Did Fox News win any Emmys???
Edited on Tue Sep-25-07 10:31 AM by monmouth
I see where PBS really walked off with numerous Emmys for their outstanding documentaries, NBC and CBS received a few. I'm looking and looking.....no Fox.... What gives? I thought they were the most watched "News" channel in Murica??? Just wondering...

7. Yeah, you could wring out the cat and taste it fresh
and uncarbonated!

But yeah, it's the Bud Light of news: not what it says it is and won't get you to where it promises to get you.

3. Bill won 2 Peabodys and a Polk award.
Plus he came from a very poor background.

8. They are the "most watched," but then "pro" wrestling is one of the most watched tv shows.
(Probably by many of the same folks who watch Fox).

13. You added NASCAR to the list of FNC and professional wrestling.

I believe the poster's purpose in pointing out FNC and professional wrestling are among the "most watched" shows on television was to highlight the fact that both are also fake. Since NASCAR is not, it does not belong in this list.

For all we know, the poster may consider professional wrestling highly enjoyable entertainment. After all, 99% of the shows on television are fictional. I bet you number several fictional shows among your list of good television viewing.
