I just grabbed these top 10, most read “headlines” from the fox/onion website -( it is now 6 p.m. pacific time on July 25, 2008 in the great state of Californy) – and had an interesting thought.

of course i’ve been on an extremely quiet, almost secret mission to unofficially rename that alleged “news outlet” with a more descriptive one (fox/onion, see above), but all of a sudden it dawned on me, maybe this is truly the comedy channel for those who simply don’t “get” the comedy channel.

really, look at the “breadth of subjects” scorecard:

sex, (including, but not limited to; Democratic adulterers, rape, lesbians, cheaters, late-night encounters, celebrity couples, Christians, and coeds), aliens, planes with holes in them, astronauts, murder-suicide, “spam,”  explosions, fugitives, diving planes, 911 calls, terrified miners and, of course, missing white girls and, special bonus for the day - colleague-eating bears.
