Fox News: ‘Blame Mr. Rogers!’
Fox News: ‘Blame Mr. Rogers!’
This morning, Fox and Friends asked, “Why is it at the end of every term, these kids who on the bubble…they come in and beg for extra credit so they can get an A?” Citing a report by a university professor, Fox speculated one possible answer: “Blame Mr. Rogers! Because Mr. Rogers had an optimistic message where everyone was special even if they didn’t deserve it.” During the segment, one chyron read: “Mr. Rogers’ Mixed Message: ‘You’re Special.’” Another chyron asked: “Is Mr. Rogers Ruining Kids?: Sense of Entitlement.” Watch it:
The late Fred Rogers was the highly acclaimed host of the children’s television show, Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood, and was a tireless advocate for children. Fox’s Brian Kilmeade said “that man unintentionally did a whole generation or two a disservice.”
These guys are really desperate. Mr. Rogers? Gimme a break.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:46 pmWhy are these lame-assed wankers digging up a dead man to spit on his body?
Mr Rogers loved kids more than anyone.
Jesus christ.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:47 pmWell, he is kind of a pussy!
July 6th, 2007 at 4:49 pmOk. What literary archetype was Laura Palmer?
July 6th, 2007 at 4:50 pmI noticed Iraq was not mentioned once………therefore it the segment was a SMASHING SUCCESS.
Sleep Rape-Public-Can Sheeple…………..SLEEP.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:50 pmHa ha ha ha ha ha!
How long till they start kicking Santa Claus too?
July 6th, 2007 at 4:50 pmI feel only pity for people so dead inside that they do not think all children are “special”.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:52 pmMr. Rogers was the most kindest, gentlest soul and his message that every person was unique and special is true!
Imagine the effect on children if we tell them they’re all dumb shits and they have nothing to offer.
I can’t believe I’m posting this but Mr. Rogers is a great role model.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:52 pmHeather: and just what makes all children “special”?
July 6th, 2007 at 4:53 pmAttacking the beloved dead, a new low.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:53 pmStunningly weird.

Comment by Frank M — July 6, 2007 @ 4:53 pm
Don’t take it personally, guy. I don’t think she meant it in the same way that you’re “special,” with the short bus and all.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:56 pmDon Chance, a finance professor at Louisiana State University is now a Childhood Development expert. FOX digs up all these off the wall, insecure and desperate-to-publish profs whenever it needs to find justification for their shit.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:56 pmMr. Rogers was a dick in real life….but that doesn’t mean his message needs to be hijacked and distorted by Faux.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:57 pmI thought you liberals were all against innocence.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:58 pm#16 Do you have a citation?
July 6th, 2007 at 4:59 pmCan’t wait ’til they expose Big Bird for his lack of courage (he is yellow, afterall). The Count will be next for discouraging use of multiplication tables. Ernie and Bert are encouraging same-sex marriage. Don’t get me started on Elmo the Terrorist Supporter.
FOX Sensationalism, the microphone-feedback of ‘What is Patriotism?’, is owned by an Austrailian. It’s entertainment, not “News”.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:59 pma child who feels special is not necessarily spoiled. that comes from the gratuitous excess of buying of toys.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:59 pmmister rogers did not believe in commercialism or crap culture, two hallmarks of big business.

(SIDE NOTE: Taste of Chicago, here I come!!!)
Enjoy the weekend, everyone!!!
July 6th, 2007 at 4:59 pmWhile we’re indulging in a game of “Fantasyland” (what would one expect from a fake news program like Fox??) why don’t we place blame on the whole bunch: Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, Jimminy Crickett, Howdie Doody, and Princess SummerFallWinterSpring??
I guess they have no one left to blame but fictitious characters because it’s beginning to look like they’ve distilled down to “blaming themselves” finally. Blaming a fictional character is essentially blaming themselves for all intents & purposes.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:59 pmFrank M,
You thought?
July 6th, 2007 at 4:59 pmAs usual you thought wrong.
Well, since the entire american populace is engaged in a war on Foch Snooze, it’s only fitting that they lash out at fictitious boogeymen, isn’t it?
July 6th, 2007 at 5:00 pmBlame his sweaters.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:00 pm#17: I thought you liberals were all against innocence.
Oh? Why in heaven’s name would you think that?
What a doughbrained thing to say.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:00 pmWithin a year I believe Fox News will be so irrelevant and obsolete that they’ll just vanish completely from the radar. Right now, no with any sense of credibility or self-respect will appear on their programming which says a bunch.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:01 pmIf any other station ran this story FOXNEWS would point out that Fred Rogers was an ordained minister and accuse them of an “Attack on Christianity”.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:01 pm#18 - I grew up in Pittsburgh. My mom knew a co-worker of Fred Rogers….he was an arrogant prick just like Bob Hope pretended not to be.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:01 pmIf this is the best Fox news can do, methinks they’re in heap big trouble!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:02 pmLet’s not forget that Mr TopemHat of Sodor Island is a capitalist pig and fascist whose only interest is that the damn trains make sure they are being useful!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:02 pmThis takes the cake, doesn’t it…..if they ever believed themselves to be a legitimate news program, this cinches the deal against that once and for all. They will never live this one down.
Guess they had to run something to counter what’s happening today on all fronts….DeadEye Dick is looking like the storm is gathering all around him.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:03 pmI remember watching a show years ago that was something like “punked” where they set up Mr. Rogers in a hotel room where nothing was as he asked for it and nothing worked. The wrong bed in a smoking room with a television that didn’t work etc. etc. He took the whole thing with absolute grace and humility.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:03 pmOf course he’s being attacked, evil cannot tolerate purity.
We will have to fight Mr. Rogers in his grave or we will have to fight him here!
Where’s glen beck and billo to kick the dead guy? They are missing out on all the fun. And Ann Coultergeist should be here, too. DNA-loaded skank cocktail dress and all.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:04 pmJimmy Z ~ My mom played accordian for a hillbilly radio show in Des Moines Iowa in the late 30’s, starring none other than the biggest asshole in radio at that time, one Ronnie Reagan.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:04 pmEven bringing a second-rate station like Fox up for discussion makes me feel like barfing. Time to flit on to bigger and more relevant topics.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:04 pmupside00!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:05 pmROFLMAO!!!
Since many FOX viewers raised their kids with Mr. Rogers, this might not be such a smart move.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:05 pmIf you are not against innocence why are you for stuff like sex before marriage, abortion and children without dads?
July 6th, 2007 at 5:05 pmThe Fox take on kindly Fred Rogers’ efforts to help preschoolers w/their sense of self esteem is beyond laughable. My grandsons love him. His program sure beats a lot of the dreck on commercial tv for kids that age. Rogers was a clergyman BTW.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:06 pm#34 Veritas
But remember… it is Faux NoNooz that blames terrorist attacks on national medicine! SO wonder what else they will blame Mr. Rogers for?

Comment by Frank M
Don’t hurt yourself there, dude.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:07 pmoh! this has to be the last straw! I doubt the public at large would allow such a slander of Mr. Rogers to stand. Heh, I’m willing to bet a large segment of the public grew up with Mr. Rogers.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:07 pmProfessor Chance responded that he agreed that narcissism was a problem. No word on when he’s writing the article about this most heinous kind.
———————-
Professor Chance,
Mr. Zaslow,
With respect to “Blame It on Mr. Rogers: Why Young Adults Feel So Entitled” published July 5:
Many in America openly practice the narcissism that a supreme being who created the universe cares solely about this insignificant corner of an insignificant galaxy, and in fact this supreme being has nothing better to do than watch every move of each and every one of us from cradle to grave to determine our eternal disposition in the hereafter.
Some extrapolate this to declare homo sapiens as “special,” above nature not part of it, separate, made in the image of that supreme being, to the point they readily sacrifice the precious natural surroundings that give us life in the pursuit of wealth, consequences be damned. They deny Federal funding for life altering research using embryonic stem cells, they deny a woman equal footing in society by denying her sovereignty over her own body, they deny Terri Schiavo a dignified and private passing, they demonize people for who they love, they seek to replace the rigors of scientific inquiry with tenets of faith in our schools as we increasingly fail to compete in a global economy, they fight cruel wars tantamount to modern day Crusades — all this and more, and all rooted in this narcissism run amok.
Yet for all the incalculable damage that this narcissism has wrought, it elicits not a peep from vaunted financial services chairs at LSU nor the editorial staff of the Wall Street Journal.
But let Mister Rogers — Mister Rogers, for crying out loud — show a developing child a little love, a child who has to rely on television to bolster a preschool education these same people would otherwise deny, and the mammonists go apoplectic.
This makes Falwell’s ludicrous accusations that Tinky Winky is a gay role model pale by comparison. Evidently a positive self-image among the nation’s youth is the antithesis of oligarchic objectives, and must be repudiated no matter how ridiculous that repudiation.
I must say, to your credit, at least this time it wasn’t Clinton’s fault.
PS - Nice guitar page though, Dr. Chance.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:07 pm#37 I’m not against children without dads, or children with dads. I’m not against any children.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:07 pmNow the Reich Wingnuts are smearing Fred Rodgers.
They’ve gone insane.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:08 pmAlright, if no one else has the balls to say it, I will.
Mr. Rogers was creepy, of course he thought all children were “special,” especially little boys.
No one would want a “Mr. Rogers” in their neighborhood today, that is, no one who loves their children.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:08 pmHarumphing con saps know what’s wrong with this country: Disney! Specifically, “Snow White and the 7 Dwarves”: a whole generation of children grew up thinking Americans should “whistle while you work”! How absurd!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:09 pm…I can’t think of a single thing to say to this. Wait…actually I can. I’m channelling a good buddy of mine here….here it comes….
*DUMB$#!+!!!*
Now I see where Mr. P gets his talking points from…
July 6th, 2007 at 5:09 pmWhy is Frank J/M/? for pedophiles like Mark Foley?
July 6th, 2007 at 5:10 pmFrank M,
We’re talking about Faux attacking Mr. Rogers on this thread. You asked a question about why children are special, it was answered, go elsewhere to bait people into your talking points. Or better yet go elsewhere to master bait people.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:10 pmThe sense of entitlement has been growing in this country for MORE than 25 years. And narcissism???? Just look at the grand sense of entitlement going on at the White House, not to mention narcissism!!!!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:11 pmNo Fox noisemaker is fit to shine the shoes of Fred Rogers. A selfless, dedicated man, whose goal in life was to offer children a place to be safe and to understand the world around them. And yes, he looked for the something special in everyone, even those noisemakers at Fox. Our world is so much better off because of him. The children are so much more in confusion and peril without his calm and loving friendship. I still watch the reruns with the kids. Sometimes without!!
RUCerious you make no sense.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:11 pmYou black hearted evil trolls really have no shame do you.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:11 pmFrank J/M, neither do your strawmen.

July 6th, 2007 at 5:12 pm“Why is it at the end of every term, these kids who on the bubble…they come in and beg for extra credit so they can get an A?â€
Umm… maybe it’s because they know that an A is better than a B and, human nature being what it is, they want to do everything in their power to get the best grade possible? And they recognize that “begging for extra credit” is one way to achieve that goal?
Is that so friggin’ hard to understand?
Why does everything have to be an “entitlement” issue?
How do they even try to turn this into a social problem, let alone hint that it’s anyone’s “fault”?
July 6th, 2007 at 5:12 pmRUCerious you make no sense.

July 6th, 2007 at 5:13 pmMr. President you sure say some weird stuff. I personally never liked Mr. Rogers. I was a Three Stooges kinda guy. But this thread is about the endless stream of weird shit that that FOX morning show puts out.
I just read in Time Murdoch wants to buy the WSJ to go legit and eventually dump FOX. We all know where FOX is headed you dolt.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:14 pmI’m conservative and I like Mr. Rogers.
My 20 month old daughter watches his show almost everyday.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:14 pmInsanity is the synonym for “reichwingnuts” these days….so we’ve come to expect this behavior from the bunch of them.

So, Frank, you’ve never had sex? It’s a shame your mom never had an abortion, and if you have kids take it for granted they would be better off without their dad.

Comment by Frank M — July 6, 2007 @ 4:53 pm
I guess a simple answer that you can understand is God makes all children “special”.
What makes you say that there are children in the world who are not “special”? Do YOU have children? Are they special?
July 6th, 2007 at 5:15 pmTexas Democrat are you new here? Or is that a new handle you’re sporting?

It isn’t like school should be about the learning, now is it?
What’s wrong with allowing a student to work a little harder at something they need practice with to cement some learning in place.
It’s not like they’re not ‘earning’ the extra credit.
No, it’s about you, the almighty instructor, with the godlike power of issuing grades.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:15 pmFox is headed out…..or more appropriately, down the toilet. It’s already there but just doesn’t realize it yet….”and away go bubbles down the drain, RotoRooter!”.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:15 pmIt’s original, gotta admit that! After years of blaming Clinton, now they’ve found a new scapegoat….poor ole’ Mr. Rogers.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:16 pmIt’s not his fault you have a reading comprehension problem…..
Ah yes. You smug progressives. “They can’t read or understand us - stupid lower class slobs - but at least we know what’s good for them”.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:16 pmThose who are badmouthing the deceased Fred Rogers on this thread should read a few interviews w/someone who got his start working w/him behind the scenes on Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood- actor Michael Keaton. Nothing but praise from Keaton, who was then an unknown production assistant/gofer for Fred & Co.

People criticize kids for being lazy and stupid, but when they try to excel, they are still criticized.
They cannot win!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:17 pm#37 Frank M
If you are not against innocence why are you for stuff like sex before marriage, abortion and children without dads?
Why are you for having sex with little kids, and beating your wives, and cheating on them? With gay hookers?!!!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:17 pmThe right-wing oligarch’s objectives rely on a “gammas” in society. If every child is special and every child deserves opportunity to excel, the “alpha” class is threatened. These people truly believe they are better and more deserving than you, and that their children are better and more deserving than yours. Fox certainly has no choice except to embrace this putrid belief.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:17 pm#26 Within a year I believe Fox News will be so irrelevant and obsolete that they’ll just vanish completely from the radar. Right now, no with any sense of credibility or self-respect will appear on their programming which says a bunch.

July 6th, 2007 at 5:22 pmIn my experience, those who behave with the most irritating sense of entitlement are the wealthy. They expect a lot from the government, and they get what they pay for. They expect a lot from those who work for them, or they hire an illegal Mexican or offshore the job to India. They expect a lot from the right wing media to keep the masses numb with tragic plights of rich white girls writ large and nationwide while Rome burns. They hold out their hands for tax breaks, and though they’ve benefitted the most from the system they’ve set up, and though they have the most to protect, they offer nothing in return.
And then they have the unmitigated audacity to complain about the narcissism of others. It’s stunning.

There’s the tip-off. You went way overboard trying to convince us you’re not gay. You even capitalized “Faggot”. Yep, you’re gay alright.
And, of course, the pedophilia goes without saying. After all, you’re a conservative.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:25 pmI may be wrong, but Fox isn’t too far off the mark. A study was done not too long ago that studied a generation of kids who were raised with the whole “I’m unique and special” method of parenting and learning. The kids grew into adults with an inflated sense of self-entitlement and an attitude that everything should be easy and handed to them.
I haven’t actually read the study so I can’t comment on whether or not Mr. Roger’s was named or referenced.

July 6th, 2007 at 5:43 pmI haven’t actually read the study so I can’t comment on whether or not Mr. Roger’s was named or referenced.
Comment by Rosencrantz
Kids probably are being raised with some sense of entitlement, it’s been part of our culture for a while — I’m not saying it’s right, just saying it’s fact.
PARENTS have the greatest effect on their children, not Mr Rogers for 1/2 hour a day.
The War on Mr Rogers is totally bogus.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:43 pmStinkyBreeches, yer probably right, but it’s a wierd coincidence that they both now have Ignor(ant) lists.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:44 pmMr. Rodgers gave his young audience Respect for themselves and their unique personal worth. You are all Loveable and Capable was his message.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:45 pmWhat’s the alternative.??Cartoons with Super-powered hero’s who Blast Away the Evil ones. Sounds like a recipe for willing cannon fodder to me.
Frank M. gets his undies in a bunch when he’s called gay, but doesn’t object to being called a bedwetting bootlicker. That speaks volumes about these rightwing nutjobs.

Don’t discount the plummeting mental capacity of all of the trolls. Something’s up — maybe they got this batch of Kool-Aid from China or something, but there’s some kind of delerium that’s infecting all of them. Maybe Frank really is Jake and he is just getting stupider by the day.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:48 pmThe first thing I thought of when I saw this about entitled weenies I thought of the atheist armageddon blog.
Then I read about King Fetus and thought about how many parents break into a sirens wail when their precious dennis menace prodigies arent skritched behind the ear while having a golden star pasted to their foreheads to wear prouldly home.
After these thoughts bounced around the cerebral cortex at light speed…the blur cleared.
Mr Rogers didn’t teach these kids such college genius as beer bonging and taking a few wobbly laps on the peddle and puke trail before the educated spigots drained perfectly good liquid granola at their parents expense on the manicured grounds.
They simply mimic their elders!
July 6th, 2007 at 5:48 pmThis is unbelievable on so many levels.
Even my mom the Republican loved Mr. Rogers.
And hey that sense of entitlement has nothing to do w/Mr. Rogers or regarding children as “special” in and of themselves (e.g. the inherent worth and dignity of every person, including little persons). It has to do with teaching them how to earn things, and that we are all good at different things but not so good at others. That’s life. But Mr. Rogers hardly transmitted a sense of entitlement.
And speaking of entitlement and a group of people for whom there seem to be no consequences: look no farther than the neo-cons in the Bush Administration.
These people are just so psychologically twisted on so many levels.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:49 pmPicking on a dead man to justify your stupid argument is utterly tasteless.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:50 pmya know it’s bad enough that this crack pot from down south wrote this shit but even worse that fox is spreading his message of hate for both my entire generation and a kindly Minister who spent his life try to make the world a better place.
It’s official, Fox hates Christians who don’t walk lockstep with Pat Robertson et al.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:51 pmYou would think FOX could find time for something other than hate.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:51 pmAh yes, Mr. Rogers killed our meritocracy. This from the folks who put Regent Law School graduates in the Department of Justice.

Ok. you got me. There ARE other alternatives. You won’t get me to criticize a genious animator like Chuck Jones.
By the way…have you seen the ICE AGE Movies with the prehistoric raccon creature chasing the acorn??? Definitely an hommage to Mr. Jones and his Coyote.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:54 pmMaybe Frank really is Jake and he is just getting stupider by the day.
That is certainly possible. I still find it strange that Jake - posting under another nickname and knowing that ignore-lists are typical of the original Jake - would bring up ignore lists in such a blatantly obvious way.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:55 pmTelling a child he/she is special and worth something is not the same as telling a child he/she is entitled to everything he/she wants. Mr. Rogers didn’t spoil children, he validated them. There’s a big difference. I never once saw Mr. Rogers tell children that they need to beg for what they didn’t earn.
Children get far more of their sense of entitlement from another part of television — advertising. Further enhanced by parents who can’t say no to anything.
Fox never really had much of a grip, but they are losing what tenuous hold on reality they ever had by broadcasting stuff like this and the claim that universal health care breeds terrorism. What’s next — recycling newspapers leads to atheism?
July 6th, 2007 at 5:57 pmWe should not have grades because that will make the children that are not as bright feel bad, and every child is special and important in their own way. We cannot hurt their fragile egos with trivial things such as grades and rewarding achievement. School is to learn about your fellow man, not find out who is best or smartest.
July 6th, 2007 at 5:58 pmThis is beyond belief. This shows their craveness clearly, and it doesn’t speak well of the trolls here either. If they are so desperate that they have to attack Mr Rogers, then there is nothing anyone can say to them that will make any difference. They are lower than whale shit in the Mariannas trench, and that is low.

I likened the movie to biblical texts. Fear, Floods, False Prophets, Materialism, The Tree of life (the nut) And the ever receding goal to find out what God [sometimes called Nut] and life is all about.
In the end the prehistoric Squirrel/Raccoon almost grasp what he so desired, only to be brought back to life and to begin all over again.

July 6th, 2007 at 6:08 pmThis is too much.
July 6th, 2007 at 6:10 pmIt isn’t like school should be about the learning, now is it?
What’s wrong with allowing a student to work a little harder at something they need practice with to cement some learning in place.
It’s not like they’re not ‘earning’ the extra credit.
No, it’s about you, the almighty instructor, with the godlike power of issuing grades.
Comment by RUCerious
Why should some student get an extra opportunity to raise their grade. What about the students that earned the higher grade based on the work assigned? Doesn’t that do them a dis-severice and watering down their achievement? What about the students that don’t complain and whine to get their grade raised? Why should only the complainers get another chance?

° Can’t Win °
I started to cry, they put gin in my cup
I started to crawl, and they swaddled me up
I got up and run, they said “Easy, son,
Play up, play the game”
They told me to think and forget what I’d heard
They told me to lie and they questioned my word
They told me to fail, better sink than sail,
Just play the game
Oh, towers will tumble and locusts will visit the land
Oh, a curse on your house and your children and the fruit of your hand
They said “You can’t win. You can’t win.
You sweat blood. You give in.
You can’t win. You can’t win.
Turn the cheek. Take it on the chin.
Don’t you dare do this. Don’t you dare do that”
We shoot down dreams, we stiletto in the back
Oh the nerve of some people, the nerve of some people,
The nerve of some
I don’t know who you think you are, who you think you are
Oh what kind of mother would hamstring her sons?
Throw sand in their eyes and put ice on their tongues
Ah better to leave than stay here and grieve
And play the game
Don’t waken the dead as you sleepwalk around
If you have a dream, brother, hush, not a sound
Just stand there and rust, die if you must
But play the game
Oh, if we can’t have it, why should a wretch like you?
Oh, it was drilled in our heads, now we drill it into your head too.
They said “You can’t win. You can’t win.

Well.. they have a point about expectation.
The grade inflation at Harvard is just hilarious. I had harder classes in high school.
July 6th, 2007 at 6:25 pmUsing Mr. Rogers as the reason of spoiled ungrateful children with feelings of entitlement such as myself is quite an oversimplification of the issue, but I’m glad that it isn’t only me who feels so special without any justification to feel that way.
I hated that show as a child, such a bore, and it was rather creepy to me as well.

Comment by Cpt. Crepitus
In what case? The professor here is talking about students that are not happy with their grades so they beg for some extra credit? He is not referring to extra credit available and outlined in the syllabus. Read the article, the study was because students thought they deserved more than their grade said, so they petitioned for a higher grade via extra credit.
July 6th, 2007 at 6:27 pmDear CNN,
Are you sure this is the “news” network that you want to emulate? I mean, seriously.
It’s Mr. Roger’s fault now? What a bunch of temper tantrum, whiny little brats these NeoCons are.
July 6th, 2007 at 6:29 pmYes, because kids used to accept bad grades with stiff upper lip and renewed sense of determination.
This is a new low.
These people are sick.

If you insist on trying to argue, at least try to do it like a grownup — don’t distort, especially after your distortions have been exposed already. It makes you look stupid.
July 6th, 2007 at 6:40 pmAt the risk of repeating myself, timmy: it was a stupid editorial decison at Fox to feature it as if it is legitimate scholarly research. It isn’t. Don Chance is a finance professor at LSU, not a childhood development expert.

I never cared for the show, but it was obvious that Mr. Rodgers truly cared for children. Why not blame the Three Stooges for violence in society? How can anybody at Faux even participate in this charade? What ‘Professor’ came up with this report? Did the Skipper and Gilligan provide extra input?
July 6th, 2007 at 6:47 pmThere is no difference in this case
You’re trying to avoid my point: you said WSJ “reported on it.” They didn’t. You lied, or you are ignorant of the distinction between reportage and op-ed. That’s very lazy thinking, kid.
