Fox News: The Plastic Cable News Network

All one has to do is watch one news program on their network and you see them all.  Both their male and female host reports are a mirror image of negative comment about the President and his policies.  How is it that one network can hire so many plastic people that allow themselves to be used in that manner.

Most of their female host are attractive and the camera angle makes sure the viewers see a lot of legs.  I guess Fox News thinks they can be plastic and do what the men do, abandon facts to fit the storyline of negative comments and out right falsehoods.

The network has a large viewer base we are told that are faithful.  This writer does not doubt that but why do the network and its hosts enjoy telling stories that they know are false to their faithful viewer base.  It is some thing the faithful base should be concerned about.

I'm reminded of a book written by a Fox News employee who left the network and said in the book the producers at Fox during the George W. Bush administration would never allow any thing negative be said concerning Bush or his administration on the network.  "Fair and Balanced?"  The people at Fox News knows its a crock.

America was not built on fear or falsehoods but at Fox it is their staple.  The Benghazi scandal is not a scandal: the ACA's death panels and other fear related stories about the Act do not exists:  the list goes on and on and every day there is a new Obama scandal that is created to invoke fear in Fox's viewing audience.  And make no mistake there will be many more fear related talk between the November congressional elections and the Presidental elections of 2016.

The republicans in congress and Fox News have become "A band of brothers" who are incapable of dealing with the truth and facts.  Our fore fathers who built America would never have accepted the ideology of either one.
