Remember that episode of the Simpsons where Sideshow Bob ran for mayor, and the TV station digitally added devil horns and a ring of fire on Mayor Quimby?

Can you guess what news station this is about?

People need to just grow up, seriously. That kind of immaturity does not belong in national news.

are those photoshops supposed to look real? it's almost insultingly obvious that they're caricatures. is this seriously how desperate fox is at this point to trash their opponents?

Well, seeing as how Fox and Friends can be quite comical, and intentionally at that, (have you ever seen how silly Doocy can act), it's probably a joke.

Watching the news segment embedded in the link, you then see that the photos are ALSO photoshopped onto a guy and a poodle being walked by said guy (coinciding with the whole 'attack dog' thing).

Stupid idea to alter the original photos, but I'm leaning towards comedy for the sake of poking back at the NYT guys. Especially given that this is Fox & Friends.

Ray and Ultra have a point - most of the fox bashers here probably haven't seen the show more than once or twice, but thinking on it a little more, I'm with them. It seems like the kind of thing they do as a joke, and the photoshops ARE pretty extreme.

According to Wikipedia and a few other things, they're the most watched morning news program, so apparently we're not alone.

That said, I'm not awake early enough to watch it, I just catch it every now and again.
