What if Fox

had gotten the package from the shooter and announced "We at Fox news have reviewed the information in the package and have determined not to air it."

1. Oh they'd air it allright
After they altered it to make Cho look like a liberal eco-terrorist or something.

5. They would have used that guy from Mad TV to
dub in a voice-over to make it sound like the kid was doing it all for Nancy Pelosi ...

2. We would praise the wisdom of Fox executives for not giving the
publicity to Cho that he so desperately wanted. :rofl: I normally have very little sympathy for the major networks, but this in one time that NBC could not win, no matter what they did with this package of information.

3. Fox would have added menacing background music to the video before airing it.

4. If Fox headquarters had gotten that package, they would have
had to go in and hose the place down.

6. Truthfully? I'd congratulate them.
Fox Noise would never do this, of course, but if we want to imagine a fantasy world where this network has some kind of integrity, thinks of the nation's interests first, and behaves like a responsible news gathering organization, yeah, sure. I'd give Rupert an "attaboy."

8. What makes you think they would do that? The integrity network?
Remember the Columbia disaster where they were hijacking CNN's video feed until CNN put a hugh-jass logo on it?
