Fox News: We take the news seriously!! Honest!

While sitting in a fast food restaurant, eating a super early dinner because I felt like smoking hookah and well, it sucks to smoke without a full stomach, they had the TVs set to Fox News Channel. Well after roughly two minutes spent on the Democratic National Committee trying to figure out what the hell to do with the moron Democrats in Florida and Michigan (really, what the fuck did they achieve by pulling the bullshit they pulled?), they spent more time discussing the fashion of the candidates and their spouses (except Bill Clinton).

Honestly, how the hell does that count as news and/or anything resembling information? I know the majority of Fox News' viewers are generally dim people, and maybe some of them are dense enough to honestly care about the fact John McCain dresses like a a college professor from Norway, but is this news really worth discussing more than an actual real news story?

They even had a fucking expert. I mean seriously. Who the fuck is an expert on presidential campaign fashion? Who goes to school and says "one day I want to critique politicians on their wardrobes, not their policies?" And how the hell does Fox News find these people? Is there a posting on Craigslist?

The worst thing is whatever the hell show was airing this (it might have been Neil Cavuto's show considering the time, but I didn't see that Easter Island headed dolt talking, just some disturbingly over-makeup-ed woman) is probably viewed more than serious news shows on other cable networks like... well... shit there's no such thing anymore (and liberals, don't give me that Countdown crap, it's the O'Reilly Factor if it was being broadcast in Caracas, Venezuela).
