8. Yup. Fox doesn't want it's local markets showing how much they've benefitted
from the life of Ted Kennedy. They don't want people to know that a liberal Democrat did so many good things for them. They don't want their viewers to see the outpouring of love and respect for this courageous lion of a liberal.

5. I just checked all my local channels, same thing.



(Tampa Bay coverage area)

The local ClusterFaux chanel is showing a 'get rich quick in the stock market' infomercial.

Their number on the screen is 800-719-0405. Call and tell them what you think. :eyes:

Every one of the other channels has live coverage of the funeral.

Faux makes me want to :puke:
