Everyone makes fun of Fox News because the 24-hour news channel is much more conservative than the other news networks, and some of the commentators sound like they are on paid leave from the Republican National Committee. In fact, Dick Cheney insists in writing that the hotels he stays at have the TV's tuned into Fox News.

When the Democrats won the mid-terms elections on November 8, Fox News probably wasn't happy (and neither was its audience), but there's nothing they can do about it. Or is there? One tactic is to suggest that the insurgents in Iraq are happy that the Democrats won. How do we know this? Someone found a memo outlining this strategy.

The question is, did anyone at Fox News comply with the directive? The people at www.NewsHounds.us run a website where masochists watch Fox all day and report on what what they saw. They think that a particular news report on the insurgents' reaction to the U.S. elections is too close for comfort. Rest assured, there's no insubordination at Fox News!
