I love how Fox insists that it isn't the media.

I'll take CNN over Faux News any day.

How does FNC "insists that it isn't the media" ?

I like Fox News but I think Nickelodeon does a better job at being funny and kiddie.

At least Anderson didn't have to get a facelift with his new job.

Watching Faux News is like viewing a hard-core porn film. In both cases, you want to take a hot shower and scrub with a wire brush.

I'll watch Anderson Cooper over Greta anyday.

"How does FNC 'insist that it isn't the media?'"
By more or less repeating that very phrase. FNC is quick to jump on "the media" for overreporting stories (like Terrel Owens, who FNC covered while complaining that other networks were covering him too much) or playing political favorites as if they weren't financed by an ultraconservative plutocrat and one of the most popular news outlets in the country.
For some reason FNC still thinks it's some outsider gadfly whose fancy graphics packages and dramatic anchorpeople don't make it as stupid and hokey as every other 24-hour news outlet. "The media," in their view, is simply anyone who isn't them, or anyone who disagrees with them about anything. My heart bleeds.

Wow, that's pretty harsh for media advertising, don't you think?
Though I can see how Fox's core audience would be thrilled to see an ad wherein Cooper was compared to Paris Hilton.

This is what happens with 24hr news. They run out of things to report, so it has become entertainment instead of reporting the news.

very poor taste in advertising - it only called more attention to her face lift

FoxNews is fraud. You should report it to the Federal Trade Commission as a fraudulent network that lies, and pretends to be "news".
If this were Kraft foods product and the ingredients weren't what the package said, "news", then you'd have the FTC and the FDA all up on them for fraud and mislabeling.
FoxNews is indeed the device of the neo-con movement, and an insult to conservative americans and others alike.
FauxNews is its real name.

all who've posted comments about Greta's facelift just prove the point. You're all about style over substance. have any of you ever watched her show?
Posted by: jason | Feb 2, 2007 2:07:39 PM
If it was not about style over substance , then she would not need a face lift. IDIOT!

I just have one question...what is Drew Barrymore doing on Fox News? Has her agent seen this? I hope she's getting fair (and balanced) compensation...
Posted by: dunebug | Feb 2, 2007 7:41:00 PM
Honestly, this is the kind of thing I would think would piss Greta off but good -- airbrushing her photo to make her look younger. Greta, what gives? How can you work with these clowns?
Posted by: dunebug | Feb 2, 2007 7:45:17 PM
Ew, it says, "and he still gets beat EVERY NIGHT BY..."
The poor grammar just adds to the sense that this ad is low class.
