How could you forget Kobe? I am really fed up with all of it. I wrote this letter to them last week....I don't know if you saw it or not. I posted it on another thread.
For several years, if I was home, the television was on and tuned to Fox News. The past couple of months, all that has changed. The reason: Kobe and Scott. Well, that's not entirely the reason, but they are the glaring synptom of a much more serious problem, and that is the picking and choosing of what gets reported. With all due respect, your priorities stink. In a year, 10 years, 20 years, nobody is even going to know who Scott Peterson and Kobe Bryant are, and most people wish they didn't know now. It is no wonder that America is such a mess when the top Cable News network thinks THAT is what is important in America today. Well, maybe it is if you're trying to appeal to the brainless wonders of the public school system whose idea of mental stimulation is MTV, but if you are trying to hold on to a reasonably intelligent audience, I would recommend you aim a little higher.
Our country is at war, our borders are being invaded, expressions of our faith are being driven underground, racism is not only being institutionalized, but enshrined, we have a judge in Florida passing a death sentence on a woman who has committed no crime while protecting the one who has committed crimes against her, democrats in congress can't open their mouths without undermining the president, we have traitors sitting on the Senate intelligence committee selling out national security in deference to their political ambitions and in the Senate, they can't seem get it through their pea brains that they are in the minority and use playground level bullying and childish temper tantrums to keep the president's judicial nominees from going to the floor for a vote because they object to the fact that these are judges who honor the Constitution instead of being judicial tyrants who hold the entire country hostage to the communist agenda of the likes of the ACLU and NAACP.
These are all issues that will impact ALL of our futures, and the futures of our children and grandchildren. These are issues whose disposition will determine the course of history for generations to come, but what do you talk about? Kobe and Scott. WHO CARES? I will get my news from Free Republic. I will still turn on Fox, and sometimes do when someone on Free Republic says there is something on worth hearing about and with which I am concerned as an American, but those times are getting less frequent all the time. I hate seeing Fox News go the way of the rest of the media, giving a platform to every fork-tongued, empty-headed blowhard with a belly full of hatred for everything American while virtually ignoring that these are the same people who are gnawing away the very fabric of our country. Is there anybody left in the media who has an objective relationship with the truth?
"Now back to our regularly scheduled program. In this episode, we will discuss the secret relationship between Scott Peterson and Kobe Bryant."

Maybe I should have included this at the end....
