Ad hominem.@argythree, Jeffrey does have a less child-like head/neck/shoulder shape now.(And Danae has those teeny little legs.)

Hey, don’t knock it, Jeffrey. It “works” very well for Fox Spews. (Well, for its viewers who actually believe their crap.)

I have often wondered how people know some news channel is evil is bad even though they claim to have never watched it.

News hanging by cable; or being hanged by cable. But that is only Jeffrey’s conclusion. What is Danae’s source?

since 6 companies own all the media, money is their only motive, and Faux Lies know how to sell better than anyone else. Facts? what need is there for facts in Faux Lies Media

Abaddon Consortium is book one of the Abaddon Trilogy by Adam Decker. It’s now on my reading list. Thank you Wiley.

You know, I don’t mind it so much that Fox News literally makes up, and propagates lies…But the reason they do it is to scare people and make them paranoid, so they get on each others nerves, and act stupid…That’s what I hate about it….

BTW, thanks for the edification, Mr. Miller….I may have to peruse my local library…..

News isn’t really journalism any more. However, survey after survey points out that Fox News is watched by more people and considered reliable by more people than any other cable news source.

That old guy Harlan Ellison (around my age) used to rant about people calling this type of fiction ‘skifeee’.-But then, Harlan ranted about a lot of things back in the day…

I think Danee has a crush on Jeffery. She refers to him as “geek” instead of “booger brain.”
Varnes over 9 years ago
dflak, oh yeah, they’re future lovers……Just not in our lifetime….Wiley will see to that…..
