The "Fox News Democrats" - Joe Lieberman, Zell Miller, Dick Morris...
Edited on Sun Mar-21-04 12:48 PM by stopbush
Georgie the Steph, et al. Yep, that's my new name for these guys - Fox News Democrats. DINO is too benign...it reminds people of that lovable animal on The Flintstones.

They can't get a forum from traditional Dem outlets/network news to spout their "we love W and the repigs" philosophies, but Faux will give them all the airtime they want...as long as they're bashing other Dems.

I like my new moniker better. What do you think?

4. FAUX News is sensationalist - Yellow Journalism. FAUX Lies, the people die
FAUX is the = of English tabloids but gone cable.

5. Faux News N(ever)ow
The Faux news channel is a horrific example of biased journalism that produces half truths (Or less) in their actions, they present opinion as fact and follow the republican agenda doggedly.

What we need is a cable news network that is like public radio, viewer supported with news that is unbiased and as truthful as possible. Too bad it wouldn't have the speed of the others though.

6. I don't like Joe, but he's a lot better than Dick Morris or Zell Miller
I wouldn't put him in their category. He's still a democratic, just more conservative than most. Zell and Dick are not democrats at all.

Sellout Democrats, or as Al Sharpton calls them:

Republicans in democratic clothing
