Some observations by Ace of Spades

From Ace of Spades:

I think I'm giving up on FoxNews. The channel has become far too aggressively lowbrow, stupid, and carnival-barker-ish for my tastes. My tastes aren't exactly elevated, but I do have limits, and FoxNews has violated mine.

Almost every time I have the channel on I feel stupid, because it's so clearly chasing the stupid demographic. And I'm not part of that demographic, and do not wish to be treated as part of that demographic.

Maybe this is how it's been getting ratings all along and I never noticed. Well, I'm noticing now. I'd rather watch friggin' CNN than this televised coloring book for mental defectives.

I'll still watch Hume, Wallace, and Red Eye, of course. And O'Reilly every now and again, when he's on about some outrage or has a good guest. But as a general matter, that's it for me.

No wonder airports and hospitals and hotels run CNN and only CNN. There is political bias, and then there is bias against the aggressively, obnoxiously submoronic. I can't blame anyone for having the latter bias.

Here's some news for Fox: Your core audience is conservative. Not retarded. I assure you they're not the same thing, though you seem to believe they are.

Oh, Right, That's Why I Don't Watch CNN: After promising that his show doesn't take sides, Cooper presents an "analysis" of the Libby pardon so breathtakingly one-sided I have trouble believing I just saw it on a "news" channel, labeled as "news" rather than opinion.

I've been noticing the same thing about Fox lately -- all the whooshing graphics make me dizzy and I have to change the channel.
