Fox News Louisiana: Cog in the Republican Slime Machine

Well, isn't that convenient?

Fox stations across Louisiana have suddenly decided to get into the 'news' business just as Louisiana gets set to enter its statewide election cycle.

It's particularly interesting here in Lafayette where the Fox affiliate has been mired in bankruptcy proceedings but somehow managed to add the cost of a news bureau to its balance sheet.

The parent of these efforts — Fox News — has proven itself to be a propaganda machine that has no credibility as a news organization.

Guess it's just a coincidence that Fox decides to launch a news operation across the state at the same time that other national Republican organizations have targeted Louisiana as fertile ground for takeover.

Yep. Just a coincidence. Sort of like all those emails of Karl Rove being erased from the Republican National Committee's servers, no?
