Jingo-bells, Jingo-bells...

It must be Christmas all the time at FOX NEWS. I wonder if they ever take down the tree. You live in an alternative reality of invented truth. You make money like crazy and it doesn't matter if you get caught making stuff up. Worst case, if you really screw up, you get the special Republican platinum parachute: you somehow get hugely rewarded for a flameout.

What a cool world. Remember that Miller guy who yelled "he lies" or such at the president? The money poured in on him. The system incentivises insanity. It's this way for the FOX people, like Glenn Beck. It was this way for the neocons. For Bush. For the people who caused the financial collapse. What do you have to do to get fired or demoted or lose money? 

In their world there are no consequences. Not for them. There are for us.
