Wrong.

The Fox entertainment network here is a broadcast channel. Fox News is a cable channel. Been that way a long time. The TV channel in my area long precedes the advent of Fox News, which only showed up here in the last couple of years.

The Moon Hoax show ran in 2001 on the Fox entertainment channel, alongside the usual lowest-common-denominator crap that channel has run for years, including numerous shows on the paranormal and other things.

As I said, nobody judges CBS News by the prime time shows run on CBS, and that's the same channel. Do you judge what CNN says by what other Time-Warner television companies do?

I get irritated enough by the "Fox News = Moon Hoax" meme when I hear it from people who don't know any better. You do.

Check CE, and tell me the conservatives don't love negative campaigning, hate dealing with issues. (n/t) - Bowser - 9/14/2004 8:24:30 PM
