I guess enough time has passed since Fox’s disastrous and hideously un-funny attempt to produce a right-wing “Daily Show“, so they’re trying to co-opt another successful progressive media formula with their own version of the Huffington Post. Behold “Bizarro Huffington Post”:
Just what the world’s been waiting for: a clearinghouse for news stories, videos and opinion about liberal bias, the culture wars, and the ongoing “leftist” romance with Islamic Jihad. Bizarro-News and BIzarro-Views in the Bizarro-World of Wingnuttery, Bizarro-HuffPo!
Would it be too strenuous an exercise for them to come up with an original idea once in awhile? Or even just “once”?

Yikes! But imitation is the highest form of flattery… or in the case of Fox, flatulence.

It’s so tragi-comic, one would think that this is a product of The Onion and not Fox news. In fact the whole website looks like The Onion, come to that.
There are more pressing issues today and they’re spinning their wheels on ice-cream socials and other trivial matters?
Talk radio and CFRB radio in particular is like this Foxnation silliness. Every little trivial issue and little of any meaning to us Canadians unless it’s from the “right” prespective.
There’s a word for this: tragicomic.
Q – Yep, Keith & Rachel get a thumbs-up from me too.
Fox is good for entertainment value, but that’s about it. News? Ah, I think not.
Torontonian – It is like something out of the Onion, isn’t it
I think their issue with the ice cream is it’s more nanny statism — which they’ve actually got a point, it is. But who cares??? This is news? D’oh!
