What the 'Hell" is going on with Fox News!?
Yesterday, during Glenn Becks show .. about halfway through, they put Obama on. He was on Every news channel so I understand that.
TONIGHT, about halfway through Becks show, Fox put him on .. speaking to some 'Black Caucus'!
He Wasn't on Any Other News station!
Wife and I .. To put it mildly .. Pi$$%# at Fox, Obama .. Everyone .. ARGHHHHHHH
That is what I did on the Friday show, at 11:00, and no turd King Obama.
The weekend crew is working at FOX. They’re awful
Just he sight of Obama makes me sick. The arrogant way he struts up to the podium, that little fake run. The way he holds his head in the air. The guy is a walking ego.
Someone should get fired.
Ended in time to air Whore-aldo I’ll bet!
Can’t decide who I can’t stomach more .. Bambi or Whore-aldo.
No one makes you read them. I enjoy reading them.
I was miffed too! It also ran simultaneously on CNN and MSNBC and others. I found it too coincidental that zero selected this time slot which ran against Beck’s show. Beck often appears to be all over the board but when you throw enought thit against the wall some of it eventually sticks. His viewers are the best of the best reporters on the scene. I had to surf the channels until I came across a cooking show.
Pretty soon we will have posts the dog ate my homework...
What should i do ?
Don’t read those threads which do not interest you. That is what I do and it seems to work extremely well.
You really, really think that they schedule his speeches around conservative talkshows? Come on...Ridiculous.
Good for you.
Mr. Mamadearest said the same thing. This is NOT the first time they've done this during the Beck show with an Obama cut-in. The disruption is irritating to say the least, and one would think with Obama excluding FOX from his informercial this past week, FOX would have the gumption to give the dems a little payback by excluding Obama during these speeches.
It's not like we're going to sit there and eagerly await Obama's every word (we'll catch it when they do the hourly news if we choose to hear it at all). We turned off FOX news for the rest of the night. If Fox wants viewers, ticking them off is NOT the way to do it.
I turned off FOX for the rest of the night too. Who do they have making decisions? Perhaps they are sucking up to the fairness doctrine czar.
They’re the same ones who mixed up the audio and video of the Tea Party on Sept. 12—
I found that very odd too. Here Fox has the hottest thing in cable news and they break into it for yet another dull Obama speech. And a speech the viewer could have found on other cable networks or the radio, to boot.
I would love for O'Reilly or someone at Fox to interview the Fox programmers because they are a total puzzle to me. They cut into Glenn Beck for nothing, they keep Shep Smith on for God knows what reason, they let John Gibson go, etc. I don't get it. A monkey tossing a coin could do as well.
I was watching Beck when they interrupted and put Obama on. Thought WTF and switched off immediately.
It really ticked me off too.
“To put it mildly .. Pi$$%# at Fox, Obama .. “
Same here.
But, JMHO,
I think there may be “method to the madness” at FOX.
FOX say they are “fair and balanced”.
And someday, FOX luminaries, most likely Beck will
be in some public forum and get grilled about how “FOX ignores
President Obama and only complains about him and his progressive program!”
To which Beck (or any other FOX spokesperson) can say:
“LISTEN: My show was pre-empted X-number of times and I never registered
a complaint with FOX management! As far as I’m concerned, the more
FOX gives the President airtime, the more they understand him and
his plan to turn the USA from a superpower into a third-world nation!!!”
I’m as steaming mad about these pre-emptions of Beck as anyone.
But I suspect there is a very good reason for it happening.
