4. WepWesentative. Also an anti-gay slur.
There are no "accidents" at Faux News.

Disgusting. Murdoch/Ailes know no limits.

The overwhelming majority of FoxNews viewers are too stupid to notice it.

13. Not funny at all. I really wish all Dems would just boycott that station
and their affiliates. I would leave them to their own destruction. I hate those idiots.

21. easier said than done
my only exposure to Faux News is at the gym. THey have about 10 big screen TVs hanging on the wall, and they have the 3 news networks right next to each other (you have to plug in headphones for sound). The best treadmill happens to be in front of the Faux TV. I don't put volume on (that's what an ipod is for) but I do see their headlines and crawlers.

14. Actually, it's not funny.
It is an anti-gay stab at a Democratic Representative and it is definitely NOT funny.

19. Okay, so I get how its insulting to his speech impediment,
Edited on Sun Mar-15-09 09:25 PM by Veritas_et_Aequitas
but I honestly don't understand how its an anti-gay slur. I tried Googling it, but the most relavent page it came up with was this thread.

If its too offensive to post, could someone private me to clue me in?

26. It is a stereotype about gay men that many use as
a way to ridicule gay people. THAT is why it is offensive to gay people.

31. I've met no gay men that use a "W" sound for an "R".
Now, there are ssssssome who ussssse too many essssesss. The cure I use for that is to shut 'em up by kissing them or flipping them over and shoving their face in a pillow. I live in a condo. Can't deal with the neighbors and "YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!":shrug:

24. Kicking -- this needs more attention.
Nothing surprises me about Fox Noise anymore, but it is pretty shameful for anyone, no less a television channel, to make fun of someone's speech impediment.
