Either Fox News viewers had a lot more to say last week or else they got more ignorant. But for whatever reason, there was a significant uptick in the number of emails their viewers sent to us in the ridiculously mistaken belief that we’re Fox News. Click past the jump for a select batch.
As always, names and identifying information have been redacted to protect the ignorant. Spelling and grammar have been left intact.
This email was a forward of an email sent to the Wall Street Journal, with a note to us, “I think my letter to editor below is a worthy topic for Fox news.”
Subject: letter to editor
After reading “The Carbonated President”, I am haunted by an image. I see my grand children smelling the fresh air from debtor’s prison. President Obama has this view that we can not fail future generations by allowing global warming. But then he is perfectly content saddling future generations with unsustainable debt and an economy incapable of competing internationally due to high costs. High costs refer to high taxes, expensive energy, big social programs, Obamacare and crushing interest rates after the world figures out our debt is junk. I can not begin to express the level of disappointment I have with the judgement of the Obama administration. These people are not waging a war on coal. They are waging a war against the future of the United States.
Subject: Dish Nation “CRACKERS’
Dear Fox News,
On 6-24-2013 I was watching Dish Nation 12:30-13:00. In their product review segment they had some watermelon Oreos. The white guy made a comment about the cookies and the black guy, Big Al Mac, told him he already had a product line named after him “CRACKERS’. That was a racist comment. The show should be taken off the air and all their sponsors drop them, just like Paula Dean. This happened Monday not 20 years ago. Google it for yourself.
Sincerely,
Subject: Zimmerman case and use of deadly force
Please, some of you legal experts inform the rest of your world famous prosecutors/defenders that in the state of Florida a strike to the head by a fist, elbow, knee or foot is considered DEADLY FORCE. So, Mr. Zimmerman was responding to deadly force with deadly force.
Check with FDLE or CJSTC (Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission).
Thanks,

Hi Guys
I enjoy most everything about “THE FIVE”. From good information, to good humor at proper times. The only way I could enjoy it more is for you to make me a little younger with better hearing, or to ease up a little on talking over each other. It’s just possible that I’m not the only old fellow out here with hearing challenge’s.
Thanks
IN GOD WE TRUST
