How Stupid Can Fox News Be?

Pretty stupid, it seems, but it is all an act. They really think that their audience is about as dumb as a box of hammers.

But since most of their target audience voted twice for George Bush and apparently thinks that Sarah Palin is qualified to be president, they may still be speaking over the heads of their audience.

  1. Since well over half the people in my line of work self-identify as Republican, Fox 'News' is the default background noise here. I've always suspected them of calculated inanity, and this segment lends credence to that assessment.

    I am not making this up: The other day someone actually quoted that whole 'czars' riff to me as a serious argument in support of his thesis that Obama is certainly un-American and very likely a Communist.

    I told him to look up 'Czar (political term)' on Wikipedia, but apparently 'those guys are a bunch of atheists so you can't believe anything they say'.

    My glasses are getting worn out from reapeated facepalms. Unfortunately I'd get fired if I directed those where I'd sometimes really like to.
