Related: About this forumTYT: Hilarious Breakdown Of 'The Five' On Fox News (epic DUMB about Pakistan)
"On today's edition of Fox News' The Five co-host Eric Bolling made a not-so-veiled threat of coercion against Pakistan, remarking that perhaps it's time America cuts off all foreign aid to the country and send a few drones over their embassy presumably to scare them. Bolling brought up the country when discussing the news that a Pakistani minister reportedly offered a $100,000 bounty to find the filmmaker behind Innocence of Muslims...".* Cenk Uygur and (producer) Dave Koller discuss on The Young Turks.

Your scholarly work on the cuban missile crisis has really established your name in the foreign policy field.

Belligerent jingoism, nonstop, gets tiring.

(5,106 posts)7. Yeah, and Fox specializes in such women. ( I do Not include Coulter in the "hot" category).
Also SHE spreads her vileness among other networks which should have better sense.

(8,267 posts)5. Yeah, right...
It's Ms. Perino's 'hotness' that's relevant here.

(12,882 posts)8. You're right, of course.
Thing is - FOX realizes the value of legs and cleavage in the delivery of their "news". It's a facet of the equation that shouldn't be discounted when assessing their overall approach to feeding their dimwitted audience.

(8,267 posts)10. hmm...
FOX realizes the value of legs and cleavage in the delivery of their "news".
That sexism is the basic underpinning of most of our visual media is a well documented fact. Would that liberals and members of this website could recognize how this diminishes us all.
Plucketeer
(12,882 posts)11. Sure
But take note - if there's a female commentator on one of FOX's shows, you're likely gonna get to look at her legs. Which other news outlet does that with regularity?

(39,909 posts)9. I can't see or hear Dana Perino without being reminded of this poor girl:
The young girl in the above video probably has a valid excuse....
Sheltered life?
Stage fright?
Youth and Inexperience?
Lack of Role Models and Mentors?
Dana Perino has NONE of those excuses.
She is ignorant by choice,
and projects ignorance by choice.
