Wherein I Raise My Eyebrows and say, 'Hold on a second.'

[bleever]

Sure, I always knew that Fox would eventually jump the shark. But never in my wildest dreams did I think that I'd get to witness the sight of Rupert Murdoch himself putting on the water-skiing outfit and grab the tow-bar, pumped up with the notion that he would save the entire enterprise by an act of bravado, and do the actual jumping in person.

But then I saw this:

He said: "If you can't sit there and answer a question from a professional, mild-mannered, respectful reporter like Chris Wallace, then the hatred for journalists is showing. All journalists need to raise their eyebrows and say, 'hold on a second.'"

Methinks the lady doth protest too much. As a great lady who might lean back on the divan, fanning herself in frantic victimhood, against the shameless facts, paraded in all their nakedness.

Thus I raise my eyebrows and say, 'Hold on a second...why is Rupert Murdoch wearing water skis?'

1. Great post

These troglodytes at Fox will regret this interview for years to come.

2. I thought it was Ailes who said that. (???)

On edit: Yep. "Fox News chief Roger Ailes"

5. You are correct, of course. And Ailes in a water-skiing outfit

is perhaps an even more appalling sight.

Thanks!
