 		My god you guys actually flamed them with emails?!?! Don't you know what happens when people with a history of hacking do that?! They do a special bulletin on us and we get bad publicity. I say we just spam their forums instead.

God I hope someone understood all the internet references I made just there. A few keywords to spark your memory: 4chab, anonymous, internet hate machine, hackers on steroids.

Ring a bell anyone?

There are good things on FOX news. The debates on Hannity and Colmes are hysterical sometimes.

I even watch CNN sometimes. I believe in getting all sides of the issue. You're guaranteed a liberal viewpoint on CNN and a conservative one on FOX. Expand your mind! Get both sides of the story and make up your own mind. You can allways turn the channel.

And this game is out of hand. Think I'll turn the channel. Shows why we need a college football playoff instead of this bowl crap

I was reading a transcript of one of the H&C interviews from earlier this year today - you know, the one where everyone except Colmes, even the panel 'liberal', Pat Caddell, supported Anne Coulter for calling Democrat John Edwards a "faggot", by saying she had meant it as a joke (how that works, I don't know), and that she used the word "faggot" in the correct context (I also fail to see how that works). That was hilarity, in a painful kind of way - especially when they all kicked Colmes' arse.

I like The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. That's fun news.

Oh, in case you don't know the anonymous/hackers on steroids thing, here's a quote from http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NewMediaAreEvil -

Quote:
his Fox News "special report" purports to reveal the activities of a gang of "hackers on steroids" called Anonymous who destroy the lives of MySpace users, make death threats, and threaten to blow up stadiums. In fact, the "anonymous" in question is simply the default login to most Imageboards (the so-called "secret websites" and "underground hacker sites"). The "report" includes a random clip of a truck blowing up, apparently as a "demonstration" and a signal that You Can Panic Now. The "anonymous insider" is clearly in on the gag; note use of 4chan Catch Phrases like "Anonymous does not forgive". The mention of "like a real-life video game" earns extra New Media Are Evil points.

* Note that this followed an incident where a shell script was discovered with FTP login information in an root image directory that had been left completely open on Fox's site, exposing contact information for over a million people; hilarity ensued. Not that the "report" said anything about that.


Personally, I'm considering writing an email. Maybe I'll write one to Bill O'Reilly. Does he still have a show at Fox? Because if we all emailed him, his reply would be FUN. Or maybe Hannity, failing O'Reilly.

I'm going to rein myself back in now. Get back in my cage.

 		Oh my Bacon.

I have now laughed out loud for the first time on this board since the night with I LOVE PONIES.

That's some funny stuff, right there.

I'd love to hear O'Reilly's response to your e-mail. I swear that man is going to have a stroke on-air. Count on it.

 		How pathetic do you have to be to appear on camera, talk about how a MONSTER movie is, in a way, mocking (couldn't come up with a word for parody) 9/11? Now, I know that a LOT of people died on that day, and those who family or friends are still dealing with the losses. I feel very bad for those people. But honestly, that woman needs to see the trailers, commercials, and actually LOOK at the poster. She also needs to see the movie. She supposedly "saw" the poster. She needs to realize that the producers (J.J. Abrams) didn't purposely mean for this to relate to 9/11.

My two cents.

Thank you, I'm hear til Tuesday. Try the veal.

I'm actually surprised someone found that funny. Nevertheless...when does O'Reilly go to air? How many hours away? We must flood his inbox with these emails. For great justice!!!

On January 2nd, you had a woman whose son perished in the 9/11 attacks speaking on how the movie "Cloverfield" parodied the images & the events that occured on said day. I strongly disagree about such statements. This is a MONSTER movie, not a movie about terrorism caused my man or any extremists, but by a MONSTER, a work of FICTION. This movie is about the monster's impact on NYC, it just so happens that it took the SOL's head an used it for a bowling ball, no offense expressed, and shows the point of view of 5 characters who are in NYC during the monster's rampage. Seriously, do you really expect a monster to NOT destroy half the city and leave disaster in its wake?

I'd like to point out that I mean no offense to the woman that was interviewed, she was just misinformed and she was trouted for it. I express my sympathy to her & her family for the pain they had to endure on 9/11.


Dear Puerto-Rican/Hispanic Inevitable Drain on American Society,

We received your email, and were mildly surprised you could write, we thought all you 'Ricans were still swinging from tree to tree down on that little island of yours. What a surprise for all of us. Since we're all a pack of ignorant right-wing racist assholes, we totally thought there was no such thing as even the internet on your primitive island.

Anyway, we wanted to respond to your letter about the 9/11 - Cloverfield connection and we would like to kindly say: We don't fucking care.

Signed,

Fox News

 		The interview aired on "Your World with Neal Cavuto". Anyone wishing to express their concerns should send an e-mail to cavutoSPLATfoxnews.com. At the end of his daily program, he will read a few e-mails regarding his program from the previous day.

Cavuto is the Fox News business analyst and his program is primarily business related (stocks, bonds, market analysis, etc)...don't know how this topic is business related, but hey, slow news day I guess.

I watched the link and to be fair (I'm paraphrasing), he did ask Ms. Hoagland what if this is nothing more then a monster destroying Manhattan, and wouldn't this be the result?

It was also reported the lady's son died on United 93…I didn't hear her complain about that movie in the interview.
