The Daily Show's Jon Stewart took viewers on a tour of the wars waged by Fox News, ranging from the War on Christmas to the brutal War on Ladies' Night. (Nobody can take away our cosmos and '90s dance parties at mediocre bars, amiright!?) The only war missing is the War on Women.
MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell broke it down in the latest Rewrite.

as #1 fox news continues to dominate the ratings, the small dogs nip at their heels.
Uh Mikie, you have heard of NBC, haven't you?
commie,
much of the reason for fox news' rating is because implants and very short skirts are front and center.
If FOX has any ratings at all it's because the FCC controlled by Colin Powell's ultra conservative son who has helped the RW media dominate what news people can get in their cable packages. FOX is always included but a subscriber has to pay extra to get MSNBC which would explain why poorer people are more easily brainwashed by FOX's BS, because it 's all they get to hear.
HIstorians will eventually remember this era as FAUX Noise's war on sanity and common sense...
Anyway, to all of the Comedy Central folks who went through all of those soundbites of Murdoch's minions, thank you. Stuff like that is the reason I'm a cabbie; I just lack tolerance I guess. But if you're ever on Planet Utah, you've got a free cab ride coming anytime...
So your a cabbie because you think Fox News is insane?
cabbie pmsnbc is nbcs cable channel. #1 fox news dominates them. btw i see the obama admin gsa scandal is getting worse. criminal charges will be filed with sentences as high as 30 years in fed prison. the criminal obama admin. is in freefall as romney is outpolling the annoited one. let not your heart be troubled.
And wait 'til the Republican controlled House Committee invesigates the White House sitting on the news of the GSA's malfeasance and now apparently ceiminal charges on the kickback schemes as WH political stafffers were tipped 13 months ago by a former Obama Senatorial Aide working in a patronage job in the Inspector General's Office alerted them instead of his superiors when he received a whistleblowers complaint! Hey, I guess these were "the people we were waiting for!" in Obama's 2008 campaign!
Thanks Foxbots, for proving my point about FAUX's war on sanity...
You honor me by singling me out...
Grandpa Fuzz knows as much about the GSA investigation as he did Trayvon Martin, but that doesn't stop him from flapping his gums... And someone has also told him man-created global warming is a myth as well, and he believes them. Did you do the leading shill for that one used to work for the tobacco companies and peddled their junks science? Didn't think so...
And racial profiling in the Texas case? Hardly. The shooter, assuming she's guilty and she has confessed, is clearly horribly disturbed and had apparently miscarried recently...
BTW, Fuzz, you missed what Romney said about the rich versus poor separation you keep beating the drum for... While he and Ann were backpeddling on that overheard recording by the imbed he said,
We don't divide America based on wealth or success...
He should've tried Sarah Palin's tactic of winking....
I've with my alcoholism for a long time now, remaining totally abstinence. Unfortunately your narcissism in not in remission.
I'd suggest you head back to FAUX, and discuss this stuff over there, but shoot, you don't want to do that; that's pretty clear...
I guess I wouldn't either...
Grrr, a bit of leftover road rage for the typos... Should be: I've lived with sober alcoholism for a long time now; it's in remission unlike Grandpa's narcissism.
And if I used chemd's logic, I'd ask why Ruskie is suggesting FAUX dominates NBC...
As for what success FAUX has, a honk of my horn to H.L. Mencken (Google him up, students).
Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.
Because NBC is a castoff from General Electric who finally decided the leftist network conglomerate hed to prove it could cut it themselves without being constantly shored up with infushions of cash from the Corporates successful areas of industry, like Nuclear Power Plant construction and maintence?
Nothing about a nurse of AfroAmerican descent in the company of another male in her Lexus shooting and killing in premediated fashion and stealing an infant son of a whie mother strikes you as suspicious as she excused her action for trying to fool her fiance (who was also of AfroAmerican descent) that the white infant was his child?
Are you that incomprehensibly naive, Cabbie? It smacks of baby stealing to sell on the blackmarket to me. And what would any male passenger be doing there while that was going down, and still not coming forward if it was simply a case of a woman gone berserk? They were parked outside of a pediatric clinic cold bloodly waiting for a victim, don't you think!
During his time in the Senate and while running for president, Obama received a total of $77,051 from the oil giant and is the top recipient of BP PAC and individual money over the past 20 years, according to financial disclosure records.

FOX's tactics are so obvious. They not only neutralize the effective impact of slogans like "The War on Women" by using the word War for every disputed issues or concerns even if they are trivial, but they very knowingly dilute the impact of War in Afghanistan which you know their corporate cronnies are still making a fortune on.
The only War on Women this week was the wanton premediated racially profiled shooting 7 times and killing of a young mother so her baby could be ripped from her arms and stolen to sell on the black market. Will we hear anthing about that outrage from the race and gender concious leftist media?
keith why are you trying to shamelessly politicize that event? Do the people involved a favor and STFU about their tragedy. Trying some political stamp is pathetic it's as pathetic as newt's disgusting ploys, it's as pathetic as al sharpton's bs, it's as pathetic as glenn beck's loony garbage
pathetic keith say it with pathetic
that crap makes me sick you should be ashamed
Hey Larry, its good to see you using The Jon Stewart show as your fact reference. Your credibility just jumped a thousand percent.
Way to go.
suz you might have a point. pmsnbc should start hiring attractive women. as the military allows gays. i demand pmsnbc have to hire heterosexuals.
Well, they do have a couple of lookers in the morning hours, but no real heterosexual commentators of either gender that I know of as evening talent, and although Mathews does have children, he is most famous for "that thrill up my leg" swoon over Obama's speechifying in 2008, just as they were carrying off the faiting women from his rallys!
Grandpa! I didn't know you were a homophobe, too?
May I suggest a few years as a cabbie. Guaranteed to cure you (they're invariably well-behaved; my favorites after food servers). You might acquire other prejudices, but that demon definitely gets exorcised.
As for that developmentally arrested view of women-as-objects, I'm afraid that one's probably too entrenched...
Hey, my Mom and my Wife and my Daughter were all hot looking women at the time of their weddings. No objectifying, its the kind of thing the Poets and Troupadours have written and sung about for ages!
I'm no homophope, although I do get concrned at the stridency of what the Federal Department of Education believes is mandatory and preferrable to teach my grandchildren about the growing prevalence of single sex parentage and the existance of homosexual and lesbian love long before they enter puberty. Like in grooming, you know?
rachell maddow is the only nonheterosexual host on msnbc
but don't let reality get in the way of your hate and fake outrage storage
i dont like that guy maddow
