Dangit I was going to suggest that! I mean if he can bring reason to Fox he'd be able to fix the government. And while I'm dreaming big dreams, Podi can also invent the warp drive.AssassinJoe said:

Exactly! I got the sense that he's just anti National Endowment of the Arts in general and he and FOX News were just using the lightning rod of video games as a way to attack funding of the arts.The Great JT said:
The thing about FOX is that they're not actually a new station any more, they're 'infotainment'. The problem with this is that a lot of people haven't realized this, and still honestly believe every word FOX speaks, regardless of how outlandish or obviously full of bullshit those words happen to be.
I can't make up my mind if I enjoyed the comic or the description more.
Thank you for that. Finally someone that hits the nail on the head about Fox News. I imagine that to a professional news reporter Fox News is an embarrassment and an insult.

You know, there are parts of the channel that I watch and enjoy... mostly the actual news stuff and not the opinion programs. And the parts that I just roll my eyes at or avoid altogether.
This, however, was one of the worst so-called debates I have ever seen. We had better debates back in 9th grade speech class. While I don't always agree with the "Fox News is evil" bandwagon, I think this segment warranted most of the reaction it's getting.

The comic wasn't that entertaining, and it's honestly getting to be very old hat to make fun of FOX News these days.
Next time something like this comes around, try making fun of Rupert Murdoch, the man who manages both FOX News and News Corp, which is the company that subsidizes FOX Entertainment and FOX News.
Or, better yet, why not do a backroom comic, written in the writer's room?

I don't really read CAD so I didn't even see this until you posted it here.. That being said, I submit my stuff around the same time they posted this. I work on my comic for at least 2-3 days before I submit. So I couldn't have seen it coming..TwistedEllipses said:
Also given the nature of webcomics, this was bound to happen eventually.
I gotta say, I was actually a little interested in what they were saying but it seemed like the second Asbury started talking he just went off on a tangent and I don't even have a clue what he's talking about.
It's just silly, considering Ambrozy just stated commercial games AREN'T given federal funding and then Asbury starts busting out ridiculous statements like 43 cents of every dollar is given to the video game industry and...
I mean I don't even know why I'm posting... can we get rid of Fox News now?

Oh god, that interview was hilarious. Ambrozy really held his ground well, I thought. That bald guy started at videogames and took it almost directly to "41 CENTS OFF OF EVERY DOLLAR! PAIN AND SUFFERING! MAYBE THERE IS NO TOMORROW!" I wish those weren't direct quotes.
It was all very obviously a pointless exercise in knee-jerk reactionary anti-gaming drivel, but Ambrozy managed to turn it on its head, at least as much as he could within the confines of their toxic punditry.
