Fox News ridicules Howard Dean regarding his dead brother.
Just now, Liz Trotta of the Washington Times was interviewed on Fox News about Howard Dean.

Liz Trotta said, "Last week he found his brother, this week he found Jesus, what will he do next?"

Trotta also said Dean "left his religon over a bike-path."

Going to a different church because you don't like somthing your previous church did isn't leaving your religon.

1. The entire Dean family probably felt a great deal of relief
when his brother's body was discovered. They probably shed more tears, as they finally found closure. Leave it to FAUX to riducule a funeral.

On my cable, Fox News is the channel after CNBC and before CNN, so I have to watch it as I go between channels.

8. I use my VCR as a tuner, and I have blocked out FAUX
so that I don't accidentally scroll through it. If I go there it's on purpose, and I am prepared for the BS.

9. When warmed up and geared up, I start with
Washington Journal. Then when I feel strong enough, I turn on Fox. If I see the court jesters who were once trained to be journalists, but who got better money to become stupid joke tellers throwing assinine digs at Dems and delivering adoring compliments to the enthroned one - then I know that there are probably only the normal number of deaths, suicides, and lost limbs and minds in Iraq and that no towers have come down. Then I go back to Washington Journal to hear the usual with the hope that I will discover a new liberal and/or rational and/or gutsy spokesperson that I didn't know about before or to get educated for better or for worse by an expert or a propagandist.

Fox and all the 'shows' are good for studying the art and psychology of delivering propaganda. Have you ever thought about making friends with a Russian and former resident of the USSR to help you see the way they tolerated their 'news media' and retained sanity? I'll bet some of their jokes about their media would work for us.
