SHE KNOWS OLD

Gertrude Noone is thought of as an authority on a number of issues because she’s seen a lot and absorbed a lot, and been around a lot. She was asked recently on her thoughts on Senators McCain, Clinton and Obama as candidates. Her opinions went something like this; on Barack Obama “he’s smart”, but believes he “makes too many promises”. Regarding Senator Clinton, Ms. Noone is impressed by Hillary’s energy and conditioning and talks in general about how she’s concerned that for all politicians “it’s all about money”. As for Senator McCain, “so far” she favors him feeling there’s something “presidential” about him but feels “he’s a little old”. And when Gertrude Noone calls someone “a little old”, we have to take note, as she was recently featured in a New Haven Register article honoring her on her 109th birthday . . . like we said, she knows old.

The Faux News Network Principles


A) We distort, you abide
B) Or we retort if you deride, unless we choose not to
C) Complete sentences are acceptable in lieu of complete truths
D) It’s OK to criticize the 2006 Democratic Congress for all America’s problems since 2001
E) We shoot from the flip
F) We’re not always accurate but we’re always certain
G) On what we feel is wrong in this world, we can’t stop people from saying I don’t agree or I don’t care, but we won’t let them say I didn’t know
H) The director’s board has a whim of irony
I) In times of emergency, we should rally around our President: In times of democracy he should do the same for us
J) We proudly plagiarize in advance, examples available upon request
K) It’s easy to be fun-based when you’re fact based
L) Good news parody makes for good news parity
M) And, of course, our goal is and always will be to be the most trusted name in Faux News
