“That’s A Fox Story For A Month!”

There are so many fun quotes in this summary of Aaron Brown’s address at a recent conference on “Journalism & The Tsunami.” So here’s another highlight:

“Brown continued: “As soon as I heard about the professor” — Ward Churchill — “at the University of Colorado, I said, ‘Oh man! That’s a Fox story for a month!” … O’Reilly did about two weeks on taking the ‘Christ’ out of Christmas! Who the hell was worried about that? But for their core audience, that was a great story for them. Is that news? No. It’s entertainment with news as a component. That’s what it is.”"
