What was he thinking? How could he ignore the millions of American who watch Fox News, whose motto is "Fair and Balanced?". Chris Wallace (the son of famous newsman Mike Wallace), now a Fox News anchor, appeared on a Fox News show to criticise the White House for being the biggest bunch of crybabies he has ever seen. I'll bet Obama never saw that coming. Now in addition to fighting a war in Afghanistan, he has stirred up a real hornet's nest if Fox News is against him.
Now there are millions of Fox Viewers who have no idea what Obama is up to, just because he childishly shunned that network. Will that make the Fox viewers any smarter? I don't think so. Will it make Fox viewers any better informed? Probably not. How can NOT APPEARING in Fox, help those viewers understand his programs any better?
I am going to have to step in with some advice because I don't want to see ignorance in America spread any further.
My advice to Mr. Obama is this: Go on Fox News and give your message to ALL the people of the USA, not just those who don't watch Fox News. This advice is coming from a person who would have actually voted for you if I had the right to, which I don't, being Canadian.
Speaking to you personally, President Obama, (if you even read this blog) I can help you prepare for your appearance for Fox News. Some advice on how to communicate with the viewers on Fox News, and maybe in some ways to help bring those viewers around to your way of thinking. Just a reminder before you start, you're going to have to lie a little here, it's OK, the viewers are used to it. In fact the viewers basically do not trust anyone who is "fact based" as they say. That would show a liberal bias.
- Start off by doing a terrorist fist bump with Chris Wallace, to show him and Fox viewers that it is harmless.
- Hang a sign around your neck during the interview that says "Please tune to another channel"
- Make sure to spend the first part of the interview defending yourself against the Fox News claims that you use too much mustard on your hamburgers.
- For God's sake make sure you wear the biggest American Flag pin you can find or make.
- Remind the viewers that you also believe the Earth is only 6000 years old, and that Adam was the first man, and he did not look like an Ape.
- Insist that you personally torture suspected Al Quida terrorists every day, and that's how you get your best information to keep America safe.
In my humble opinion, watching FOX News is the intellectual equivalent of clapping your hands over your ears and shouting, "Nyah, nyah, nyah!"
