That is what happens when the government meddles in the media. To say it could not happen again is well....

I prefer to err on the side of caution when it is my government we are speaking of.

Foxnews has been a bogeyman of the left for some time. It's probably the only mouthpiece on air that dares to question left-wing dogma or politicians. When Obama says he'll take on the "corporate media", he's basically talking about harassing Fox News.

The "Fox Noize Channel" can use some harassment! I'll be the first to admit that CNN (Clinton News Network) and MSNBC (Why are we a news channel?) "bend" the facts to site their particular political slant, but FNC transports the facts into a whole new dimension of "Fox speak" and "contextualized noize"! BTW, FNC has the hottest looking "reporterettes" along with the best staging and leg shots of any cable news channel, hands down!

This isn't something to joke about, and I do hope your joking. If the government gets its hands on Fox News or other perceived conservative news outlets in anyway, there's going to be hell to pay.

With many parts of our lives out of our control, we all need a little jocularity to lighten our emotional and physical stressers! Humor is the best tonic for a distressed planet!
