FNC = Court TV.

Look at coverage today of the "airplane" and the "anna". Their aviation expert was an idiot. Some landing gear naturally rotates the front wheels 90 degrees when it retracts or deploys. None of the experts got it. BUT when it comes to these crappy court cases (anna) the bimbos (including Bill-John-Boy-Hemmer) sure have plenty to say.

I think FNC needs to hire science grads instead of lawyers for info babes, producers and writers.

I don't think that is a laugh track. From my understanding they had a live audience. The audience is a little too overenthusiastic though.

Secondly, I have heard that the obama skit that is on youtube is actually one of the least funny of all the skits, so I am going to give it a chance. Even if it isn't all that funny to begin with I would support it and give it a chance to grow.

Finally, everyone keeps saying this is a rip off of the daily show. Surnow has compared it to the daily show in that it is a satire, but the Daily Show is hardly original. The whole daily show concept has been done before many times by shows like Saturday Night live.

I have called and informed FoxNews that I will definitely NOT be watching their new 1/2 hour "comedy" news show in protest against their trying to cram news about that slut Anna Nichole down my throat 24/7 in every other hour of the day.

I find it absolutely disgusting that FNC thinks that ANS is what conservative America truly needs to hear about in the age of the GWOT. Especially when the Dhimmicrats are treasonously trying to lose the war in Iraq.

I'm just too fed up with FNC, and especially Sean Hannity, to give them my support any longer.
I don't know where else to turn for news on TV, but until FNC changes its ways and programs for what America NEEDS to know, instead of what they think will give them ratings, I simply will not watch.
