yes there is, and those types of comments are posted

Wouldn't surprise me one bit this is all manufactured from the vicious Left.

Can the OP LINK to the actual Fox News comments...or NOT?

I think that any unmoderated comment page would find very similar kinds of posts which is why I never ever venture into large readily available forums like Yahoo (does it still exist). Frankly I don't think that indicative of Fox News (and everyone should know that I have no respect for Faux News.).

Here's one, only a few pages down:

SHe couldn't even sell issues of "the national enquirer" anymore. Everyone was tired of the TNB. ****** flaps her lips and screeches, ****** becomes rich. ****** ends up nearly broke after spending all of her money. ****** in constant fights and drug binges. ****** ODs when she learns she's nearly broke and she is so wasted physically she can't make another album. ****** hit the end of the road, ****** thinking and ****** behavior led her to where she had nothing. She couldn't face life without the "bling bling", she knew she would never have any more "kaching kaching"

I stand corrected, perhaps it's because I was on my tablet when originally looking, and now am on my PC. That said, I've yet to find comments like those referenced, but have just started reading.
