no media person blasted fox news for being outrageous and inappropriate for the "terrorist fist jab", or the muslim misattributions, or the spurious connections to "american terrorists", or any of that.
not a single word was said outside the crazy-liberal-blogisphere.
but then it appears in a parody on the new yorker cover, and they can't stop taking righteous stands.
there can not be any greater evidence of the fox accomodating dna of the media. any outrage can be repeated endlessly on fox - they are expected to do it. and the effective outrages can become conventional wisdom. the media treats fox like a farm league for political hatchet messaging. and if fox can get a lie out there that's unavoidable, the media will bring the absurdity to the big time.
god, i wish we had a thinking media.
