FAKE FAUX FOLK FACTS

The Supreme Court passed a law which basically allowed anonymous donations to political candidates and with that some very greedy, very rich, very right wing people are trying to influence the election (as in buying it). One of their best is three “just plain folks” in West Virginia talking about how that darn Obama is messing things up. Well it turns out those just plain folks were actually in the Oregon diner in south Philly filming that and they are all actors and told to wear hey seed type stuff. You have to give the Republicans credit, they say we depend on the hay seed vote to make hay and not say who they are as the fake faux folks don’t want the facts, to get out that is.

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
