They’re not haiku. Nor are they poems. However, in this modern Twitterverse where thoughts can be no longer than 140 characters, the Fox and Friends chyron writer reigns supreme in an English language niche in which there are few competitors. If one were deaf—and didn’t have closed captioning—everything Fox “News” wants you to know is delivered in these short blasts, each less than a half-a-tweet. It’s a gift.

Yet, during all these breathless attacks Fox “News,” Tucker Carlson, and The Daily Beast have yet to accuse Media Matters of getting its facts wrong. Watch as Tucker and Steve Doocy hit all the talking points—Liberals with White House ties, George Soros, Joyce Foundation, Bill Moyers, Barbara Streisand, tax-exempt status—providing the perfect backdrop for the chyron writers' art. Also note how they pretend they hadn’t already coordinated on what they were going to say. Video below the jump.
