Then again, it is Fox.
It's a condiment choice, not national policy. Making a big deal about it is pointless.

even from an academic cognitive psychological viewpoint, i can't make any informed judgements on a man, based on his condiments, nor i doubt can anyone else assume anything. Often 'experts', 'commentators' and 'consultants' dredged up on fox, have rather questionable qualifications and professional histories, with only pseudoscience and political rhetoric to recommend them.

Seems that they just need filler, having a 24 hour news program must make it hard to find things worth talking about.

fox could try to be not so americanocentric and to focus on other parts of the world like cnn, ru today, cctv, press tv, nhk, euronews,indtv etc

We have 24 hour news networks in Europe, and they don't deal with crazy stuff like this. Usualy they just find an hour's worth of news (sometimes stretching stories out to fill that hour) in all areas (politics, sports, art, science, economy, etc) and repeat it throughout the day, adding, removing or updating stories as appropriate.

Personally I agree with Kendall's version - having a 24 hour news program makes it hard to find things worth talking about, so they don't bother trying.

CBC does something similar, thought they run doco's and homegrown productions of dubious worth as well.

What's the matter, Nick? Too good for proper American ketchup? Prefer your elitist mustard, eh? I would have thought an unAmerican communist like you would love your red kethcup, or are you just trying to hide it? Or is it that you're alergic to good old fashioned American foods? Prefer your terrorist horseradish mustard?
Tell me, Tsu, exactly why do you hate America? Or are you just opposed to freedom in general?
Why me, I didn't do anything, I love my ketchup... I use it on almost everything.

And then you start yelling at Tsu, I'm confused :confused:

I was wondering why you were yelling at me, lol, wanna see my food pyramid, lol, I was bored, so I made one, you know the new one where everything is equal and at the same level, well, ketchup is above all of them...

I know, I'm weird, but I'm bored, so what can I say, lol.
