The purpose of Faux News is to be the carnival clown, the over-the-top distraction that draws your attention away from the behind-the-scenes work of the neoconservative movement (the goal of which is to turn America into a fascist corporate state). They know full well that every syllable they broadcast is absolute bollocks, and they make every effort to maintain that charade.
Just FYI.
Wow. Anyone that has actually studied history and the progressive/socialist political movement in the US and the world throughout the late 19th and early 20th century would recognize how wrong you are. The fascist regimes of both Mussolini and H!tler were both true socialist states with a nationalist agenda. Both of those leaders were avowed socialists to the very end. Anyone that would attempt to make the case that fascists=neo-conservatives or any conservative for that matter, has no idea what they're talking about.
The particular news segment that dealt with the Mass Effect 'sex' scene was quickly debunked and had absolutely no effect on anything EA/BioWare did in ME2. None. Zilch. Nada.
As far as Fox News is concerned they're one single news outlet that caters to a specific audience. The rest of the alphabet networks have their own liberal agenda and can't be taken any more seriously than Fox. I'm constantly amused by the silly and obsessed knee jerk reaction to any reference to Fox News by the liberal/progressive/socialist community. It's an over-the-top, frothing at the mouth, self serving indignation that's divorced from reality. The only serious censorship that's going on in this country originates from the left side of the political spectrum. The political correctness movement is the absolute worst thing that ever happened to serious and honest dialogue. How the heck are you supposed to debate an issue when you're forbidden to even talk about it in the first place? That's a real bit of 'fascism' for you.
Just FYI.
