I don't usually watch Fox News, but what's up with the huge terra lert
graphics?

It's right on top of the Fox logo, on the bottom left of the screen.

I was channel surfing and it caught my eye. Well, actually, it leaped out at me.

All terra, all the time............

2. Remember, your average Fox news viewer...
has a short memory.

They can't remember when the economy was good.
They can't remember when we weren't scared all the time.
They can't remember when unemployment was at a record low.
They can't remember when we had a surplus.
They can't remember a president with a brain.
They can't remember when lying was bad.
They can't remember when military reserves were just that - reserves.
They can't remember when getting the most votes meant you won.
They can't remember when coming in second meant you lost.

They can't remember 1992 to 2000.

11. Funny Fox moment the other day...
The talking head was throwing it to commercials and was highlighting an upcoming story (don't remember what..."Does Clinton cause cancer in babies?" or something). She babbled on, "A special Fox report up next. WE decide...(awkward pause, tiny giggle, another pause) We report, YOU decide."

Funny, telling and probably the first time Fox has told the truth in some time.
