Fox is a frequent manipulator of information and purveyor of misinformation. None of these TV channels represent the biggest problems in America.

The Fox News Channel started as a venue that was dishonest enough to perpetually portray Republican politics in a positive light. They are now essentially the media wing of the Republican Party, as well as a lobbyist for the party's increasing shift to right-wing positions.

No kidding. And 5. barbecued chicken on pizza. WTF? :eek: Oh yeah, and berry-flavored beers. And twenty flavors of vodka, for Chrissakes. Don't people know you're not supposed to taste it? :lol:

Hey, the Hawaiian pizza from Papa Murphy's is one of my favorites, as long as someone with young ears is around to hear the oven alarm.

I'm a reasonable person, a compassionate liberal. All people who like pineapple on their Pizza should have 72 hours to get their affairs in order, after which they will be escorted to the border by the PPP (Pineapple Pizza Patrol). Furthermore, members of the Jewish Defense League should be deputized to round up anyone who puts lettuce and mayo on a pastrami sandwich.

I believe in traditional food relationships. If God wanted pineapple on pizza, the Hawaiian Islands would be in the Mediterranean Sea.

Pineapple on pizza? Heh, don't go to Japan. They have potatoes on pizza, corn on pizza, shrimp on pizza, and even seaweed on pizza!
