Threatened Boycott of Fox By O'Reilly Forces Murdoch To Pull The Plug

Saying only that "The Imus matter forced us to take a second look at the crap we've been spewing at America," News Corp head honcho, Rupert Murdoch revealed that, "Bill O'Reilly, as he always does, lead the righteous surge."

"Bill came up to me and promised that if Fox continued to broadcast his racist, sexist and hate-filled bullshit , he would refuse to show up for work," said Murdoch. "That took balls, but I wouldn't expect anything less from Bill. I mean, have you ever seen his balls. They're huge."

With O'Reilly, John Gibson, Sean Whatshisface, Neal Cavuto, that insufferably, witless crew at Fox and Friends and Fox-irregulars, Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter banned from appearing, FOX President, Roger Ailes, said that FoxNews will be cancel every show but what Ailes is calling "And Colmes."

offensive programming

one person's trash is another's treasure...

frankly, i can't stand imus, o'reilly, hannity, that blonde twit wassernamerepublicanshill...so i don't watch or tune in to them. bad programing in my mind, but not to others. let the market honestly do its job, not censorcism of thought. when we as a people choose not to roll in the gutter of hate and race/sexism, programing on the airwaves will eventually catch up.

spin

Indeed, this sounds like a spin, take something bad and turn it into something good by swallowing a few more hypocriseeds.

Satire?

I believe this article to be satirical.

A missing ingredient

In order for something to be satirical, it has to be based on some truth. Since this piece relies on bald-faced lies about FNC, it doesn't qualify as satire.
