Has FOX News 'Jumped The Shark' Over Mitt???
VANITY | February 8, 2012

Posted on 02/08/2012 7:32:27 AM PST by Elle Bee

FOX News may have 'jumped the shark' over mittens

Fair and balanced is Juan McCain

I for one have had enough of the ‘wisdom’ of Bill Cristal, Chas. Krauthammer, Ted Baxter, Bret Beahr, Toyko Rove, Ann Colter, Chris Wallace, Sean Wannabe, Dana Parino, Brit Hume, Shep Smith, Judge Jeanene, Alam Comes, Bob Beckle, Juan Williams, Whoraldo, et. al. all acting the part of the Romney cheerleading squad ?

Does anyone else 'feel my pain'?

Anyway, like I was sayin', Mitt Romney is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue Mitt, boil Mitt, broil Mitt, bake Mitt, saute Mitt. Dey's uh, Mitt-kabobs, Mitt creole, Mitt gumbo. Pan fried Mitt, deep fried Mitt, stir-fried Mitt. There's pineapple Mitt, lemon Mitt, coconut Mitt, pepper Mitt, Mitt soup, Mitt stew, Mitt salad, Mitt and potatoes, Mitt burger, Mitt sandwich. That- that's about Mitt.

ROTFLMAO ... that's spot on

They both pissed me off when they went after Christine O’Donnell. There was no “let’s all come together to support the republican nominee” which they always said when moderates or liberals like Specter and Snowe and McCain are nominated. Instead, they worked to undermine the conservative because they’d prefer a democrat to win over any conservative.

I’m not fooled any more by these people and couldn’t care less what their opinions are.

Give it a rest on the FOX. Take it for what it’s worth. Fox & Friends had Santorum on this AM and Paul Ryan. Good on them!

That's one of the problems FOX has now ....

Steve Doocy, the morning weather guy, is the most consistently conservative voice on the network

"Give it a rest on the FOX."

That would be a bad idea. Fox can be made to see the err of the ways. After Hume was outed for his Mitt man-crush, they were swamped with email and web postings and distanced themselves from Hume, by pointing out his positions were, HIS positions. They know who butters their bread.

They're getting a little full of themselves lately because after beating other cable networks for so long, they are now beating network numbers. Trying to move a bit to the middle. They need their wings to be clipped.

Here’s a theory. Fox was and is part of the media cabal that has gifted us with Obama. Their role was to criticize Obama enough that we would come to trust them as the only conservative press outlet. They were attacked by the administration so we would see them as our ally. When they had our trust they would start feeding us Mittens, who is just a more polished, lighter skinned Obama. He will continue what was started years ago by the KGB, with the able assistance of Bill Ayers and his crew. Pray for our country because very dark forces are allied against it.

Fox doesn’t agree with you, so therefore, they are now the enemy?

Pretty laughable isn't it? Fox is the only game in town. There is no other network to go to. Fox News isn't conservative, so what? It is not designed to be a conservative network. It is a network with SOME conservative leaning people who are actually willing to criticize Hussein. That many of them prefer the RINO Republican is better than watching them support Obama.

People need to get over it and stop crying about Fox. Every network HATED Reagan, and he still won twice. If we had an excellent conservative candidate that could really unite the grassroots/base/Tea Party, Fox News nor anyone else could stop them from winning the GOP nomination. The problem is that we don't have such a candidate this time around. Newt and Rick are better than Romney, but neither of them are especially charismatic and exciting to enough people to really unify conservatives.

I am constantly amazed that there are still freepers who have not seen through Fox News. They are in the business to make money, and they do so by being the only relatively conservative news source. That said, they are otherwise CRAP. The Katrina fiasco showed me that. I dont watch them unless I have to.. Honestly, I prefer CNN. At least it is well done propaganda, and when it comes to some stories, like about science, it is far superior to Faux (yes, I said it) News.

I hate to say it, but the only ones left standing are Dr. Michael Weiner and Laura Ingraham. And I can’t take Weiner.

Me too. These ass hats jumped on the Mitt bandwagon because they felt they wanted to be on the winning side. These nitwits are in for a rude awaking.

I wish I could say that I will stop watching Fox News.

However, I emailed Fox News to tell them I would quit watching them after they hired Whorealdo.

I received a very nice reply telling me how wonderful it was to have Whorealdo and that they did not need me.

I now only watch local news from the Fox affiliate and for election coverage watch CNN with the sound off.

Perino is absolutely insufferable. Her face never shows emotion. She must be a very beautiful woman and an extremely cold fish in bed! Every guy who sees her wants to do her, but she’s just cold man, cold!

You mean like Anna Nicole and the Holloway/Vander Sloot thing?

There’s only one true news source and you’re on it.

You're quite correct ... you'll learn more critical thinking skills here than you will on most any college campus or news screen

For some reason there have been a number of vanity threads lately asking where they can find a good online news source. They’ve stemmed from the fact that Drudge appears to be in the tank for Romney.

I don’t understand the fascination with Drudge as a news source (or any other for that matter). All he does is post news stories. Here we not only do the same (and not infrequently beating out Drudge), but have ongoing commentary as well. It’s a no-brainer, IMO.

in a real world and in a real business model ... watching the ratings and demographics you would think someone else whould air another conservative leaning cable network

It just occured to me why FOX is Mitt's Cheerleader!

FOX has become the Mitt Romney of news
