Fox News Satire Targets Left's 'Sacred Cows'

Fox News Channel is preparing a new Saturday night comedy show tailored to its largely right-leaning audience.

Fox will tape two episodes of the yet untitled show and air them in late January, with the possibility that the program could become a weekly feature.

The show would take aim at "the sacred cows of the left? that don?t get lampooned very much by other comedy shows, according to Joel Surnow, co-creator of "24? and one of the executive producers of the new Fox program.

"It?s a satirical news format that would play more to the Fox News audience than the Michael Moore channel,? he told the Hollywood reporter.

"It would tip more right as ?The Daily Show? tips left.?

@Drnaline,
Those drops keep adding up pretty soon you have a full bucket. Unlike some others who have an empty one. It also helps to be Number 1.

When you ask a question, then answer it yourself, it is a one sided arguement only you could win. That is the same as talking to yourself.Very Happy

I asked a question, you never answered it directly. You seem to do a lot of that. Then you run around in a circle. Much like your doing now. Why, i have to assume it is beacuse you know not what your talking about. Or will not admit there is no number 1 rated democrat news program? Like you assume there is one for repugs. I'll ask again.

What's the number one cable news program/channel for democrats?

The runaround is the only answer i'll exspect as i think it is the only thing you are capable of.

And I'm saying how am I supposed to know and why should I care what Democrats watch. It isn't worth my time to research what Democrats watch.

The only posters I have seen that swear by Fox News are Republicans. This forum is a good example of that.Very Happy

@tumbleweed cv,
Who watches Fox News.

The New Yorker : online : content

The largest segment of cable-news viewers is made up of conservatives. According to a Pew Research Center poll, forty-six per cent of Fox viewers identify themselves as conservative, compared with forty per cent of CNN viewers. But, because Fox viewers are more intense, they watch seventy per cent more cable news than CNN viewers do. This intensity of viewing on Fox helps account for its ratings success, since length of viewing and not just total number of viewers is counted by the Nielsen ratings service. Fox's core viewers are conservatives, and they would seem to identify with Fox as their club for news.

@Drnaline,
Meanwhile

I'm sure the program will do fine and I'm sure the Fox faithful will love it. I don't watch these types of programs on any of the networks anyway

If there is something funny about Washington, let Fox go for it.
