The News Hounds' mailbox has been deluged with mail for Fox News. So much so that I can barely keep up with posting them. But it's one of my favorite features at News Hounds. Since I don't have the time (or inclination) to respond to all of them and let them know they've reached the wrong party, I consider this a public service. So, attention, Fox News: you've got mail! PS, Fox viewers don't seem so pleased with Shepard Smith these days.
As always, names and other identifying information have been redacted to protect the ignorant. Grammar and spelling have been left intact. All bold text is my emphasis.

Subject: what are you thinking?
To whom it may concern,I am in shock and utter disbelief at what I am seeing on Fox News. I do not understand how you can air a commercial condoning gay marriage. We typically have Fox news on during the day to get reliable information on stories that matter. We also have it on because it is one of the few stations we can just let run and not worry to much about the content that is being aired, commercials or other wise with young kids in the room. To my great displeasure you have now changed that. What ever amount of monetary gain you received by airing that commercial is not enough to cover the amount of disrespect I will share with everyone I know. You have lowered your standards and joined the ranks of main stream media.Truly Shocked,(name)

Subject: Cavuto & Healthcare
Just painful to watch...the mis information tonite on Healthcare!! If Cavuto is going to REPORT on this not liked policy he needs to @ least report accurately....... he like everyone else should read the bill!! President Obama n all previous Presidents, all Federal employees r exempt from any of the healthcare plans.... they have their own! State employees have their own plans....& several thousand companies have wavers...that exempt them. I have read the first second & the reconsiliation....if everyone was smart they would not buy but pay the fine....it would collaspe the system.... this is not about insurance....it is about control/power/money......certainly not the poor as the Medicaid coverage is not accepted by almost any doctor..... call --around check. The other thing (& there r so many) doctors r quiting their practices, becoming part of large practices, or becoming a hospitalists! Colleges have changed the ciricullums to churn out doctors & nurses but the students r from India, Pakastan, Iran, Phillapines....ect...check for liscensing..since 2009...maybe earlier as this has been plans for a really long time. They r working in clinics n urban areas n r paid extra to work n these area... Nurses r being hired fr the Phillapines now....all easy to check... if he wants to report there r 2700 pages of the bill..read n report a paragraph each evening....n Kathleen Sabelius is executing them each as fast as she can..... NO CHIPPING YET....but w the fighting over voter fraud, immigration, border identification, you see...that is how they start it! Sorry it is long .. print n read @ grocery n line... thank u

I am getting sick and tired of Fox News supporting changes to any part of our health care. We, the people do not want electronic medical records. The doctors only want it because of a kick back by the gov't and it makes it easier for them. The doctors do need to think now they just use their touch screens. This electronic records serve no purpose. Plus the doctors don't read the prior record anyway. I have been a victum of that. Nor do we want electronic prescriptions because the patient has no control as to when we want to get the prescription or how many refills the doctor wrote, etc. Many people go to the doctor and get prescriptions because SOON they will run out NOT that we NEED them right then and there. You better start working again for the people and not the gov't and doctors.Also today you reported on how good drones are for us. What the hell is wrong with this station. WE do not want drones flying any where in this country for any reason. This is tuning out to be a communist country !!!!! and this station is doing it's best to help!!!!!!!!!!ps Stop running ARRP and United Health Care commercials...........like duh we don't know it Obama based care so you can kill the older Americans.

Subject: Murders in Texas
Dear Mr. Smith, today you brought a story to us stating that a 223 caliber "assault" rifle was used in the murders in Texas this past weekend. You did not say that the rifle was found, so how do you know it was an assault rifle. There is a big difference in an assault rifle, which fires on full automatic, and a rifle which fires semi automatically! Wheather you are a libtard puke, or just misinformed, I don't know, but you are FOX, so get it correct, or just tell us you really are just another name for CNN!

Subject: shephard smith news today Apr 2
I am glad Shepard Smith invited wife & her mother of "Pizza Man Nathan" on his news cast today. There has been little concern forNathan or his family. I would like to see a better photo of "Nathan" than the one currently being shown. The photo looks like a mug shot. I am certain the family could find a more appropriate photo. I also would like to see a photo of "Nathan" in his Domino's Uniform. He was on the job doing to make people happy with pizza. I wonder if Domino's will offer some financial help to the family? I have not heard of any funds being started for the family.

Subject: Kirsten Powers
What Kirsten Powers said on Sean Hannity was the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard, saying Sean was mean spirited when he attacked the obama girls about taking two spring break vacations, Sean Hannity was just calling a Spade a Spade..... what Kirsten the liberal missed is WE THE TAX PAYER are on the hook for paying for these two spring break vacations, I could give a shit if they take 365 day vacation IF THEY PAY FOR IT. Not the U.S. tax payer. You know "have some skin in the game" " Pay just a little more". This so called president has ruined the Country, and I'm ashamed of the United States!!
Proof that Fox News viewers are more ignorant than other news consumers? I report, you decide!

sandman, I’m not really sure (after reading some of the atrocious spellings) that those folks would be able to read their own post-it notes.

Such a shame we can’t harness the stupidity of the Fox News viewer and use it as a source of energy.
Its such a constantly renewing resource, we’d literally have no need for Middle Eastern oil . . .
