2. They get away with that because " REPUBLICANS OWN THE CHANNELS"

AND the news media, most newspapers and most radio stations.

6. Sex Scandal about the mayor--the media circus came to town

in Springfield. They were watching the TV Trucks arrive and hears comes Fox News, blaring "We are the Champions" on the loudspeaker with the words "Bush/Cheney" on the side of the truck.

10. There was another Fox slam on the Simpsons before

...but I don't have a clip.

It was a news segment...they had a Dem on and they superimposed devil horns over his head while the ticker on the bottom said something like "Breaking: Democrats Are Bad For Children" or something.

Gags like this make me glad I still tune in every once in a while after sixteen seasons.
