That's exactly the kind of statement I would expect from an average fox host. So obviously dumb that I can't even make fun of it because it seems like satire/sarcasm already.

If you view Fox purely as a satire, its becomes watchable again

Itd be like watching starship troopers, but less fun..

Reminds me of the M:TG parody in Fallout 2, the item description of which went like this:

"Tragic: The Garnering. As addictive as crack, but less fun"

It's like when all the chuds loved the Colbert Report because they thought he was super republican. Took a while before they realized it was satire.

A significantly large portion of their audience will be mad about this. They are told what to be mad about, not validate it

My mom was super pissed when Country Crock announced they were making plant based butter. She threw a straight up hissy fit about it and wouldn't even budge when I told her the Country Crock that she has been buying for decades has always been plant based.
