Fox News gets another kick in the pants from The Simpsons. Via Mediaite:
"The premise of the episode is that Homer has become a viral internet video sensation after Bart uploads footage of him having an Alec Baldwin-esque airplane meltdown.

His YouTube stardom earns him a spot as a commentator on cable news show HeadButt, with commentary from Adriatica Veljohnson (a not-too-subtle jab at Arianna Huffington). Homer goes off script, and claims to speak for “those real people out there who buy their coffee from the mini-mart and grab enough sugar packs for a week. Honest, hardworking, sugar-stealing Americans!”
Cable news executives are so endeared by Homer’s folksiness — saying he is the “ill-informed gas bag that networks cannot get enough of” — that they decide to give him his own show, Gut Check!"
The video cannot be embedded, unfortunately.

Things You Can't Make Up
Jan 5th, 2011
The Murdoch Device Business Channel's resident tool, Stuart Varney, continued the network's war-on-unions by suggesting that private entrepreneurs would have done a better job during New York City's recent snow catastrophe. He used Homer Simpson as an exemplar from the classic "Mr. Plow" episode. I am not making this up.
