Spotted another FOXISM on the ticker
I was just watching another inane discussion with Janine Turner about how great Michele Bachmann is. Why? I don't know.

The ticker was talking about the stupid degradation of the postal service. It included the following.

... will close half of its 500 mil processing centers.

Maybe it was a typo, but I doubt it. Maybe "mil" is somehow effective shorthand for Fox, to save one character, and it was meant to imply the word "mail."

But don't you think it was probably meant to imply that the federal government operates five-hundred million post offices around the country?

I think that. FOX News holds its own viewers in utter contempt, and thinks they are completely brain dead.

Unfortunately, they are pretty much correct about that.

1. They are heavily into the quasi-subliminal bullshit, that's for sure.
Every time they mislabel a politician's party, put the wrong countries on a map, or any of their other stupidity, you can be at least 95% certain it's for a reason. :(
