Jon Stewart calls Fox News the "lupus of news"
I never would have thought of it that way,but what an excellent analogy.

his quote -

"You're criticizing me for not living up to your tagline. And you dismiss any criticism as further evidence of how the rest of the media persecute you. You like to pretend, Bernie Goldberg and Fox News, that the relentless conservative activism of Fox News is the equivalent of the disorganized liberal influence you find at NBC, ABC and CBS. But Fox News, you may be able to detect a liberal pathogen in their bloodstream, however faint. But Fox News is such a crazy over-reaction to that perceived threat, you're like an auto-immune disorder. I'm not saying the virus doesn't exist in some small quantity. But you're producing way too many antibodies. Fox News, you're the lupus of news."

5. The greatest ever! In my mind Fox News will always be the "Lupus of News".
I know Lupus well, two relatives who had Lupus now deceased.
