You forgot Muslim, Atheist, Liberal, Fascist, and video game violent in there as well. Still though, a mouthful to actually attempt to say without losing a few braincells.TheDist said:Oh my pedophilic-communist-neo nazzi-rapist Terrorists are *everywhere*.

You should be very concerned that the citizens of that country are being sold such bullshit as actual news, and that these citizens then have a say in the next elections, which like it or not, can also impact you in some way.Ulquiorra4sama said:I'm so glad i live in Norway.

Not that any other channel is much better. The history channel, discovery channel, etc aren't completely factual. At this point the only thing I watch is cooking for new ideas.
Nah, invasions tend to make things worse. But if you want to do something, just do something like this: find a story that makes no sense, share it somewhere to encourage discussion that points out why the story fails, repeat.CaseySmith said:thethingthatlurks said:But you should be annoyed, especially as someone not intimately connected to American society.

Yeah, but what do we do? Attempt to get our governments to launch a united European invasion of America, to purge the news stations?
The real problem is: because there are far too many stupid people, news stations won't get ratings from REAL stories that make sense; they just want sensationalism. They want big wacky stories.
But I must say, you most certainly can tell when you're talking to an American who watches Faux News; lack of logic and usually can't think, they just state stories from their beloved news network as gospel... Reminds me of something else: religious belief...

A lot of people already call it the "Hitler Channel". It indicates the overuse of WWII programming while at the same time keeping the HC initials.AceAngel said:Tell me about, I sometimes feel History Channel should be called WW2 Channel...
That's true, I remember writing an article about an MMO that was available for EU and SEA, but not NA, yet somehow it was tagged for deletion (even with links and all).Ironic Pirate said:Or the Hitler Channel.AceAngel said:Tell me about, I sometimes feel History Channel should be called WW2 Channel...Lightslei said:Because too many stupid people believe the garbage they roll out daily.AceAngel said:Why won't FoxNews die?

Goddamn it Fox, it's fucking Wikipedia.
I have a fetish, and they have a lockdown on the article about it, as soon as more information is added it's deleted, and it's get as short and unhelpful as possible. Why? Because wikipedia doesn't like that fetish. I'm assuming this carries over for pedophilia.
