Weak? No! Empty. Fox has experts for writing apologies that sound good but say nothing.

From COC with likely Fox comments:

“Your network must find a solution to address racial stereotyping and hate-mongering before it hits the airwaves.”

Um, why?

“What new changes will Fox News make to ensure the integrity of its coverage?”

We will push the envelope further. Um, integrity? That’s not part of our business model.

“Throughout this election campaign, and beyond, I intend to …”

Ooh, we’re scared.

Much like their Jena 6 activism, COC accomplishments with this petition will be just as empty as Fox’s apologies.

Loss of Revenue...That's the only thing these idiots will understand. The right has these companies running scared because they are so organized and vocal. <br/><br/>Michelle Malkin can merely object to a scarf, Dunkin Donuts gets rattled and pulls the ad. I just dont see the same fear or respect for the left. List all of O'reilly's and Hannity advertisers--write them and start a boycott Drive.
