I've always said Fox News would be watchable if you added a laugh track.

I'm not screaming it anonymously. I have no problem saying "f**k FOX" as onymously as possible.

I watch Fox news for laughs.. but I find myself cringing more often than not. Hannity could not be described better than, "weasel."

Pretty sure he won't reply. Fox comes after Jon all the time; why acknowledge this attack when he can just sit back and wait for them to f**k up again?
