... where the mom walks past the kids' haunted room? She knows she shouldn't open the door, but does anyway and sees ghoulish things flying everywhere.....
Well, I turned on Fox & Friends this morning just to see how they're covering things ...and I feel like the poltergeist mom. Frightening alternate universe. Impeachment, the mideast "peace" plan, election -- they served up a buffet of bullshit.
MSNBC may report from a certain perspective, but it's still based in reality. I can see why Fox News viewers are so warped. I recognized all the talking points from Twitter and FB fights.
