I gotta give them credit. They are good over there at News Corp.
Fox News has succeeded, yet again in driving the 24 hour news cycles and the blogs. They pushed the TSA "groping" story to where it is now the only thing our blessed Wal-Mart shopping, Xanax consuming, Dancing-with-the-Stars citizenry can converse about.
I wonder what Roger Ailes has selected as our issue of the week after Thanksgiving.
I'm sure we'll soon find out and his "lead story" will be slavishly followed by every "news" outlet in America along with the blogosphere.
At some point, what's the point in watching any other news outlet or even visiting a blog when one can get the story, fabricated as it may be, first at Fox? Why wait for the imitation when you can have the real thing?
Fox's motto should now be "We Decide, Everyone Else Reports".
