Happy Birthday Johnny Carson


Today would have marked the 90th birthday of the best late night host ever, Johnny Carson. When asked what he wanted on his tombstone, he said on 60 minutes "Ill be right back". And in fact, kinda sorta he is. Because as I watch Stephen Colbert on "The Late Night Show", I see so much of Johnny's physical energy, amiability, and comedic spirit. I still miss Johnny Carson, but thank to Stephen Colbert not as much.

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
