Fox News Saint John

[c9]

There's a columnist in the Saint John paper who is, to put it mildly, a little looney. In his column this morning on the editorial page, he used "lefty," "looney," "commie," "crazy," "ultra-liberal," and more, all just talking about the CRTC's unwillingness to let Fox News run on Canadian cable. Which he used these words to describe: "balanced," "fair," "conservative," and "different." He also said that the CRTC "would sooner let in Al-Jazeera" or another super-Islamist-focused channel in Iran (which I'd never heard of) than let in Fox News.

To avoid this crazy pointing himself at me, I won't name him, but here's a fun game for nihilicious and gueny: who am I talking about? Now maybe the CRTC should let us run any old channel in Canada, I've not considered the idea, but I do know this guy is maybe not the one to be making the call. :)

Hmm...Not Jim Webb? He usually writes about three letters a week to the editor, and has the occassional column. I don't think he works for the paper. He is just a local nut. You may remember him as the former leader of the COR party in its dying days. I'm not sure, but I believe he may be the leader of teh Gray Party now. Yes. NB does have a "Gray" Party. And you might have already guessed it is composed mainly of gray-haired, cranky old white Christian men, mostly from Saint John. (Walter Addis is a member :P)

Not surprised at all, seems like the perfect fit if Walter Addis is a member. :) The columnist (maybe he's syndicated from Calgary or something) is C h a r l e s M o o r e . I just don't want him searching on his name and finding this. :)

Yes. Then he will be forced to write an article on the underground LiveJournal; media of the Gay Conspiracy and Communists to take down the objective media like FOX News, and that Jerry Falwell show on the Vision channel.

Coming up on Live at 5:

Parents are in shock after discovering that their children can secretly say anything they want (dramatic pause) over the internet. These "on" "line" "journals," which can be created without parental permission, have literally taken over! School administrators, nurses, babysitters, pets, and the persistent vegetative state-set are literally rioting in the streets. Some people can talk about their dating life, their new hairstyle, going to a party, being sad, being happy, being sad, being sad, or being sad, and nobody is preventing it from happening!

Our extensive 45-minutes of coverage this evening begins with a parish priest in Rothesay...

(kill me now...)
