    I saw something about that on Yahoo News, but I didn't bother to read the article.

    The broadcast was surreal, or to be candid, more surreal than the usual Fox drivel.
    If only one of the African American colleagues on FoxNews had been able to... Oh, right there isn’t one!

    Did you just claim there are no black people who work at Fox? Lol

    There were none on the program paying the tribute.

    "Oh, no!!" to that happening, regardless of wherever it occurred.
    I didn't see it.

    Gosh, I like both Franklin and LaBelle - - but for that to have happened at this time, especially. Franklin is beyond legend and beyond superstar and beyond Queen of Soul. A huge "Woops!"

    As do I. Both ladies possess(ed) extraordinary talent. But either the white guys at Fox couldn’t tell the difference or didn’t bother to.

    *It shouldn’t be forgotten the various male members of that “news” organization (including the late former boss Roger Ailes) were embroiled in sexual harrassment scandals. What’s the deal there? This post was edited by Don Barzini at September 9, 2018 5:45 PM MDT

    Why am I not surprised? I did see something about it but my lack of interest in Fox News prevented me from reading it.

    sad but true...
    Isn't Fox the one
    that broadcasts fake news?
    or is that someone else?

    That is the one which claims, along with it’s supporters, that everything else is Fake News.

    I believe that is spelled 'Faux News'.
