Leaving Fox Snooze
Fox News has suspended Rick and Newt,
Freeing them up for presidential pursuits.
Fox doesn’t want to contaminate
Either potential candidate
With what passes on that network for news.

The Ailes Fail
Who among us would not be delighted
To see Fox News’ Roger Ailes get indicted?
It was Kerik’s girl-toy
Who ratted out the old boy,
Who was just trying to keep Rudi G. from being slighted.
60 Crappy Minutes
It’s true, “60 Minutes” turned into caca,
The night Anderson interviewed Lady Gaga.
Cooper’s wasted his potential,
Let’s yank his press credentials,
And put an end to this sorry TV saga.
CNN’s Punching Bag
In Egypt, the opposition’s feeling super,
As they watch Mubarak circling the pooper.
But you’ve got to applaud his supporters
For whupping up on reporters
And beating the crap out of Anderson Cooper.
The Shameful Shibboleth
We all know Fox News and Glenn Beck are crazies,
Going around comparing liberals with Nazis.
Yeah, they’ve crossed the line,
And today in the Times
Murdoch caught hell from 400 rabbis.
Getting Over Olbermann
Ah, Keith, we hardly knew ye,
During your tenure at MSNBC.
‘Twas that evil Murdoch
Who put your head on the block,
But in doing so did he give us a senator-to-be?
Juan’s Ton o’ Merdre
Juan Williams is a sly Fox News analyst
Whose truthfulness makes him a fine panelist.
But when he said she has charisma,
Though her brain power’s dismal,
He must have known Sarah Palin would get pissed.
Now, Juan knows the career of a pundit
Is brief, and even more to his credit,
We don’t hear him wailin’
“I’ve pissed off Ma Palin!”
But he did mutter, “This is one ton of sh*t.”
Although Juan has come pretty far,
He knows it don’t pay to dis right-wing stars.
He’ll be singin’ the blues
As he exits Fox News,
But where to? He can’t go back to NPR!
The Unquenchable ‘O’
She’s often been called the Queen of TV,
A champion of the bored, failed and needy.
But now Oprah’s trying to triple
Rates for her new channel on cable —
She might not be a lesbian, but she sure is greedy!
Better Left Digitally Dead
Please save me from the Cult of Celebrity!
That clacking gaggle of pathos, bathos and calamity.
Why’d they bail out the Kardashians
And allow them to Twitter again?
Who cares? They’ll still be “digitally dead” to me.
Sneaky Weaky Leaks
Oh, the revelations of the Wikileaks!
Putin’s a bully! Berlusconi’s a freak!
But apparently banal insults
Is just the language of consuls,
Get over it already — turn the other cheek!
