    The press prepares to exploit a story! This isn’t news, is it?

    Isn’t that how Fox got started?

    The first thing they’ll do is interview the ‘victims’. That should be interesting.

    Thirdguy - Fox got its start [and its current status as the most watched news program] as an alternative to the mass media marching in liberal lockstep to their socialist nirvana.

    the words “fox news” have recently been adopted at comedy central as a workable substitute for saying “f you” without getting bleeped. works for me.

    x_Tech, I just have to take that all the way…

    “Have loaf, will travel,” reads the card of a man, A knight without rye bread in a mime-full land. His “Lunchmeat for hire,” meets the calling wind, A soldier against street art is a man called Palladin. Palladin, Palladin, olives will roll, Palladin, Palladin, sliced thin or whole…

    Thirdguy - I seldom listen to TV or radio news, so I’ve never heard these guys speak. I get my info from print and online, and I don’t like Kool-Aid. It just gets tiresome hearing people blame Fox and/or Bush for all the problems of the world.

    As for my phraseology, hell, I thought it was rather catchy. Others may disagree.

    Guess I mistimed it; the big reveal will be tomorrow! ~~~~~~~~~~ Fox “News” was created by Rupert Murdoch for the sole purpose of disseminating right-wing propaganda in the form of news; the “reporters” are under orders to put a pro-conservative spin on all the stories, even if they have to change some of the details to do it. That is why they are often called the Faux News Channel.

    Thirdguy, et. al., I challenge you to watch The O’Reilly Factor for one month, and you will change your mind. I used to have the same mindset as you until someone made the challenge to me. I don’t always agree with some of the pundits, but they do present both sides and there are some lively, but cordial, debates.

    Aw, you guys are way too serious! The absurdity of this strip is it’s strong suit. A rabbit & whatever kinda animal it is are fishing & mimes are getting beat up with an olive loaf. Children run the local newspaper. It doesn’t get any better than this!

    SherlockTroll - got a cite for that preposterous statement? I mean an objective source; some screed from one of your fellow nutroots at the Daily Kook won’t do.
