Fox News has a sponsored group on facebook!?! Great...
I just checked that crap out. It's the first time I ever looked at a sponsored group. Basically the group's page is like a miniturized and simplified version of the Fox News homepage. On the side they had an ad with an animated simulated IM conversation between two students in which one said, "Prof. Reid (coincidence? I think not) went off on me again." Student two replies, "because you quoted Fox News again?" Student one replies "I gave both sides." Then all that disappears and is replaced by the Fox logo and the tagline "Fox News: The network your professors don't want you to see".

Yeah, the poor, marginalized conservatives :sarcasm: Nobody at U Toronto has joined their group yet. Ha ha.

3. None at Auburn University either
Makes no sense though, we're ranked as the most conservative public university in the country. Maybe they just don't market it enough.

4. Ill have to check my school facebook to see if Faux News is there
That add is pretty pathetic.

But, sad as it is, most conservatives are so arrogant that they actually envision themselves as intellectual, well-read, and fair minded.


Both sides?

HA!
