Ted Turner called FOX an arm of the Bush administration and compared FOXNEWS's popularity to Hitler's popular election to run Germany before WWII.
Turner made the controversial comments in Las Vegas before a standing-room-only crowd at the National Association for Television Programming Executives's opening session.
His no-nonsense, humorous approach during the one-hour Q&A generated frequent loud applause and laughter, BROADCASTING & CABLE reports.
While FOX may be the largest news network [and has overtaken Turner's CNN], it's not the best, Turner said.
He followed up by pointing out that Adolph Hitler got the most votes when he was elected to run Germany prior to WWII. He said the network is the propaganda tool for the Bush Administration.
"There's nothing wrong with that. It's certainly legal. But it does pose problems for our democracy. Particularly when the news is dumbed down," leaving voters without critical information on politics and world events and overloaded with fluff," he said.
A FOXNEWS spokesperson responded: "Ted is understandably bitter having lost his ratings, his network and now his mind -- we wish him well."
In 1996, Turner apologized to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) for comments he made comparing FOX head Rupert Murdoch to Hitler.

He doesn't need a bitch slap. A good pounding might make him look less dead.

Be careful LV. It has been well documented that Dennis likes to, well, show the Vienna Sausage while camping. Enjoy the trip.

I think Dennis was saying that Turner made the comment while in Las Vegas... in Las Vegas... get it? In Vegas, like the anal kind of in... the most unnatural kind of in. The kind of in that SUVGuy is on the receiving end of several times an hour at the reststop where he works. |

Friends --
Time has passed Turner by. Trouble is, he doesn't realize it. That's why he's so pathetic.

Until I saw the post, I forgot who Teddy was. He is so irrelevant. Who really cares what he thinks? Ted, your 15 minutes are up, sit back down!

I just saw a clip of Crazy Ted talking about this. He isn't just crazy- he's f*cking crazy as a sh*thouse rat.
He's also got a Hitler fixation that goes way back. He's made the comment in the past that "Hitler might have been right about the Jews".
FoxNews has some great footage of him looking really nutty.
