Anyone else annoyed by the FOX News "ALERT" graphic that always seems to scroll on the lower third?

I'm watching right now and their "ALERT" is - GOV CHRISTIE: POLITICIANS SHOULD SPEAK TO AMERICANS MORE PLAINLY.

Give me a break.

What a hackneyed response. I'll watch whatever I want and I'll complain about whatever I want. Deal with it.

They do it just to keep the attention of the lower IQ viewers that watch fox. Everything is an "ALERT! ALERT!" "BREAKING! BREAKING!" "NOW! NOW!" same as the ticker and the bleach blonde bimbos.

Evidently some feel you topic is banal and requested it be deleted. So I guess you could say a hackneyed topic deserve a response in like.
Deal with that!
