Fox News is really scared about what might happen, and oblivious to what already has.

Yeah, it is totally unfair to ask us to to not compromise our values when times are tough.

On his show this past Friday, the ever insightful and witty Jon Stewart totally nailed the grossly misleading way that Fox News represents itself. I'm all for hearing dissenting views and opinions, and I'll concede that the media tends to lean left, so having a one-sided take on the news from the right is perfectly fine by me; however, Fox News masquerading as a bastion for even-handedness is downright hilarious. The fact that their tagline is "Fair and Balanced" is one of the more disingenuous mantras around. They can't possibly be serious when they say that! Just watch one "Fox and Friends" or "Hannity" and you'll see what I mean. Just blatant in their myopia, plain and simple. I always wonder if people in the Fox News studio giggle every time they hear their motto being said because there is no way in hell any reasonable person could take the statement seriously. Of course, they may be totally oblivious, demonstrating an amazing ability to believe their own bullshit while also providing a watchful public with a real life example of Orwellian doublethink. This must be the case, as I've seen multiple shows over the past week or so that lament the media's one-sided take on the Obama inauguration, which causes me to throw up in my mouth each time it occurs.

Why can't we just call a spade a spade? MSNBC = liberal. Fox News = conservative. Let's just make peace with the obvious and move on. Why all the faking?

The Rush Limbaugh affair evokes a level of disgust that is several orders removed. I love that Keith Olbermann refers to him as "comedian Rush Limbaugh" because the guy has indeed turned into a caricature of an angry, mean-spirited ideologue. And the fact that he commonly uses the metaphor of "grabbing one's ankles" is weird on several levels, not least of which involves the very real possibility that this man hasn't even been able to see his ankles for most of his adult life, much less bend over to grab them.

Which is not a shocker.
