This may be a throwaway thread, but the complaint about Fox in this case is not even vaguely about partisanship.

Did you even bother to read any of the sources?

Murdoch's groups are lying to cover for each other - and, in the particular story I was tracking - News Corp directly interfered in the murder investigation of a little girl. (And hacked private data of deceased servicemen).

Conservatives should be pissed at Fox about this. I know I am.


I didn't say it was partisan.

And I'm ticked at Fox for being idiots on this issue.


I don't mind them being idiots. I don't think idiocy is a likely explanation in this case, though.

Perhaps you didn't say "it was partisan". I'm sure you can see how "that liberals in this thread are mad at Fox... and I'm not surprised in the slightest.
If it was conservatives, they'd be pi$$ed at CNN..." basically (seems like it) equates to the same thing, though?

Heh.

Mark Foley didn't work for the same paymaster, though.

What I mean was if it happens once, it's probably a mistake, when they make the same mistake repeatedly (like repeatedly calling Foley a Democrat once he was in trouble) it starts to seem intentional.

I wonder if aliens will have penises. God I hope so. They need to have at least semi-human genitalia.

Sometimes, you just need to suck something or take something, as opposed to sticking your dick in a hole.

Anyway...something that isn't me being awkward by normal standards.

On the plus side, I might end up with a girlfriend tomorrow.
