Fox Attacks Business [VIDEO]
This post, written by Robert Greenwald, originally appeared on Brave New Films
The laughter could have rocked a city block when we at BNF heard that FOX was launching a business channel called FBN, an anagram of BNF!
Since we are among the precious few who have watched FOX business shows, from Neil Cavuto to the "Cost of Freedom," we know what a joke the so-called business coverage is. Melanie at the News Hounds has documented the coverage for years. Paris Hilton, strippers, sex diaries -- all critical business functions.
Last week, they put a teaser video on their website. It was time to get to business and mock it with our own improved version.
Assault your weary eyes, have a good laugh and then enter the first ever BNF FBN contest.
PITCH US YOUR BEST FOX BUSINESS STORY
Like: Paris Hilton indicted for securities fraud or: O.J. Simpson eats dinner at an expensive restaurant. Should he get a discount?
Weigh in in the comments below, and the winner gets a signed copy of the special "Outfoxed: FOX Attacks edition" coming in November.
Get ready to lose you shirt!
