When women join the “fair and balanced” network, they get “Foxified”

`

Fox News is a modern day Stepford factory for accomplished women. By turning professors and authors into porn star doppelgangers, the network effectively communicates what women say is not as important how they appear. – Source

I’ll give the devil his due. News reporting on TV used to be a rather somber if not dull affair. It was done as a public service and was never meant to be a revenue center. That was until the corporations and Rupert Murdoch came around.

Murdoch took is knowledge in the supermarket tabloid business; the lowest common denominator that sex sells, and constructed the #1 TV news organization around it. The male demographics that normally would not watch news, now flock to faux everyday. They may not be more informed but they do get their daily dose of titillation.

Faux has found no shortage of women will to prostitute themselves for what appears to be a hefty pay check. Professional female journalists like Christiane Amanpour, Elenor Cliff, Nancy Dickerson, Katie Couric, Candy Crowley, Connie Chung, Sawyer, Diane, Lesley Stahl, Jessica Savitch, et al: eat your hearts out, the faux femmbots are here.

Since the vast majority of conservatives are "old" white males over the age of 40, this is to be expected.

So you are jealous that you are not appealing enough for Fox news to hire you?

I noticed the left wing rag left out these women-

Maria Bartiromo
Andrea Tantaros
Carol Alt
Michelle Malkin
Jeanine Pirro
Brenda Buttner

So that makes black women under 40 liberals? Where are the hunky guys for me to enjoy on the other networks?
Hey guys, there is a market out there. Instead of complaining, bulk up and study up and get hired. We'll watch, but only if your brain matches your looks, which, incidentally, may or may not be the case over at Fox.

So your position is that attractive women aren't intelligent or truthful? That's an interesting outlook.

The poor envy the rich and the ugly envy the beautiful. Its part of human nature I guess.

Not sure what's the OP point?

Hard to argue a war on women. Fox and by extension, Fox viewership, hear plenty of feminine voices.

Difficult to make the case Fox women aren't serious journalists; Megyn Kelly has been crushing it. Did you see the Cheney interview? Jeanine Pirro likewise makes as strong a case as any journalist in the country. No puffball questions for our friends or giving those we agree with a pass. These Fox women are schooling Katie Couric, Candy Crowley, David Gregory and virtually every other network anchor who claim to be journalists. Mainstream network faces are nothing more than propaganda spokesperson's for the left. The left media fail their duty by ignoring those in power. Dick Cheney is no longer in power, but Obama, Holder, etc. are. Yes, we know leftist journalists can be tough on Republicans, but can they be tough on Democrats? Especially, when Democrats are in power?

The left complain about the internet, while their media empire crumbles. But, Fox is growing, because they attempt fair and balanced. CNN isn't 24-hour news anymore, because they weren't news in the first place. Play it straight and prosper, bias and lose. It's as simple as that.

It makes the case that network news goal is propaganda and are not free-market, money-making companies, because the formula for making it is to play it straight and ask tough questions of those in power, but they refuse. Even when it would mean success and profitability, the other networks lean hard-left.

Its interesting to watch so many people reach to try to come up with a counterpoint for the OP. So far none of them have been able to without making leaps of logic that the OP never stated.

However to counter the OP. I don't see anything wrong with attractive people reporting the news.

What would anyone expect from a news crew that down plays muticulturalism. Thank god for bleach.

Dang, what a remarkably offensive bit of sexist blather. Is it jealousy, or just that women must fit certain stereotypes, lest they be considered whores by the wacked out left.

So a beautiful woman who works for fox is prostituting herself, but an unattractive woman working for one of the more liberal competitors is legitimate. Certainly you aren't this narrow-minded.

Fair enough. Like I said, sexuality sells however, if you look at the pictures, Fox News requires the women there to all basically look the same. It's my opinion that Fox is guilty of the sexual objectification of women. Other people just call it sexism; to wit: 20 More Examples Of Sexism On Fox News

yeah, humans are still animals. Its one of the reasons we have so much trouble having a peaceful and stable society. We still have instincts that are more appropriate for a less technological and abundant environment. Its an unfortunate fact.

The blonde dye jobs and overly made up faces on Fox News women are indicative of a culture dominated by caucasians and capitalism, keeping women in line by rewarding them when they conform to the rules. It’s a reflexive, but still clever, way to keep women in their place and uphold the power structure as it is.

I think this line from the article speaks pretty directly to what I was saying.

The author isn't interested at all in what these women have accomplished in their lives. She's just slamming them for their appearance. Seems pretty damned sexist to me.
