Hilarious: Daily Show Looks At 24 Hours of Fox News (and random DS bumps) MET

[mjah]

The 24 hours in question just happen to be Obama's first day in office. And Fox News, perhaps to overcompensate by a factor of 37 for CNN's giddiness, seems to have gone completely off the deep end.

I don't usually start threads like this one, but this is just too good to pass up. Jon Stewart and company really nail it:

"If you don't stick to your values when they're being tested, they're not values. They're hobbies."

This will only make Fox News look that much better to the minority of the country that believes in this stuff. The far left will probably go off the deep end over it. But given that most voters get their news from a mix of sources or (if they're really smart) turn off Fox News completely, four years of this Fantasyland nonsense will just marginalize the far right even more. I wonder that will mean for future elections.

Anyway, enjoy the clip.

Good stuff. The hypocrisy is stunning.

And the piece dovetails nicely with the "Obama is NOT my President" tailgate post from a couple of days ago.

That is hilarious!!!!!!!!!!

Love the clip thanks!

I know it was just a clip of his interview, but Rush's racist butt should be removed from the air for that comment.

As well as the Gitmo thread going on right now.

The part in the middle where he's talking about values is perfect.

Rush doesn't understand people want him to succeed because they can't take much more of this economy. He has no economic problems. Definitely a racist, philly does suck though.

thank God the writers are back because without them John Stewart was horrible. but this did have me laughing last night and made me realize that Fox News is a ****ing joke.

[GibbsFactor]

I didn't find that too funny.

Now, him making fun of Fox for keeping so much tab on Bush Tuesday was pretty good.

Hmm, I'm gonna dig up that old thread on what is the Daily Show going to do now that Obama is president.

I don't agree with Limbaugh in this instance, but why do you say he should be removed from the air?

Nah. Rush is fully entitled to be a horrible and subtly racist demogogue all he wants. He has free speech rights the same as the rest of us.

[BigMike619]

unfortunately there is an audience for Rush. Some people listen to him and FULLY agree with him. you cant kick him off the air just because he is a dumbass and a racist. the radio station could but we wouldnt get anywhere.

[Buford]

That was too funny.

Some of those folks are nuts.

[stwasm]

Oh, those silly Faux News folks!

[Hooper]

They missed the best part.
