dear coworker, when you tell me that you've read that fox news isn't covering the phone scandal in england, I will indeed check that out.

2 second google sez no.

what he was referring to was that their media-coverage show gave a half-hearted/joking pass at the story they weren't covering last weekend; but, reportedly, after a lot of criticism, they covered it a lot this weekend.

fox news itself has had all kinds of stories, according to google news.

they've had plenty of stuff to be legitimately critical of over the years, but fair is fair.

making me defend them irks me. ;p
