Fox News Takes A Page Out Of The Onion

If there are two "news sources" that I love and hate, they would be The Onion and Fox News. Both report a whole lot of bullshit and misinform gullible readers/viewers. The only difference is that Fox is trying to look professional while The Onion is just trying to make smart and snarky people laugh.

Take this example of "professionalism" and try it on for size. The Center for Media and Public Affairs recently released a study showing how the media has been denouncing Hillary, loving Obama....and that Fox News has the most balanced election coverage. Wait a sec, did I just have to write that? Did the sun reverse course last night?

Oh whew, no it is all good people. It turns out that this highly regarded George Mason institution is headed by none other than Dr. S. Lichter, who just happens to be a regular contributor to....you guessed it, Fox News.

Nice try Mr. Ailes, come again to the real no spin zone soon.
