I agree, NA. It's an excuse to say and do outrageous things and I find it very childish. ("But, Mom- the other kids are doing it too!) Alex is correct with regards to straight news on Fox- they dumb it down, but it's not horribly skewed. Unfortunately, the zillion 'analyst' programs take up far more air time than any newscast and present a picture of collective bias against anyone who isn't hardcore conservative. CNN, NBC, CBS and others seriously dumb down the news as well and I believe they are kinder to Obama than Faux, but I haven't seen the same level of mocking, insulting and inflammatory rhetoric directed at McCain. Then again, I don't really watch them too often. I prefer to read the news.
Edited to add: Lol, iSm! Just ten minutes ago I was taking the Girl to her homeschool class and we had to go over a very bumpy dirt road. We both started saying the "Baa Ram Ewe', as the bumps were making our voices quaver just like a sheep's.
