Naomi Klein Debunks Bush's offshore drilling plans

Fox Business Channel has an “after-the-market-closes” show, called Happy Hour, which appears to exist in a surreal space of unreality: bar setting, complete with a bartender and business men with their brewskis in the background, host Rebecca Gomez looking like she’s ready to hook up and whose only research before interviewing Naomi Klein appears to be skimming the reviews of The Shock Doctrine on Amazon, and to top it off, guest host Eric Bolling admits to not only being an oil trader, but never looking at the book! That’s respect, I’ll tell you, for the collective intelligence of their viewers as well as Naomi.

Still, with all the obstacles FBC places in the way of having an intelligent discussion, Klein manages to get in some great points that leave the embarrassingly ill-informed Faux hosts with little to do but sputter inanities like “Naomi, do you like capitalism?”

"She's feisty, isn't she?" What a moron Gomez is. Bolling is no better. Klein is very smart and she has important things to say. But Fox viewers just want to be confirmed in their biases, such as that such a thing as free market capitalism exists.

This is the first time I've heard her Shock Doctrine idea. Suddenly so many things make sense! Wow.

Why do intelligent people agree to go on Fox? They get shouted down, bowled over, and treated like idiots. What's there to gain? No one watching Fox is going to buy her book, they were just told by the slut and the monkey that the book is contrary to Fox(Neo-Con) rhetoric and therefore crap.

I wish people would just start declining to go on Fox, and then tell every other show they do go on that they didn't go on Fox.

^not only fox viewers watch fox. the evidence is, well, not in front of your face, but behind your face. it's in your face. it IS your face. i am confused now but you know what i mean.

the idea of no fox viewer ever seeing a dissenting opinion scares me.
