoisted by his own petard, would
that be Jamir-on-a-stick?
