Do you remember the montage of photos fellow DU'er Danascot posted a few days ago? It was a "monolith" of captioned quotes from various Fox News shows that revealed the propaganda they've been belching out over the years. So I turned it into a video. The original "monolith" can be seen here:

I'm presently working on a video that features Fox News viewers. :evilgrin:

1. Shameful!
Fox Noise is nothing but a Neo-Nazi propaganda network.

7. When I've checked out Faux news all I see is cheap, poorly done
salacious reporting.  They always make sure the women sit with
their legs crossed and skirts/dresses midway up their thighs. 
Cheap ploy, but I guess that's for the knuckle-scrapers.  I
did see them
display themselves as the Fox Nation.  All they do is spew
poison.  One more thing I would add to this fabulous montage,
is the photo of McCain with a "D" after his name!! 
They are heinous and evil!

14. What's the point of this?
It has no meaning - just a slideshow with captions that don't really explain anything
unless you already subcribe to the idea that fuax news is a meaningless news show that just caters to individuals
who share the same point of view. To them it doesn't matter if fox news lies, or stretches the facts.

15. I wouldn't put it quite that way
To call their broadcasts "reporting" does a disservice to journalism.

They are a propaganda station in the vein of Göbbels and his Großdeutscher Rundfunk.
