The following video has been placed on to this site, as You Tube removed it almost immediately.

The Simpsons v. the media.In its highly-publicized 400th episode last night, The Simpsons skewered Fox News and modern journalism. At one point, outraged news anchor Kent Brockman confesses to the world:

Nice one David.
Enjoyed that.

Friends, the press and the government are in bed together in an embrace so intimate and wrong, they could spoon on a twin mattress and still have room for Ted Koppel. Journalists used to questions the reasons for war and expose abuse of power. Now, like toothless babies, they suckle on the sugary teat of misinformation and poop it into the diaper we call the 6:00 News. Demand more of your government. Demand more of your press.
Watch it:

Thanks so much for posting that! I can't believe it aired on Fox. Do the Simpsons have a tight hold around what can be censored from the show?

I liked the one where the had Bob Dole and Bill Clinton holding hands and telling people they could choose either but both were the same.
Very true, there is not a rizla between Hilary and Bush, McCain, Guiliani, etc
