Fox News' Red Eye. It's hip without being cool. Funny minus the humor. Witty without any intelligence.

3. What a horrible human being that person is.
Who is he and when does Faux air that Goodforsaken show? I only got through half of the clip because it was so awful. What a despicable cast of cretins. Techno music and antisemitism is all Europe offers? Yes. That's impressive television. Riveting, if your IQ hovers in the room temperature range.

15. Fox "News" is a niche network
Edited on Sun Apr-05-09 03:21 AM by WhoIsNumberNone
for right-wing blowhards. And the drool that we see in this video represents exactly how right-wing blowhards think. And since this "show" runs against infomercials for fat busting machines and commemorative plates, I guarantee it has the ratings to last more than a couple of months. It won't go away until it gets so bad that its audience is embarrassed to watch it (don't hold your breath).

18. And then he'll be back living with his mom.
She's gotta be his only regular viewer anyway.

8. Touche, but I've never watched it.

But you're right, it doesn't look like news.

7. If this is the "retooling" of their Half Hour News Hour
Edited on Sat Apr-04-09 10:02 PM by rocktivity
they've wasted their time and money: Fox News still does a better job of satirizing the news with their regular programming.

This sounds like Bill Maher's Real Time on amphetamines.

11. Hideous
This program is disgusting on so many levels that I can't see conservatives liking it either. Then again, the modern Republican party aren't conservative anyway.

12. Looks like they're unapologetic after the Canada episode.
Their explanations are so off-base.

13. Fox "news"
First off that is an obvious oxymoron, second the answer is, of course the can go lower and probably will, as Rupert gets more desperate for ratings.

19. Augh! Can this network get any worse?
And it sounded like a toilet was flushing in the background, or was that just my imagination?

20. The toilet flush was a necessary addition, IMHO
If you don't flush a giant turd quickly down the toilet it can stink up the whole house and the shit coming out of these clowns' mouths is unbelievable. Originally, I was just going to gong all the Obama-bashing on "fair and balanced" Red Eye. However, that didn't appear to be nearly adequate a response.
