      I wish someone would cover up Glenn Beck, so no one would have to look at him on screen.

        Many of us were joking that Faux would blame Jackson's death on Obama; I can't believe they actually stepped up to the plate and figured out a way to link the two. Congrats Faux.

          I think the entire Fox News staff should be linked.

          At the wrists and ankles.

          On a chain gang.

            Careful. You'll feed that wingnut paranoia about the evil intentions of the fascist-socialist-Muslim-loving Obama cabal.

              It doesn't need me to feed it. Beck et. al. throw it plenty of raw meat every day.

      Is a chyron writer a separate paid position at Fox? I picture them in a room with an IV taped to them pumping psychotropic drugs into their indelicately imbalanced craniums.
