Fox News Hosts - Who is the worst?

Just to back up a bit: R Maddow, at least, has spent lots of time covering EFCA -- actually she started covering Hilda Solis during the confirmation process, pointing out that Solis' support of EFCA was almost certainly the issue Repubs were delaying her for, regardless of what they were saying on the record. She has re-reported on EFCA many times since then, including what right-wingers are saying about it in the news, and how they're simply factually WRONG about what EFCA contains and what it would mean for employees in practice.

lol daria, that is amazing

xpost - hahaha i totally saw that! fantastic. one of my friends messaged me like 'ZOMG TRUCK CHASE! WATCH STUDIO B'

the talking points memo had a video the other day with every news program going nuts over this swine flu thing..
a-ha!

lol Buchanan calling Obama "America's Hot Dog"

shep seems rather pissed off at 1) people writing in blaming "illegal aliens" (the crazy emailers words) for the flu outbreak and 2) eric massa on studio b right now making this a thing about closing borders and free trade (what?)

you guys watch fox news

"there's a flue. forty people have the flu."

copneb returns

fuck i always mistype 'flu' what is the DEAL with THAT

i watch every news, effectively. fox is more fun to talk about

that's how they get the ratings

you guys watch fox news

this sounds like an Anal Cunt song title.

what's your estimate of the fraction of FNC's nielsen take that's curious/loling/aghast liberals

interjection: o'reilly remains a wretched scumfuck and is not worthy of "well, he's not as bad as the other dudes" shit upthread.

best of the car chase!

<3 <3 - "is he not wearing pants or is he wearing shorts. it's a hot day"

next completely off the hook moment, shep should get his own thread, i don't really want to talk about the other people on fox any more. studio b seems to have more of those. i can't believe that for all these years i was totally unaware of the weirdest show on television.

^^ this went on for like 6 minutes. i hope someone posts the whole thing on the youtubes. started to wonder if they booked cliff may specifically so they could yell at him again for being such a fascist.

Glenn Beck signed an international, multi-division deal with Simon & Schuster, oh fuck.

^^^awesome

srs lolz here

wow that was awesome

I don't understand. Was he drunk? Ill? I can't stand to watch these shows so I don't really get this thread but I try to y'know keep up.

afaik, just a random guest booked on the show who wasn't used to doing TV and got nervous/ill. that keyboard cat song is waaayyyyy too damn catchy

watching studio b @ the moment. interview with bernie madoff's secretary who is sort of getting cross-examined right here & doesn't seem to have expected it - which is very entertaining.

this was just on CNN!
keyboard cat and bristol palin's anti-teen-pregnancy tour are situations in that room over there at the CNN, i guess.

The thing I love about the Glenn Beck one is Keyboard Cat getting ready, waiting for the guy to eventually pass out before playing.

OMG those last two video clips were AWESOME.

LOL at O'Reilly becoming totally unglued.

Play him off Keyboard Cat is like the greatest thing ever, isn't it?

that O'Reilly thing is OOOOOOOOLD

Uh obviously! Just look at his hair!

I now feel kind of bad for the "I'm going to pass out" guy in the Glenn Beck clip.

Yeah, and Beck was all "hey shake my hand and go pass out off-camera, guy"... 'cept he didn't make it.

That's funny that you interpreted it that way. I actually thought he seemed pretty sympathetic, too, in a "I'm emotionally close to the edge myself and I feel for you, man" sort-of-way.

But I can see how you got to your interpretation.

i don't have any software here to make an interwebs meme out of this thing, but.. bret baier cracks me the hell up. at the end of his show every day (this is just before shep is on at 7), they play some humorous little clip from daily show or late night tv. i guess those are funny but what is REALLY funny is baier's reaction to this - they always show him chuckling at it afterward and it is exactly the same reaction every single time. i can't really explain why this is so hilarious but it is. he's his own moment of zen.

daria, seriously, you should write a FOX News watch blog. I would read it!

^^^cosign

my wife was asking where I was getting all this goofy Fox News stuff from and I was like "er, uh there's this person on the internet who watches Fox News so I don't have to..."

heh. i've seen way too much lately. i get home from work early & tend to have a total and complete energy crash in the late afternoon so that's when i catch a block of this stuff

earlier shep & catherine herridge (dc correspondent) were straight up *laughing* at the GOP "keep terrorists out of america act" (which is actually what it is called). "those republicans are subtle, right?"

This is certainly stale material, but the first :30 of this O'Reilly remix made me smile:

My favorite: "I dunno/I dunno/I dunno . . . F--k!" (at about the :22 mark).

yay, thread revive. i wish it was on youtube but it's not.. the other day studio b had the SO-CALLED world's smallest cat. i dunno if i believe it. because there was this:

World's Smallest Cat!

who IS the small cat, really?

Must re-poll, and include "Pink Eyes." That's F----d Up, no pun intended.

red eye is the worst show on television, bar none

the host is a smarmy asshole and the commentators are no names who'll say whatever just to keep the show even the slightest bit lively

i dont even understand why fox news produces the show? it runs at 3 AM ET/2 AM CT only and they don't replay it during the day at all - who is watching the show? i dont understand it

the 3 AM ET/2 AM CT slot is the worst one in cable - mostly everything has switched to infomercials except for this lineup

cnn: replay of 'the larry king show'
msnbc: replay of 'hardball with chris matthews'
fox news: first-run of 'red eye'

^^these are the worst shows on each respective network

it's too bad, you could do all sorts of crazy stuff at that hour! they couldn't find someone funny?? (i've never watched the red eye, myself.)

btw more lols from the shep

one of the entertainment reporters was on a few days later talking about miss california (lots of snarky coverage of that on studio b). he made some remark like hey you could be the next miss california but you wouldn't have to take naked pictures, & she was like UH WHAT

haha yeah i saw that - was super weird

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxvunbIWNyI

shep was great today

he was reading some of the stuff written by the holocaust museum shooter just in this droll voice - "i was sentenced to jail by a jew judge" or whatever - then he looks up at the camera and intones "happy guy"
