I Have A Bad Feeling About This

I just confirmed by watching it a second time, that Fox News' new show Red Eye is one of the worst on TV. And now, Fox is running promos for a comedy called The 1/2 Hour News Hour that will premiere Sunday at 10 pm Eastern. Two questions. First, what is a cable news channel doing running a comedy? Second, why does the number one cable news channel in the world feel it necessary to fix something that isn't broken? Liberals cannot take a joke -- when it's about them. They already hate Fox News with a fiery passion. This type of show will only give them a limitless supply of ammo for their unhinged attacks.

It is so sad that any serious news would feel the need to compete with a show like Jon Stewart or Bill Maher.

Someone's telling them they need to change their image...but WHY!!? Fox is in the winning seat???

Sorry, but FOX knows as much about commedy as they do about news.

The only thing funny about this show is the idea that someone at Fox greenlit the show!

Since Fox News is the number one cable news channel in the world, often outrating CNBC, MSNBC and CNN combined, I'd say they know a LOT about news. And, since you haven't seen the show yet, I think it's a bit premature to give an opinion on it. My only objection is to having a comedy show on a news channel at all.
