Ailes: NPR 'Nazi's,' Jon Stewart 'crazy'
(CNN) – Another day brings another round of fun quotes from Roger Ailes, the chairman of Fox News.

Yesterday, in part one of the Daily Beast's interview with Ailes, the Fox chief said Obama's "socialism was too far left" for France and Germany.

Now in part two of the interview we see Ailes setting his sights on Comedy Central's Jon Stewart and NPR's recent firing of journalist Juan Williams.

Calling Stewart "crazy," Ailes said the popular comedian's career revolves solely around exploiting the public's polarization – the same charge, by the way, that Stewart makes about Fox News.

Just when you thought they couldn't get any crazier. :crazy:

10. the left was the first thing the Nazis went after
the fear of socialism and communism was beaten into german's heads and there was no one willing to counter the propaganda because they feared for their lives.

5. Did he really use the apostrophe that way?
Edited on Thu Nov-18-10 01:30 PM by Warren DeMontague
the Nazi thing is bad enough, but the English language can't take much more of this abuse, either.

Edit: What, is the CNN political ticker being written by children? Jesus fucking Christ, CNN.

Hey Jon, maybe you should retire. After all, you are hurting the discourse!
