SHAME ON FOX NEWS! ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!

06-25-09 | MJ Rackley

[fishergirl]

I had to change the channel, too, but waited a little while to see if Shep would start actually crying! He just blubbered on and on.

[txroadkill]

what the hell is he talking about now? the internet slowed to a crawl win Jacko died??? Free Republic was running fine here.

[Osnome]

Hey MaryJean, what do you expect?
FoxNews is not really conservative, it is SHOWBIZ!

As for Shep ‘weeping’ over Jacko, again, it fits the pattern.

I mean if FoxNews was serious conservative news and journalism would they have ever hired Geraldo Rivera-?

[arasina]

Sickening, fawning coverage. Shepard Smith said Michael Jackson was the most famous person in the world --- although that may be questionable because of the fame of Øbama. I wanted to puke. Then comes Al Sharpton yelling about what good friends he and Jacko were. Even Joe Pesci called in.

THIS is what is IMPORTANT to the majority of Americans! Dunces, fools, ignoramuses!

Has Hollywood stopped to think that when we have all lost our livelihoods and buried in taxation --- we won't be able to support their adulation habit any longer? How are they going to make money from a Third World America?

[NavyCanDo]

FOX Loves Celebrity gossip stories, and will push ALL other stories aside for them. How many hours did we get of OJ?

[KoRn]

I was thinking the same.

There’s no much bad shit in Congress right now with the vote tomorrow on ‘cap and tax’, and some valuable time is being WASTED on this coverage.

I know it’s a big story, but it shouldn’t have ‘wall to wall’ coverage like a major earthquake or something of the like.

[Winstons Julia]

Yep. I agree with your prescription.

This is a big story. And it JUST happened. It’s a shock. Smith just said something about the internet being inundated. I’m not surprised.

He was a celebrity. He was also controversial.

[wolficatZ]

 

"LONG LIVE THE NEW FLESH!"

[Osnome]

>>>>Right now it’s an Al Sharpton mouth-a-thon on Fox.<<

So who had sharpton on the “TV whore” pool?<<

Fat Al placed himself there with the willing complicity of the New York Media(Fox included).

[yield 2 the right]

Shep MTV/VH1 and the like DJ-ing on FNC now....

[Cementjungle]

Jackson’s death will suck all the air out of TV programming for the next few nights

Which is probably driving Kim Jong-Il nuts (well, more nuts).

[tsmith130]

That’s what I’m watching too. =)

[LA Woman3]

Fox News is showing more music videos than MTV!

[freespirited]

Unbelievable.

And tomorrow’s breaking news.

FOX scores highest ratings in TV history.

[dforest]

We turned Fox off. All this angst and hype lionizing a child molester is awful.

I have had enough.

Shep Smith is a sick basta*d.

[Osnome]

FOXNEWS will probably devote the next 24 hours to updates about Jacko’s demise.

[arasina]

Who else is on the “watch list” besides Patrick Swayze?

[zerosix]

I'm with you, kiddo. I finally gave up with even muting the Shep-ster's slobbering.

I felt sure that the regular "Special Report" would resume but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, just more run of the various loops FNC had of the white girl who used to be a black boy!

[WashStateGirl]

At first Greta came out and was calling MJ a little Freak Boy with a lot of problems both physical and mental. Then about an hour later she is back on again with sheppie saying what a great talent the little pedo was, she totally changed her tune... There must be a Big Fox tie in somewhere...

[Colonel Kangaroo]

NO, NOT MORE SHEP!!!!!!!!!

[Winstons Julia]

I know.

I used to love Michael Jackson. I remember the premiere of the “Thriller” video. After the child abuse allegations, the music made me feel hinky.

Jackson was a seriously messed up man...he was basically indentured underage slave labor for a totalitarian abusive father.

[al baby]

Who else is on the “watch list” besides Patrick Swayze?

Liberty Freedom and Justice for all

[txroadkill]

damnit, would the please give equal time to Farrah! I would much rather see Charlie's Angles clips.....

NOOOOOOOOOO

Shep pre-empts Bill O'!

[dforest]

No it isn’t understandable. He’s dead. Thats it.

Move along.....he was a pervert.

[parsifal]

Pedophile or not, it was over the top. “The Most Famous Man in the World.” C’mon, FOX. I went to the History Channel and FR.

BTW, check out youtube, “hitler nigerian email” if you need a good laugh.

parsy, who is still laughing hao.

[flaglady47]

I hate to tell you guys, but here comes another hour of it. O’Reilly’s hour is being replaced by, wow, more Shep! And more Michael Jackson! Aren’t you thrilled, like a real thriller. It’s probably going to be this way all nite long. All Michael all the time. Time to switch channels. I’ve had it.

[Cyber Liberty]

We’re so there.....Thanks!

[yield 2 the right]

Shep off FNC for now...The O’ Riley Factor now doing MJ death non-stop coverage....

[AustinBill]

Your mistake was turning on the TV and expecting to see actual news. That business died a long time ago. As the ad-based broadcast business model swirls the drain expect nothing but "infotainment" at best, and increasingly lurid sensationalism as the norm for any broadcast medium.

What is disappointing is how much cyber-ink this sort of stuff gets even on FR. It is reflective of the culture as a whole.

[ShandaLear]

You better turn off your TV, this isn’t going to end for days.

[kjam22]

They’ll find out he’s broke, died while having more cosmetic surgery, and Al Sharpton will be telling everyone how terrible that “the man” had stolen all of Michael’s money.

[slickfree]

Where is Joe Bob Briggs?
... or John Bloom, of "We are the Weird"
.... Michael Jackson gone on to his "Music Land".
Fox's Shep Smith is "crying over Michael" ... how sick?
My evening is "ruined" to listen to this crap all evening.

[hecht]

This si sick! I want to see the panel

[kempo]

Now that the MSM have their cameras pointed at the UCLA medical Center look for a for thousands to show up including trouble makers. Will we see upside down burning cars before the night is over? It wouldn’t surprise me.

[steelyourfaith]

Good grief, Shep remains seamlessly into The Factor time continuing on about Michael Jackson, while Cap & Tax and Obamacare get shelved.

[Vicki]

I switched over to the Black Entertainment network and nothing was there about Michael Jackson. They were just running a sitcom. Pretty surprised by that.

[Radix]

O’Reilly is now off for this creep’s obituary?

At least I have cable channels.

[hecht]

This is like SNL’s “ The Death of Buckwheat”

[HardStarboard]

Its all part of the ratings game.

Your fellow Americans would rather hear about a dead, bleached-out, dancing, pedophile than a tall, skinny mulatto that's about to grab $1,800+/year out of their pockets.

Never fear, the mulatto will be back on full-time, prime-time, tomorrow.

[tioga]

shep is mourning “the most famous man on planet earth”..........gag me.

[hecht]

Farrah Fawcett picked the wrong day to die

[WashStateGirl]

Not just Obamacare being covered up, what about that big Cap and Trade Energy Bill to be voted on in the House tomorrow that is going to screw us all really bad for 30 years? Nobody is talking about that at all. A conspiracy of deaths I say, to knock the real news off the tube. Death always comes in 3’s and there are still several hours to go today...

[HelloooClareece]

Sorry, you don’t understand the news business.

I thought the coverage of his trial was over the top but news of the death of the most recognizable man in the world is, indeed, news. There isn’t a single news outlet in the world who won’t cover this constantly for the next few days.

[UB355]

It’s after 8:00 PM EDT. Took over O’Reilly too.

[dforest]

He was not a man.

[LA Woman3]

Somewhere in South Carolina is a very happy Governor!

[John W]

Sounded like he was picking up at least some of the Fox Television Network as well.

[Gator113]

Agreed.... I am sick of it.

Now, again and again and again... “the most famous man on earth”.

[Radix]

Great point!

[dfwgator]

Farrah Fawcett picked the wrong day to die

Just like Mother Teresa.
