fox isn't news, it's entertainment.
they do this shit to be controversial and get ratings.
fuck 'em.

Dave - 3-23-2009 at 03:41 PM

apparently that douche-bag, has written a formal apology now......

morgan - 3-23-2009 at 04:04 PM

Yeah I only got about half way through this before I had to turn it off. Making a joke about a country is one thing but just insulting them is another.

Voodoobillyman - 3-23-2009 at 04:08 PM

Absolutely ridiculous and I apologize for protecting THEIR freedom of speech, they REALLY don't deserve it.

newbreedbrian - 3-23-2009 at 04:29 PM

it's amazing to me that so many people with nothing to say and even less to back it up have a voice these days. we had the way too frequent minute of silence at work today for 4 more dead canadian soldiers in afghanistan. really nice to come home to these smug, arrogant uninformed douchebags trying for a ratings grab off our backs.

I saw this earlier and it pissed me off. The sheer ignorance and lack of knowledge about Canada was disgusting, even for FOX News.

Fuck that piece of shit Gutfeld. The worthless hack couldn't make it as the editor of Stuff or Maxim UK so he got a job being an annoying jerkoff for Fox News. Fuck, he's a dumbed down version of Glenn Beck or Ann Coulter.

Outrage

How could you not take notice to all of the inaccuracies
The distorted truths behind state of the union every fabricated story
Turn off cnn and fuck fox news I hold them both accountable
Your broadcast becomes bias when your influenced views are political

Where is your outrage

Yes the mainstream medias been feeding all malnourished minds in this society
Taking for granted you wont ask questions catch the whole motherfucking world sleeping
Because their paid, because their censored told what to say how and when
They’re only giving half the story another lie told with a devils grin

Where is your outrage…. America

Did you turn away, did you turn a blind eye, did you buy the lies? America.




....Song I wrote for the band I'm in.... It seemed appropriate.....

I'm not sure I'm interpreting your lyrics the correct way but what I'm getting at the moment (and I have been drinking) is your thoughts on the infotainment that is pumped out by major news outlets that play to their side of the political spectrum. If that's the case, I agree 100% since it seems their are so called political commentators that only play to their side in the hopes of getting ratings and selling books.

I can't watch the Y-Tube clip from here, but I don't really have to, Fox News is fairly predictable. That having been said, I served alongside five of those 116 men, they all had families and they were all stand-up guys. Ask any US soldier on the ground over there, and they will tell you how much they appreciate the Canadian contingent and their abilities as soldiers. The men on the ground know what's up, so fuck Fox News.

i work at the dockyards, doing fleet maintenance on our ships and submarines. we work alongside the navy, so it's standard procedure to have a minute of silence at my workplace.

You are correct my good man. Drinking has served you well...!

I avoided this until now because it's Fox and everyone know's its a load of shit, but I got sick of all the Facebook groups.

Red Eye is hardly a news story, they had Damien from Fucked Up on it a while back. It's like a late night TV show.

Don't they have a point about the military though? They don't dump billions of dollars annually into the armed forces every year, it's not the biggest budget by far.

Bringing up the war of 1812 as a response is always fun but kinda gets old :lol:

Dave - 3-25-2009 at 10:57 PM

hey Brian, you should have mentioned, that the dockyards, means CFB Halifax, not just somewhere, that random ships come in....
