Fox News needs to hire Keith Olberman.
Shut up. Hear me out:
For ages, the O has been spouting off on a network that either dittoed what he said or at least ignored it.
We need to have a couple half hours a day where Keith is on Fox, yammering away, while a constant scroll under the screen explains the truth for viewers. This does a couple things: it eliminates, once and for all, the argument that Fox doesn’t provide opposing viewpoints, and it gives people the opportunity to watch people who have actual intellect dissect his fatuous rants for all they are.

With a laugh track?
Unquestionably.
I haven’t watched Fox for ages, and I don’t plan to start.
But that just might do the trick.
Dammit Og, now I feel dirty just thinking about it!
As clarification, I have nothing against Fox. They’re fine, for what they do.
I just despise television.
Gotcha on both counts, Randy.
Not a big fan of the boob tube either.
Damn straight!
This could be a very fun show. Popcorn and beer sales should spike accordingly. Great idea Og!
Better’n’ pro wrestling!
Fox has Bradshaw on the radio around here. That is enough left BS for my taste. They don’t need anymore.
It would bring new meaning to fair and balanced however.
Nathan~! watch your language.
That’s pro rasslin.
How about letting Olby and Beck go at each other with brickbats?
Once again og, you’re thinking outa the box.
Won’t fly. Having Alan Colmes there a few years ago didn’t do much for Fox’s ratings, and the Hannity show is far more watched than it was with Commie sitting beside him.
Fox grew out of that “need” to be “fair and balanced”, even though they might still use the term occasionally.
Fox has accepted themselves as the conservative voice now, and they have no need AND no place for Olbermann.
The teevee is only used for NFL and MLB. All else is chit.
Alan colmes was an idiot, and Fox hired him to be a foil for Hannity. I’m talking about giving shitforbrains his own show. This would do a couple things:
1: All the rabid assholes that watch him now would switch on Fox News. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?
2: A scroll under the screen (Think closed captioning)would expose his bullshit for what it is, and
3: the rest of the channel could abuse him at will. I figure he’d last three days before quitting in a fit of pique.
