In typical Fox News fashion, when we asked a Fox News writer how a Central Park cyclist ended up being dragged on the hood of his SUV for four blocks, he blamed the victim, calling the biker a "vigilante."
Glenn Beck had an amazing transformation today on Fox News: In the morning, the conservative shouting head was saying Sonia Sotomayor was just your typical, politically correct Supreme Court nominee from a liberal president. By the evening, Beck had decided she was actually a dangerous racist.
So Glenn Beck has agreed to write books for children and teenagers. We almost missed that when reading about the Fox Newser's book deal today. We almost weren't terrified.
No, Glenn Beck isn't just a bad dream you woke up from a few weeks ago; he's the rising star of Fox News Channel and still America's leading populist demagogue. How will he stay on top?
Fox News Channel likes to pound the drums for patriotism and the armed forces. Odd, then, that it keeps letting its military analyst rail against the Pentagon for curtailing money to his clients.
Jesse Watters, Bill O'Reilly's ambush artist, has sworn off ambushing. Oh, he still plans to stalk his boss' enemies in a hollow charade of getting answers, but that word — "ambush" — sounds so tawdry.
Just to remind you one of the reasons why we staked out Jesse Watters' house this morning:
Via his
Twitter page, he says, "I don't consider what I do 'ambushing.'" That's a lie.
[Update below]
Here's Bill O'Reilly, correcting in-house libtard Alan Colmes' ludicrous assertion that Richard Nixon shook hands with Mao Zedong, so it's OK for Barack Obama to give Hugo Chavez a handjob. Nixon never touched Mao.
Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly have had it with parent companies getting involved with the content of cable news! They are talking, of course, about News Corporation General Electric.
The New York Times finally asked Fox News, "Hey what's the deal with the constant stalky ambush interviews?" The answer was priceless.
Glenn Beck is going to try and be hilarious on purpose in a six-city tour this June. Apparently he's been doing these "comedy" tours twice a year since 2003. This year they might matter.
It's worth remembering the fictional newsman of the moment, Howard "I'm mad as hell" Beale from Network, was actually mentally ill. Now Beale's closest modern analog is himself stumbling toward insanity.
Fox News analyst Thomas McInerney bizarrely twisted today's pirate attack to cheerlead for a pricey fighter the Obama administration plans to cancel. Is that because he's been paid by a contractor on the plane?
Glenn Beck takes his lumps from Fox News colleagues Shep Smith and Dennis Miller, but that's OK, because the Fox & Friends crew will happily fluff his ego back into shape each morning.
The poetry, the praise for his "AWESOME" show, the compliments about his clothes — really, guys, you're too kind. Especially…
(UPDATED) Despite reports he was fired for reviewing a pirated copy of Wolverine, Fox News columnist Roger Friedman will have a chance to argue for his job, a Fox News source said.
Your typical liberal wimp likes to do a little yoga in the morning, maybe some positive visualization. A Fox News broadcaster, meanwhile, likes to punch himself in the face, repeatedly. Here's how.
Insanely weepy Glenn Beck will probably cry over what it means for our country, but Stephen Colbert's thorough Tuesday-night takedown of the Fox News host is, in one way, a compliment.
Fox News Channel today launched TheFoxNation.com, to finally give conservative pundits and commentators a place to gather online. (Cough, cough.) The site is already firing on all cylinders.
