This is what FOX News and many conservatives actually think:

[Beckwin]

YouTube - Mr. Rogers is a evil Man

Yes, Mr. Rogers preached individualism and somehow that gets tied to kids feeling entitled to good grades?

This is why FOX is a joke, sorry, MSNBC doesn't even approach this level of ridiculous.

It's too bad Fred Rogers isn't still around; he was one hell of a shot.

[Mizango]

Fox News is always good for a cheap laugh.


I especially hate the Fox and friends crew. They are a joke.

[Beckwin]

It just really bugs me when conservatives always go "...oh yeah well what about MSNBC!?!?!?!?!?" Shit doesn't even compare, even though MSNBC does have a liberal bias in programming (their primetime commentators aren't clandestine about their views at all).

Also this should function as a Mr. Rogers nostalgia thread. I grew up watching it and I never begged for a grade.

[Jaybar]

Mr. Rogers made me believe that I didn't have to work hard because I'm special? I thought it just meant I didn't need to fit into the social standards of my peers.

[Mizango]

Same. I like the viewer that said "Mr. Rodgers. Mr. Spock and Sesame Street" are the 3 biggest influences that ruined kids. >.>

wat?

This thread is making me want to Google Neil Cavuto's and Hulk smash my monitor.

[BRP]

Did I hear a laugh track(well, an awwwww track)? On a news show?

[Kuya]

I wonder what led to the narcissism in other countries where they didn't have Mr. Rogers, Mr. Spock or Sesame Street. Oh, the problems we have now go far deeper than Mr. Rogers.

Are they really being serious?

[ZarakiKujata]

whatever bias MSNBC may be accused of having, the evenhandedness with which Rachel Maddow treats shit with, combined with David Gregory, Joe Scarborough, and Pat Buchanan who do not have a liberal bias means it will always be a step above faux noise. The only things keeping Fox remotely respectable are Shep Smith and Chris Wallace... Also, it might just be me but I prefer Joe Scarborough's commentary to the shit on Fox, because at least he acknowledges that the modern republican party has lost its way and needs to change somewhat, whereas you don't hear Hannity/Oreilly etc saying that.

[BadKarma]

FuckKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKING Die Fox News

Mr Rogers and Barney was my entire childhood till i was like 6 years old

[archibaldcrane]

While I always watched Mr. Rodgers when I was a kid...

...my dad hated him. Not for some lofty ideals that he made kids soft or whatever, my dad just found him unbelievably creepy.

[Kuya]

unbelievably creepy

I do too, actually.

[melbufrauma]

FOX is so fucking retarded lol

[Ksandra]

my bf and I are laughing about this, because they keep talking about the current "school generation" as being lazy. THEY DIDN'T GROW UP ON MR. ROGERS RETARDS. My generation is the one that grew up on that show and we're all out of college.

YouTube - Mister Rogers defending PBS to the US Senate

[Beckwin]

I suppose the saddest part might be that Rogers was an ordained minister and the type of Christian that really transcended the religion/ideology to appeal to people of all walks with a message of love... and leave it to FOX and modern mainstream conservatives to throw him under the bus after he passed away.

[Xno Kappa]

Wow, just wow. And then they wonder why people are sick of their bullshit.

FOX hates love, you know that

[SwampdonkeyPLD]

I think you guys look for any reason to hate Fox News. One guy says "I back it", while the others say no, and suddenly it's how everyone feels. And they couldn't "toss him under the bus" before he died because the study they were talking about was released afterwords.

[kuronosan]

Well you, sir, are a rapscallion.

There. I said it.

.................................................. No.


No, fuck that shit. Not this time, God Dammit. Too far.
Something of theirs has to burn and/or die, they went too far this time.
