And I suppose that is the only function they have. To allow Fox viewers to say the network is somehow balanced because of them.

5271

I know some people watch that shit all fucking day.

So they do reach some of them, but their main draw for the higher ups is definitely the veneer of respectability they bring.

5272

Yeah, you have to weigh the illusion of balance they provide vs the fact that they may be the only exposure a Fox-only viewer has to a non-propaganda viewpoint. I find both Shep and Wallace a lot more likable and respectable than plenty of other people Fox could choose to plug in as an “other” viewpoint.

Must watch TV. Lord Haw Haw will get to the bottom of it.

Dang, if I had nothing to do all day I’d be playing a lot more games than watching cable news.

Maybe if old folks had discovered videogames history would be different…

I imagine myself with Alzheimer’s many years from now, randomly saying “Boo, go for the eyes!”

Will be worth it for the eventual gifs alone.

Cue the Captain America gif saying “I got that reference.”

It’s, “Go for the eyes, Boo. Go for the eyes.”

Thank you! It was making me twitch, but I didn’t want to say anything.

So maybe not that many years … the memory’s already starting to go. ;)

I’ve said it before, but imagine being someone who watches Hannity.

5283

Lol.

Fox News vying for Pulitzers.

So he golfed with a guy working at the company where he was working?

5286

Hilarious. If a murderer like Kim was an avid golfer, there’d be pics of him and DJT golfing all over the world. Props to Tucker for bringing home the journalistic goods.

Guys! Guys! I just found a picture of Obama, Biden and Trump together. He’s in on it too111111

So the logic here is that if there is any validity to claims of Hunter’s shenanigans in Ukraine, that means Trump’s pressuring of Zelensky falls within bounds of perfectly legitimate foreign policy, not using the office to smear a political rival?

5289

Basically yes along with some other aspects.

Their thought pattern goes:
Biden’s son is corrupt >> Biden tried to force out the prosecutor >> Therefore Biden is corrupt >> Trump is trying to uncover Biden’s corruption >> Therefore Trump is our hero >> Anyone trying to investigate Trump for this is corrupt

A big case of “I’m rubber, you’re glue!”
