"I wonder why FoxNews reported this and CNN didn't? (Although I only searched CNN's front page for "Castro", maybe it's buried somewhere else) "

I wanted to respond

WHAT ABOUT THIS SWEET JACKET?

3/29/2010 2:59:21 PM

This didn't deserve it's own thread and the last clip I saw of her was from Fox News so I'll ask it here.

Is Victoria Jackson doing some kind of spoof/long-term comedy gag? Or does she actually believe the stuff she says and only sounds ridiculous because of her voice, her attire, and, well, the words coming out of her mouth?

Honest curiosity here.

3/30/2010 8:47:56 AM

It seems to be real. I was pointed to her website before the election and she was all gung-ho about Anti-Christ this and Hilter-that.
Julia Sweeny has also commented on her, about how crazy she because since they both left SNL.

now why any media outlet would choose to talk to her or get her "official opinion" on anything, though, is beyond me. What exactly was she talking about on Fox?

The Tea Party, and how Obama is a Communist and she knows that Progressive is just a new word for Communist because, and I'm not even making this up, she's learned well from what the teacher Glenn Beck has taught.

This is why I have doubts at all, because the P.O.V. just seems so over-the-top.

53 Cars Towed From UCF During Glenn Beck Event


http://www.wftv.com/news/22999143/detail.html

A fraternity at UCF apparently put up a free parking sign at their lot for a Glenn Beck event then had all of the cars towed during said event.

[Edited on March 31, 2010 at 5:23 PM. Reason : .]

3/31/2010 5:23:01 PM

damn... pics or it didn't happen, unfortunately.

That fraternity is practically begging for some strategically thrown bricks to be delivered into their frat-house and automobile windows.

3/31/2010 6:06:59 PM

^^ that ought to get those guys in trouble, both with the university and the law

3/31/2010 6:41:56 PM

Fox News Radio is so blase, why can't they just run that 23 hours?

And then give O'Reily 1 hour to rail on the whippersnappers.



I'd pay good money to see Ollie North front Skynyrd.

Haha, apparently they have an album that's supposed to be anti-gun control, while "Mr. Saturday Night Special" was pro-gun control. Ronnie must be upset.

News clip for the towing story:

http://www.wftv.com/video/22995054/index.html

It doesn't seem like the people who got their cars towed are going to be able to prove that there was actually a sign that said they could park there.

3/31/2010 7:20:58 PM

seems odd that 53 people parked there... i mean, one or two and yeah, it's a made up excuse. FIFTY-THREE? come on

3/31/2010 7:21:58 PM

I'm not saying they didn't get had, it's just going to be hard to prove it.

3/31/2010 7:22:52 PM

perhaps they should be charged with littering, and nothing more

3/31/2010 7:44:00 PM

Keeping in mind that these are, indeed, followers of Glenn Beck it's not a huge stretch of the imagination that their sheep/herd mentality would take over so once a few parked somewhere, a whole gaggle of them would follow.

Ballsy for Apple, but it's a great story about capitalism. Vote with your advertising dollar.

ballsy.... heh. Fox News viewers aren't exactly in Apple's demo

Sure they are. "Customers" are Apple's demographic. But you're right, you won't find as many 50-90yo's buying iPads.

Quote :

"The current undergraduate students were having an event at the house during the Glenn Beck event. None of the fraternity members or guests were able to park at the house for their event due to the number of people parked both in the lot and the yard. Since the property that the fraternity house is on is 100% privately owned, the undergraduate members exercised their right to have the violating cars towed to make room for those members/guests to attend their own event scheduled the same day. Sgt. Troy Williams, with the UCF police department said people were verbally warned not to park in the tow-away zones. “Told several people to get out because it’s private property it’s posted and you’ll probably be towed,” said Sgt. Williams. "

Apparently GB fans don't care about private property rights, they're probably communists.

From the LL Cool J story.

Quote :

""However, as it appears that Mr. Smith does not want to be associated with a program that could serve as an inspiration to others, we are cutting his interview from the special and wish him the best with his fledgling acting career.""

What a douche. He may not have like Cool J having a problem with using a cut up interview on their program, but to dish out a back handed remark like this is just childish.

4/1/2010 3:04:52 AM

^yeah. they originally wanted to use LL as a marketing gimmick, and when he showed his disinterest, they played the "whateva, you ain't shit anyways" card. lame.

The PR group at Fox News has a propensity for being a bunch of snarky assholes. You ought to read the TV Newser blog. Every now and then, when someone cancels on a Fox booking, or tosses out some sort of PR that directly or indirectly talks about Fox News, the Fox PR machine has some sort of razor-tipped reply at the ready. It's as if their PR people take reality-warping lessons from Glenn Beck.

riiiiight. They had an event and needed to post signs around the area for free parking for the GB event? riiiiiiiight. And it's just convenient that the signs disappeared so quickly, too. Again, I seriously doubt that 53 people parked at a fraternity house by accident, confusing signs for College FuckFest for the signs for Glenn Beck.

How about being honest and posting the rest of the article, moron... funny that you cut the following part out...

Quote :

"In back of the fraternity house, a black and white sign clearly reads “tow away zone,” along with a “no parking” sign posted by the fraternity. But dozens said there was a yellow event parking sign like, leading them into an adjacent lot. “Right there where that tow-away sign was there was a yellow sign with dark font that said, ‘event parking,’ with an arrow pointing right,” said Albert Brumfield, who shot video of the signs with a camera. ... UCF Police told FOX 35 that they have at least thirty large events on campus every year. They have never had a parking issue like Saturday's ever before."

4/1/2010 11:42:12 AM

And I seriously doubt that people attending a Glenn Beck event aren't assholes.

4/1/2010 11:43:46 AM

and frat boys aren't?

4/1/2010 11:46:47 AM

how fucking paranoid are these fuckers if they videotape parking signs?

4/1/2010 11:54:46 AM

on a college campus these days with all of the parking nazis, I'd say it's a good fucking idea. especially if you aren't 100% sure the parking is legit
