SNL Mocks Fox News' Election Coverage

November 09, 2009 2:32 pm ET by Karl Frisch

I wrote last week about how media conservatives just aren’t that good when it comes to election analysis – in fact they pretty much suck.

This weekend Saturday Night Live did a send-up of Fox News' off-year election night coverage that is well worth a watch.  Jason Sudeikis' Glenn Beck impersonation isn't quite as good as what The Daily Show's Jon Stewart offered up last week, but it's pretty funny all the same.

      I personally don't think any of those clowns at Faux deserve the attention whether positive or negative. They are a joke as are anyone who watches them. Nothing anyone says or does is going to change the minds of these people. They are all hopeless.

        But if someone who is watching them can see the absurdity for what it is just one time, and stop watching, that's why it needs coverage.
