On the serious side...

I've come across a disturbing article that really paints a horrific picture of a gender washing network. Imagine if you will, a group of women with different hair colors, different styles, unique ideas of makeup usage. All endowed with intelligence, poise and confidence. Now imagine them working at Fox News. Review pictures of all the different female reporters. Pay attention to the commonalities between them. Gone are the nuances that made them different, original, unique. They are now all cookie cutter versions of the blonde, made up, blow dried reporter. As this article refers to them, they've been "Foxified". And what a shame that is.

The article can be found here. May you be as outraged and disgusted as I was.

  1. I saw an article somewhere about how freaking short all their skirts are, supposedly in an attempt to boost ratings. Whether for ratings or not, it's ridiculous. Lemme see if I can... yeah. http://www.ihatethemedia.com/fox-news-anchor-babes-short-skirts-video-photo Some of the images are repeated, but you get the point.

    This guy's video incorporates some clips that are... oh my gosh gotta be embarrassing for the woman. http://www.metacafe.com/watch/2627909/fox_news_female_short_skirts_get_ratings_over_cnn/

    I'm sorry, but any woman with any choice over her wardrobe who knows she's going to be wearing a skirt would pick one long enough to at least go most of the way to her knees if she knows anyone's going to be able to see her from the front, especially if she's on a national news network.
