1. Are you prepared to publish home addresses online of people you don't agree with, subtly encouraging your readers to harass them with death threats, and when confronted with your actions, do it again? Are you fully prepared to play the victim when this happens to you?
2. Are you prepared to attack people on national television without doing the slightest bit of research as to the truth of your statements? Are you prepared to shamelessly lie about these people? (Don't worry, you'll never have to fear being challenged by an actual response!) Are you ready to go to ridiculous, embarrassing lengths to mock them?
3. Are you prepared to completely fabricate controversies, and when caught being completely wrong, refuse to apologize or admit error?
4. Do you have any qualms about gleefully sniggering over the divorce of someone you don't happen to like?
5. Are you willing to insinuate that a war hero's wounds were self-inflicted in order to hide the spotty military record of a Republican Presidential candidate?
6. Do you have any qualms about fanning the fires of racism?
7. Are you ready to distort and lie, regardless of how transparent your lies may be? (Hint: Don't forget to refuse to admit error again!)
8. Are you ready to publish a badly researched book defending one of the most shameful chapters in America's history?
9. Are you ready to follow it up with another sloppy book, full of cherry-picking and distortions? When you're directly confronted with a thorough dissection of this book, are you fully prepared to ignore any requests to response or debate?
10. Are you completely, utterly shameless?
Have we got a job for you!
Fox News Channel is testing another pilot on Sunday that will air following its experiment in news satire, ‘The ½ Hour News Hour.’ ‘It’s Out There,’ a half-hour of stories derived from blogs, will get a half-hour test run following Joel Surnow’s satirical take on news. [The show], fronted by conservative blogger-columnist Michele Malkin and former Clinton administration operative Kirsten Powers, will take on political and cultural issues enflaming the blogosphere.
Get ready for your closeup; you're FOX-Worthy!
