when has fox news said anything that wasnt funny/pointless?

clearly canada is better than us, after all they're on top.

What bunch of idiots.. the fact that Fox News is even allowed to be a major news source is an embarrassment to the world of journalism and to the US in general. I think they should all be round up and shot. I don't need to count how many times they've pulled this garbage.

I don't have a single friend or acquaintance who likes Fox News because I don't want to be associated with that kind of person.

While at the same time keeping a broad and untainted perspective? I don't know just how much you know about the US firsthand, but trying to classify Americans as a whole is just as disgustingly oversimplified as judging Europeans as a whole, though I'd argue the latter is more justified in some senses. Were you speaking of Americans as a whole? I find that there are very few things all Americans have in common.

Having friends in the military, this is slightly upsetting. But it's Faux News, what else do you expect?

It is a hoax. Its not real. First of all that guy would've been fired on the spot for even talking like that on any news station. Oh and if anyone wants to disagree, look at the freaking name of the video. Oh and if that other video is real then the Canadian ambassador is retarded.

The video on YT was put up by a Canadian citizen who apparently wasn't aware that Red Eye is a satirical talk show, which means it wasn't a hoax, per se. However, regardless of the show's intent, the usage of sensitive topics as comedic material is still hardly justified, especially when referring to foreign parties. The media ought to know where to draw the line. But hey...it's Fox News. What do you expect?

Yeah it's fake. I mean seriously one of the guys on that show is on SNL isn't he? Pretty dead giveaway.

But honestly how is it acceptable to have a comedy show on Fox News that reports on the same topics but just failing at being funny while they do it? It's not like MSNBC (or whoever the liberal media is idk) runs the daily show at 3am.

Give me a break it's RED EYE, they are on late at night, and are not to be taken seriously.. Blown way out of proportion. They don't reflect the thoughts of the vast majority of Americans, anyone who makes that claim is the offensive one.

It's ridiculous how many people are actually whining about this. Pitching a fit about something a comedy show said about Canada is something a bitter old woman would do when she's not changing cat litter.

ps i'm canadian

Seemed pretty accurate to me.

**customstuff** · 03-25-2009, 04:29 PM

LOL, this was on my news yesterday! But seriously, that is really annoying to hear since barely anything they're saying is true.
