The latest sedition of, Fox News actively makes you stupid

I know that & you know that, but most American tourists don't know that.

 

Here it is, from Bloomberg. Not the Daily Currant or Andy Borowitz.

Fox News hired media critic Howard Kurtz, who recently came under fire for errors in his reporting, as an anchor of a new version of “Fox News Watch.”

Kurtz will also serve as a media analyst on several other programs and write a regular column on FoxNews.com, the News Corp. (NWSA) subsidiary said in a statement. CNN currently features Kurtz on its “Reliable Sources” program, which will continue to air with other hosts after his last show on June 30.

Kurtz, who spent 29 years at the Washington Post before serving as Washington bureau chief for the Daily Beast and Newsweek, has drawn scrutiny for errors in his reporting. On May 2, the Daily Beast retracted a blog post about NBA player Jason Collins that claimed the player wasn’t forthcoming about his engagement. Kurtz left the Daily Beast after the retraction.

In November 2010, Kurtz apologized to readers for posting a story that appeared to be an interview with Republican Congressman Darrell Issa, when in fact he had only been communicating with one of his spokesmen.

Salon puts it in context...

It is always amusing when Salon starts pointing fingers.

 

HAHA is funny because republicans are dumb.

Bro do you even lift?

 

Ignorant is different than dumb.

 

And intentionally ignorant is different than accidentally ignorant.

 

These are people who believe that they know more than PhD scientists about climate change. And they can't and won't look at a flipping poll.

 

And there are people, like Rove, who knew the software was online in Ohio.

 

Samuel Adams Beer Co. Hates America

 

Of course if beer commercials included a mention of God, the Baptists would be all up in their shit.

 

You get upset at the insult you have, not at the insult you wish you had.

 

The View suddenly and vastly improves!!!!

 

I generally don't like annoying tw@t with my Raisin Bran.

 

This one is wack -

I love it for the sheer derangement. It might even be true in part, but that doesn't mean that it's not deranged.

 

I did that once to an (obvious) American in the Milan train station. This overweight guy wearing shorts, sneakers, a T-shirt and straw cowboy hat came up to me and said, "Where cain Ah git me sumfin' t'eat?" I looked at him blankly for a second, and he said "Aw hail, yew cain't speak English, cain you?"

I replied in a fake, generic "foreign" accent, "Ah, yis, a lee-tell bit..." He repeated his question, this time a few decibles louder, just to make sure I understood him. Knowing full well that there was a freakin' Wendy's less than 50 feet away, I carefully pronounced my words in a way that would have made my mythical English teacher proud, "There are minny restaurant near-bah." Apparently, this was not detailed enough, as he asked again, still louder, pointing to his wide-open mouth and emphasizing the word "eat." I repeated myself, and he got disgusted, turned around and walked away.

I hope the bastard starved to death!

 

We have fat reserves that prevent this from happening.

 

Way to go!!!!

How can anyone be this stupid?

 

I guess there's some truth in what was said in Anchorman, that a news anchor will read anything that comes across the teleprompter

 

KTVU's news is independent and has nothing to do with FOX.

 

True. But still... Ho Lee Fuk.

Definitely a fail.

 

They are blaming a summer intern. Really, blame the unpaid. How about entrusting your reputation to real, salaried, employees?
