Stay classy, Faux "news."

Once again, Faux "news" shows just how crude they can be.
Hey Faux, take a look at that fat ugly Jabba the Hutt stand-in you call your boss.


The headline linked to a post by Daily Caller writer Neil Munro. The post, titled "Sarah Jessica Parker sticks her nose into 2012 campaign" began with the line "Wealthy actress and socialite Sarah Jessica Parker is the celebrity horse that Barack Obama's 2012 campaign is betting on to win low-dollar donations, just two days after using Anna Wintour, the English-born editor of the fashion-industry nameplate, Vogue."

The right-wing media leveled sexist attacks at Wintour as well. On the June 4 edition of Fox News' The Five, co-host Greg Gutfeld said the ads showed "how the aging in-crowd sticks together even as they fall apart." Gutfeld later said: "If Anna Wintour is the face of your campaign, your face -- your campaign may need a facelift." After playing video of Wintour promoting the event, Gutfeld responded "I love Mick Jagger's new wig."

And had a couple of replies telling me that I was wrong when I accused that fucking cesspool of depicting SJP as a horse.

Just don't put anything past these assholes.

She may not have been expecting this, but she's no wallflower, and she's half of a serious power couple in NYC. Payback is going to be a bitch.

Not only is Fox going to get way more than they dished out on the airwaves, Faux news correspondents are going to see invitations to all kinds of functions dry up, as well as their access to a lot of celebrities.

Jeebus, did you morans think there was no limit to how far you could go?
