I've been watching Fox News lately. Not really intentionally, but because the YMCA seems to always have it on. Today one of their stories was advocating going easy on crooked CEOs because all the damage has been done already and the remaining corporate officers have all learned their lessons. I don't even get mad at Fox or Bill O'Reilly anymore; I just sort of shake my head. I've realized that's just the way they are. It's like the parable of the frog and the scorpion. I just remind myself that their job isn't what we assumed it was. They're not there to report the news. They're there to advance an agenda. Once I got over that hump, I just stopped getting mad at them.
