    Totally awesome. Unfortunately people that watch the "news" are looking for entertainment, so they don't put the smartest people on television.

    Yeah I know Fox has an agenda but that was forced even by their standards.

    ... well maybe not Glenn Beck standards..

    **** you guys. The co host was hot enough for me to keep watching.

    Who cares if the guy was a dumb**** and can't comprehend rudimentary concepts.

    He talks so slow and so simply, and the host still says he's confusing viewers. I guess Fox does know its demographic, at least.

    Stop slandering Al Jazeera.

    Fox News is for the mentally challenged. Al Jazeera, on the other hand, is for hairy Arabs.

    Redundancy check... Passed.

    The terms "Arab" and "Hairy" are synonymous.

    Basically anyone in that region is extremely hairy...

    You guys are killing me! I guess it wouldn't help any to mention that I once knew a Greek chick (intimately) who was very hairy, but in all the right places? I had no complaints, gentlemen. :-D-

    There are no right places to be very hairy.

    But I guess Deckard was born in the 19th century and things were different back then.

    It's clear that the newsmen on Fox in these examples are more interested in sensationalizing the news and stories and not in genuine debate on issues. Nye is taking it seriously, not getting angry, and being way too logical in a way that undermines sensationalizing.

    Is this Fox's fault? No. You know what, viewers get what they want. And it's not just true for Fox (although Fox is borderline National Enquirer) but elements are in the other networks as well.

    Irene was definitely sensationalized.

    When will people wise up?

    I'll admit, I don't know why people are annoyed that Irene wasn't as damaging as everyone feared - it reminds me of people I know who said they weren't going to evacuate Houston after the giant disaster that was Rita, and those people are idiots. Especially considering that the hurricane was going to hit a place that isn't used to having hurricanes frequently, and so it becomes very important to make sure that the people in the north need to get the hell off the beach, as Governor Christie observed. Better that the hurricane is overhyped and nothing happens as opposed to the opposite.
