Er - an even worse typo! Fox's Freudian slip

An anchor at the Fox station in Washington, WTTG, said – first thing out of his mouth as the President walked away from the podium:

“President Obama speaking from the East Room of the White House, telling the nation and the world: President Obama is in fact dead. It was a U.S.-led strategic (horrified co-anchor mumbles correction) I’m sorry. Osama Bin Laden is dead.” Read more on world wide coverage of the raid, as it happened in Abbotabad, on ReaderSupportedNews

And lets give a cybersalute to tweeter Sohair Attar, the world's virtual witness in Abbottabad, self described as an "IT consultant taking a break from the rat-race by hiding in the mountains with his laptops".

It was somehow fitting that President Obama's announcement about the death of bin Laden interrupted Donald Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice" reality show on Sunday night.

Fox TV's awkward Soy Jism moment

Commentator Rosanna Scotto milks the moment on live tv - and her Fox co-anchors don't quite know quite where to look. Gasps and giggles...."That's an option, too...." Uh-huh.

Jon Stewart Takes on O'Reilly and Fox

wolfkiller signs up with FoX news - Sarah Palin a pundit?

Yup the inevitable has transpired: http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/01/11/cnn-confirms-palin-inks-tv-deal/. Better keep her on the screen than governing. It's God's plan for Cheap shrills.

Booty call? Not really

Hacks hoping to speak with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton about a NATO gathering were accidentally directed by the White House to call a phone-sex line. What's the real message here? Go F*ck yourselves?
Journalists who sought on "on-the-record briefing call with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and National Security Advisor Jim Jones to discuss the NATO summit" missed out, apparently. Fox news gloated about the contrast between "Shrillary" and the breathy voice recording that answered the pay-per-dial, and the White House just hrrumphed .

Aw, Nuts. Can't think of a euphemism

The cable news anchors clearly don't have the cojones to report on Jesse Jackson's Fox blooper (for which the activist has since apologized). To see how far behind the talking heads have fallen in their ability to come up with on-air euphemisms, click on this compilation tape, posted by the topical website "23/6: Some of the News, Most of the time", posted by Kevin Alloca
