how about a taste of their own crap,
Fox news is promoting cancer wants you to smoke till you die./sarc
Fox News responded to the announcement that CVS would no longer sell cigarettes by criticizing the pharmacy chain and leveling attacks at President Obama after he expressed support for the company's decision.On February 5, CVS Caremark announced that it would stop selling cigarettes and other tobacco products at its pharmacy stores by the beginning of October.The move was met with praise from health organizations like the American Cancer Society and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the nation's largest philanthropy dedicated to public health.President Obama also weighed in on the decision with a statement of support, saying it was a "profoundly positive" move and will help advance efforts "to reduce tobacco-related deaths, cancer, and heart disease, as well as bring down health care costs."As if on cue, Fox News responded to Obama's praise by manufacturing a controversy over the CVS decision.On Fox's The Real Story, host Gretchen Carlson approached the CVS decision with suspicion and a remarkably uninformed premise, asking, "Is it OK legally ... to restrict tobacco availability in a private store like this?"She questioned her guests as to whether they would continue shopping at CVS and observed that, "For people who smoke, you know, they have a right to buy cigarettes. It's not illegal."
you know they had to get their daily jab at Pres. in there, now they are telling CVS and others "is it legal" then in the next breath without confirmation "it's not legal", this is your Fox news on something or maybe i'm wrong and they are just crazy and finding it harder to use hyperbole in their stories they are already maxed out fakes getting ahead of themselves?
On Your World, Fox host and VP Neil Cavuto noted that President Obama supported CVS' decision, and speculated that CVS was "getting scaredy cat" because "with the health care law and the changes and everything else," selling tobacco products "didn't look good." In the same segment, Fox Business host Melissa Francis expressed concern that snack foods and alcohol could be cut from CVS shelves next.And on Fox's The Five, co-host Dana Perino tried to use the decision to attack President Obama's signature health care law, saying, "I just wonder, is this President Obama now saying that corporations are allowed to have values and express them? Because if that's the case, maybe corporations then don't have to provide contraceptive care to their employees or their health plans. And the Supreme Court justices might want to think about that."
can you get your head around the lack of common sense that permeates those studios, no wonder they are so effective with their base they are even more challenged then they, could it be they actually believe the words that are coming out of their mouths, i mean off the teleprompter?
ignorance is bliss and they are some blissful SOB's, btw aren't they in a perpetual state of freak out since Nov. 2008?
