Moving up or moving down?

“I was happy stripping at Skanks”, said exotic dancer, Trixie McRove, “but when the tips, and customers, started shrinking, I had to look for something else to pay the rent. That’s when I heard about Fox News holding a job fair down at Munchies”.

I’m all for people looking for new opportunities to make a buck and in an economic downturn, most will have to. But this story from Steve Young, shows a few things. Strippers looking to move into other career paths, and a media company hiring strippers not for their “talents” to improve their ratings.

“We figure that a lot of our demographic – 67 and over white males – frequent these gentleman relief centers”, said one FOX human resources VP. “There’s an untapped talent pool at these clubs and we plan to tap it for all it’s worth. And then we might even hire them”.

Just goes to show you where the qualifications for FOX lay with impressing the viewers eyes and not with enticing them by education, intelligence or journalistic ability. The channel is of course for entertainment and not a pillar of journalistic integrity.

Yeasty, a Bakersfield stripper. “Being an expert on Fox News isn’t much different from being a lap dancer. Five minutes of making them believe you care about them and you’re done.” Yes, so true Yeasty, so true.

Glenn beck is an inauthentic asshole

I wasn’t even going to comment on this hack. I had written a blog a few weeks back about this cry baby, erased it and then I had to go and open the Times this weekend and read their story on Fox News’s Mad, Apocalyptic, Tearful Rising Star. It comments on the spectacular rise to popularity at an unpopular time slot on Fox (5 pm) for a comedian who was fired from CNN to a “preacher” of entertainment politics.

I find it grossly ironic Glenn has regular segments titled “Constitution Under Attack” and “Economic Apocalypse,” when both basis for such discussions are rooted during the entire and last year respectively of W Bush presidency. His, Rush’s, and Hannity’s “inciting [of] rhetoric” as Jeffrey Jones of Old Dominion University puts it, has certainly done more for the conservative base than any of the real (or fake *cough* Palin) leaders of the GOP. It’s such popularity that I too am “mad as hell” more at the audience of these puppets who get their thought, talking points and even political philosophy from talking heads explicitly and apply backwards reasoning to their choices for leaders based on these comedians of leadership.

Here’s a recient clip of this rodeo clown going on about his worrisome love for this country and fake crying as he tries to get his viewers pulled in. He’s definitely touching something, it’s not a passion nerve though:

Shep Smith on Fox also has some great comments about this guy: “We love the program [because it’s on Fox] but we don’t listen to it”:



Beck continually says ‘if you take what I say as gospel, you’re an idiot’ and that sir might accurately characterize the 1.2 million people that tune into you daily to listen. Glenn stay in your fear chamber, where you feel safest and you can’t infect normal Americans with your evangelical bull shit.

UPDATE: Maybe Colbert Says this better:
