Fox News: The Devil made him do it
April 20, 2007 by William K. Wolfrum
They report and you decide. In this case, they are reporting that the Virginia Tech massacre was just another battle between God and the Devil.
From Fox News Religion correspondent Lauren Green:
When unexplained violence takes center stage, we tend to turn to modern psychology to explain it. But there is an alternative explanation, one that has been played out in film, stage and writings since the beginning of history. Was Cho Seung-Hui schizophrenic … psychotic … manic-depressive? Or were the shooting deaths of 32 people, including Cho himself, at Virginia Tech University part of the ongoing struggle between God and Satan … good against evil … lightness and darkness?
So, what do you think? Was it “part of the ongoing struggle between God and Satan … good against evil … lightness and darkness?”
That sure would explain a lot if that were the case. Sadly, without proof, the only conclusion we can come to is that Fox News recognizes it’s average fan is, at heart, a cave dweller that lives in fear that the Devil may ruin their lives. you know, like George W. Bush.

FOX “news” taking a page out of Fred Phelps playbook? How cute.
Shorter Fock Snooze: “We’re just askin’. It’s not like we’re sayin’ it, that’s all.”
The fact that they had John Podheretz “contribute” to a video obit on Kurt Vonnegut may be proof that Fox News is actually “evil.”

Yup. When Vonnegut died, Podhoretz was one of the first to predict that there would be talk about funerals and such. Turns out Podhoretz was correct, which at least proves he’s not suffering from Stockholm syndrome. It’s still unclear whether Mr. Podhoretz dresses like a modest Muslim woman or like the non-Muslim woman he actually is.
