i hope that we are soon treated to the spectacle of these reactionary assholes on a raft floating further and further out into the sea of irrelevance. you'd think they'd already be out there somewhere, and we'd be waving at them maybe.
as it is: one funny thing is that the faux news business model has been rendered transparent--reactionary idiot infotainment all day every day---the interesting thing is that there was a time not long ago when that business model was of a piece with the broader ideological framework as a whole. so there's a side of me that hopes faux news continues blazing trails of irrelevance and finds itself losing viewers, losing advertisers, all the while becoming more and more obviously what it always has been.
