FOX gets large on Times Square

by Adam Finley, posted Oct 11th 2006 7:02PM

fox newsSo you love FOX's news and sports programming, but watching it on your tiny television screen just kind of leaves you unfulfilled, doesn't it? Well, this is the time to rejoice, FOXheads, because News Corp has taken over the gigantic Panasonic Astrovision screen in New York's Times Square and will be airing three hours of live programming every day, including full hours of Fox and Friends, FOX Report with Shepard Smith and FOX5's Good Day New York. Sports fans will be treated to live broadcasts of Major League Baseball's League Championship and World Series, the Daytona 500, and football coverage from the NFL and the College Bowl series. News Corp took over access of the screen from NBC on October 1. Someday I hope to have enough money to put my own content on that screen. I'm thinking 24 hours a day of myself having dental work performed.

Elliott, they only did that to aggravate you, because they're evil and never make mistakes.

erroneous,

Why don't you watch a different network, and then start your own blog and detail every mistake they make. In the mean time, I'm going to continue discussing the fact that Fox News "accidentally" listed Mark Foley (suspected sex offender, R.-Florida) as a Democrat on their broadcast.

Well, I'd rather have some of Fox News reporters on that big screen than Brian Williams - thats a scary thought, maybe not as scary as Bill O'Reilly up there though.

Yup, because we all love to stand there watching tv in the middle of the street!

The ubiquitous jab at Fox News. Every. Single. Time.

On a lighter note Adam, I'd love to see Mike Rowe doing a root canal on you in mega-size-o-vision. Just limit it to dental work though, will ya? I don't want any oversized colonoscopies or boils the size of Mt. Aetna being lanced. That kind of stuff could cause widespread panic not seen outside a King Kong movie.

And America takes one more step toward 1984.
