Sesame Street mocks Fox News with "Pox News," conservative blogger not amused

haha god this is funny and so true

Pox News! awesome. i'm so going to use that!

Ha ha, trashy news show. It's funny because it's true.

You learn so much by watching Sesame Street

He he, good ole Oscar.

Couldn't have said it better myself!

OK Trolls, Tell us how this is Presedent Obama's fault and that Big Bird is a commie.

Pay back for trying to kill public broadcasting?

Nice.

Leave it to SS to give foxnews a shot I wonder iBeck will go after Big Bird like he did ACORN www.twitter.com/Makavelligiga

Looks like people are starting to get their balls back (sexism unintended). This bodes well for our future. Go Sesame Street!

awesome!

Andrew Breitbart is getting his panties in a bunch about a joke. Kids don't even get the reference, and adults that do shouldn't take it any further than satire. Oscar was reporting for GNN (which is supposed to be CNN), however no liberal bloggers have decried the show for mocking CNN.

The real issue here is that this guy takes conservative politics so seriously he can't even enjoy a joke without making it an attack against Right-Wing politics by the Leftist Media. Since when did Sesame Street, a show geared towards toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergartners, have a leftist political lean?

This is not only over-reactionary, but it's plain stupid. Get off your high horse and learn to laugh at yourself; we haven't stopped laughing at you clowns since you followed Bush around as he drove the short bus conservative movement off a huge cliff.

hahaha this is great!

cute!

Talk about overly sensitive. This is hilarious! Happy birthday Sesame Street!

That was funny and cute and that blogger is a fool. Children who are watching sesame street aren't really at a level where they are interested in politics/aware of anything negative going on concerning Fox news/can recognize satire.

I'm pretty sure conservatives aren't amused by ANY form of satire...

Haha, LOVE IT. So true.

This is taken out of context. The rest of the episode has Oscar working for "GNN" Grouch News Network. The "GNN" logo is shown over and over again.

The Pox News line was a throw away line reference to another potential grouch-universe news show (where trashy = good).

So it isn't like they singled Fox out here, in fact, it is the opposite of that.

LOL! Very nice.

Valid point laserdog, but it's still funny.

seems to me that sesame street was mocking all news.

hey, doesn't that include bloggers now?

That was extremely low-yield satire, especially compared to some of the Fox News parodies I've watched on other shows. And even then, this whole skit looks like it was parodying cable news in general without having one specific target.

Stage Right's knee-jerk reaction to this is very hard to take seriously.
