#1 Late-nite talk show drivel. Unfunny and offensive to anyone with the slightest grasp of the role Canada has played in Afghanistan.

#2 Well, the Saudis (specifically al-Waleed bin Talal) own over 5% of Fox now and it's starting to show.

Yes, that was disgraceful, Canukistan Sniper.

#3 I do not own a television set. I have not watched television for the last 15 years. I can not believe, that offensive drivel about an ally, is allowed to go out on air to the world. How many of the well fed, well paid presenters in that video clip have fought for their country?

#4 Clueless, laughing hyenas the lot. I doubt any of them possess the credentials which might qualify them to critique anything related to military strategy or outcomes.

#5 i have watched this show several times and always find myself wondering how it stays on. This isn't the only time it has been offensive and really has little too do with news. Th show sucks along with the big mouth host

#6 Boycot the sponsors of the show, and let them know you're doing it. Get your friends to do the same. It works. Even Mr. Saudi's 5% won't be enough to keep the clown on-air.

#7 OP, indeed it does work. Also email them to tell them what you are doing and why.
