Kinky

And pure gold (errr...golden).

I was just listening to Fox News Sunday, and Senator Kit Bond (R-MO) (in keeping with the grand press tradition, his party affiliation, as a Republican, must be identified--only Democrats are exempt and partyless in situations like this) just pronounced Peshawar as "Pee Shower." Evan Bayh and Chris Wallace are smiling, but obviously say nothing.

I don't really watch those channels and i'm unclear as to why they relay it here, except to boost the murdoch cable monopoly's channel count. (It doesn't help, the $45 basic package still only has about a dozen channels, most playing repeats of the simpsons.)

Was this on that fake news program that i've heard they're doing or the poorly written comedy show?

I wrote that it was on Fox News Sunday, their Sunday morning talking-heads show (their version of, e.g., Meet the Press).

Adrasteia, what was the point of mislabling the Murdoch franchise a "monopoly" in cable TV? They aren't.

The exact same signal is distributed on Optus, Foxtel, and Austar, for the exact same price. By random chance you're correct though, the technical term is oligopoly.
