Kettle (Fox) calling pot (Franken) black - St. Paul paper

Hope this isn't a dupe.
Funny article from the St. Paul Pioneer Press Media writer.

http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/news/columnists/6517670.htm

(snip)
This, I remind you, is from the people who employ Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly and give Matt Drudge and Ann Coulter more air time than most non-Republicans. Strictly speaking, can any of the Fox News "team" be considered any more a "journalist" or "news personality" (emphasis on the "news") than Franken, who I don't believe has ever said he was either?

(snip)
Have Fox's lawyers ever watched their own channel? It's essentially programmed by and for the shrill, unstable and depthless.

1. If I didn't know better, I'd think Fox was shilling for our side.

Everything about this ridiculous lawsuit makes Al Franken look great!

2. Good stuff

I liked the quip I hear hear yesterday, call the Faux News people "Foxholes". I still maintain that many RW'ers watch Faux News cause they WANT to be lied to - it makes life so much nicer and simpler for them.

4. Fox News is Double-Plus Good!

We've always been at war with France.

5. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I Love Franken.

Something tell's me the name Al, is not a popular one at FOX or the GOP. The sad thing is that what Al Franken said is true!
(Oh the humanity)
Are Republicans greedy or what.
