Fox Fires Intern for Revealing the Bias We All Know They Have (Barf Alert)
Snafu-ed ^ | May 11, 2008

Fox News, or as I prefer to call it, Faux News, fired an intern for revealing the bias we all have toward the GOP. As MSNBC's Don Abrams said, she apparently did not get the memo that said that on Faux News, "you are supposed to pretend you are fair and balanced."

The production assistant, identified as Jennifer Locke, was on assignment with a camera crew to cover the Time 100 Party.

Locke: "John McCain, Fox News."

McCain: "Fox News, I'm always glad to talk to Fox News."

Locke: "I voted for you in the primary."

McCain: "Thank you very much, you're not supposed to reveal that."

Locke: "You're gonna win."

McCain: "Thank you, thank you."

But why fire her? For being honest about they way they all really feel? I've often wondered if everyone at Fox News is as far right as they portray themselves, or if some fake and for their career's sake and feel bad about it off-camera.

Adds MSNBC's Don Abrams, "When you work at a place that’s clearly partisan, they should at least make sure that their younger staff get the memo about feigning objectivity."

McCain: “Fox News, I’m always glad to talk to Fox News.”

Locke: “Thank you very much, you’re not supposed to reveal that.”

See, it works both ways. Such an admission might make him look less RINOesque.

So says the homo who posted a public response to Karl Rove on Huffington Post - the source of all truth and objectivity.
