Review of fox news blog::Who Owns Fox News - What's Your Question?








It's               been               a               busy               half               year               when               it               comes               to               the               news,               but               there               have               been               a               few               hot               topics               that               have               overtaken               the               headlines               during               the               first               months               of               2009.

From               evil               octomoms               to               marijuana               mayhem,               this               is               a               look               at               5               of               the               hottest               newsmakers               of               2009               so               far:               Mothers               of               Multiples               -               It               all               started               with               the               Octomom.

Nadya               Suleman               and               her               gigantic               brood               of               children               made               her               one               of               the               most               hated               women               in               America.

No               one               could               understand               how               a               woman               with               no               job               or               a               husband               with               one               could               decide               that               having               eight               children               was               the               next               logical               step               in               her               life               (especially               since               she               already               had               6               at               home!).

There               were               allegations               that               Nadya               Suleman               was               obsessed               with               Angelina               Jolie               and               had               undergone               plastic               surgery               to               look               like               her               and               wanted               a               big               brood               just               like               her.

The               doctors               who               allowed               the               Octomom               to               undergo               fertility               treatments               also               came               under               fire,               and               we               all               wondered               where               a               single               mom               already               taking               care               of               six               kids               got               the               money               for               the               fertility               treatments               and               the               surgery.

After               months               of               bickering               over               whether               the               Octomom               should               be               allowed               to               have               her               own               reality               show               like               'Jon               &               Kate               Plus               8',               she               finally               got               her               way.

But               by               that               time,               our               attention               had               shifted               to               another               mother               of               multiples,               Kate               Gosselin               of               'Jon               &               Kate               Plus               8'.

She               ruled               her               roost               with               an               iron               fist,               complaining               about               coupons               that               the               family               didn't               even               need,               harping               on               Jon               over               every               little               thing               (even               breathing!),               and               rolling               her               eyes               like               an               annoyed               teenager               when               her               kids               would               try               to               talk               to               her               while               she               was               talking               to               the               cameras.

But               fans               of               the               show               'Jon               &               Kate               Plus               8'               had               known               this               about               Kate               Gosselin               for               quite               some               time.

What               got               the               attention               of               the               rest               of               America               were               a               few               pictures               of               her               husband               Jon               Gosselin               out               partying               with               a               twenty-something               schoolteacher.

It               didn't               take               long               for               more               headlines               of               the               couple's               failing               marriage               to               start               flooding               grocery               store               checkout               lanes:               did               they               have               an               open               marriage               contract?

Was               Kate               Gosselin               dating               her               bodyguard?

Did               Jon               Gosselin               go               out               and               party               with               friends               on               Kate               Gosselin's               birthday?

Should               these               two               and               their               eight               kids               even               be               on               a               show?

Were               the               stories               about               affairs               just               a               big               hoax               to               boost               ratings?

Is               Kate               Gosselin's               haircut               really               cute?

The               two               recently               finally               did               get               a               divorce,               ending               the               speculation.

Still,               the               show               might               go               on               and               the               debate               over               whether               the               kids               should               be               subjected               to               it               won't               end,               and               we're               waiting               to               see               if               TLC               comes               up               with               a               replacement               for               the               large               family               if               the               show               does               end.
               The               Fight               for               Gay               Rights               -               Prop               8               was               big               news               at               the               beginning               of               the               year,               as               was               the               fight               to               repeal               it.

It's               frankly               amazing               to               me               that               gay               couples               who               live               in               one               of               the               places               in               America               that's               viewed               as               the               most               liberal               still               can't               get               married,               but               I               believe               they               will               be               able               to               in               due               time.

The               debate               over               gay               marriage               sparked               one               of               the               most               interesting               feuds               of               the               year               so               far               between               former               Miss               California               Carrie               Prejean               and               celebrity               blogger               Perez               Hilton.

During               the               Miss               USA               pageant,               Carrie               Prejean               was               asked               whether               or               not               she               thought               that               gay               couples               should               be               allowed               to               get               married.

She               completely               flubbed               her               answer               up,               saying               she               believed               in               "opposite               marriage".

Perez               Hilton               later               had               some               choice               words               for               Carrie               Prejean               on               his               blog,               and               Carrie               Prejean               responded               with               a               tryst               with               right-wing               media               outlets               like               FOX               News.

She               argued               that               she               lost               the               title               of               Miss               USA               because               she               stood               up               for               what               she               believed               in               (although               I               still               say               she               just               stumbled               all               over               her               answer)               and               tried               to               become               a               martyr               for               the               anti-gay               marriage               cause.

Then               one               set               of               topless               pictures               of               Carrie               Prejean               hit               the               internet,               which               she               argued               away               as               modeling               pictures               that               weren't               abnormal               for               a               girl               in               her               position               (they               really               weren't               anything               worse               than               what               you'd               see               in               a               men's               magazine;               she               was               topless,               but               covering               herself               up               with               her               arms).

But               then               another               set               hit               the               net,               and               these               really               were               topless               pictures.

Still,               Donald               Trump               let               her               keep               her               Miss               California               crown,               and               co-director               of               the               Miss               California               USA               pageant               and               former               Miss               USA               Shanna               Moakler               stepped               down               from               her               position               after               learning               that               Carrie               Prejean               was               going               to               be               allowed               to               keep               her               title.

Eventually               Carrie               Prejean               lost               her               title               because               she               wasn't               fulfilling               her               contractual               obligations,               although               she               stated               that               she               believed               it               was               because               she               wouldn't               pose               for               more               topless               pictures               in               'Playboy'               or               appear               on               'I'm               A               Celebrity,               Get               Me               Out               of               Here!'.

Another               former               beauty               queen               in               the               spotlight               who               had               expressed               her               support               for               Carrie               Prejean,               Sarah               Palin,               had               to               have               shed               a               tear               as               someone               so               similar               to               herself               faded               away               from               the               media               spotlight,               her               last               hurrah               being               a               few               E-mails               between               herself               and               a               Miss               USA               employee               that               revealed               her               true               character.

So               it               was               score               1               for               gay               marriage,               a               point               that               was               quickly               taken               away               as               prop               8               wasn't               repealed.

However,               science               might               save               the               gay               marriage               argument:               studies               are               revealing               that               gay               and               bisexual               behavior               is               a               natural               occurrence               in               almost               every               species               on               the               planet               (remember               the               adorable               gay               penguin               couple?).

So               evolution               isn't               the               only               thing               the               religious               right               is               going               to               have               to               find               a               Bible-friendly               explanation               for               now.

But               the               gay               community               could               be               tearing               itself               apart               over               a               film               by               Sacha               Baron               Cohen.

'Bruno'               is               a               movie               done               in               Sacha               Baron               Cohen's               distinctive               style               of               making               people               look               like               idiots               by               exposing               their               prejudice               and               hypocrisy               by               pretending               to               be               a               stereotype.

But               while               the               purpose               of               'Bruno'               seems               to               be               to               expose               the               ugly               side               of               homophobia               in               a               funny               way,               many               members               of               the               gay               community               are               arguing               that               the               movie               just               gives               homophobes               something               to               laugh               about               and               that               they'll               completely               miss               the               message.

Sadly,               those               who               will               be               laughing               at               Bruno               and               not               with               him               probably               would               not               change               their               minds,               anyway,               so               it's               best               just               to               enjoy               the               movie               and               move               on               by               fighting               for               gay               rights               where               it               counts:               in               the               political               world.
               Celebrity               Deaths               -               I               don't               want               to               focus               on               this               subject               too               long,               because               it's               depressed               me               enough               this               year,               but               there               have               been               way               too               many               celebrity               deaths               in               these               first               few               months               of               2009.

Natasha               Richardson's               unexpected               death               early               in               the               year               definitely               educated               us               all               on               head               injures;               she               fell               and               hit               her               head               while               skiing,               seemed               perfectly               fine,               and               died               hours               later.

Legendary               radio               voice               and               storyteller               Paul               Harvey               died               in               February,               and               Golden               Girl               Bea               Arthur,               also               known               for               her               ground-breaking               work               on               the               show               'Maude',               died               in               April.

British               reality               star               Jade               Goody               wasn't               one               of               the               biggest               stars               to               die               during               2009,               but               hers               was               one               of               the               most-talked               about               celebrity               deaths,               as               she               allowed               her               struggle               with               cervical               cancer               to               be               documented               to               the               very               end.

Other               celebrity               deaths               include               that               of               funnyman               Dom               DeLuise               and               porn               star               Marilyn               Chambers.

'Kung               Fu'               Actor               David               Carradine's               untimely               end               became               one               of               the               most               talked               about               celebrity               deaths               of               2009               because               of               the               bizarre               circumstances               surrounding               it,               leading               some               to               believe               that               he               died               attempting               autoerotic               asphyxiation.

But               perhaps               the               celebrity               deaths               that               have               gotten               the               most               attention               this               year               are               the               slew               of               them               that               happened               in               June,               including               that               of               Johnny               Carson's               right               hand               man               Ed               McMahon               and               the               blonde               angel               known               as               Farrah               Fawcett,               who               died               the               same               day               as               the               King               of               Pop,               Michael               Jackson.

But               while               the               news               stories               were               pouring               in               about               how               MJ               died,               whether               drugs               and               his               doctor               were               to               blame,               and               what               would               happen               to               his               kids,               another               legend               in               his               own               right,               infomercial               king               Billy               Mays,               died               shortly               after               giving               an               interview               about               bumping               his               head.

This               led               to               speculation               that               he               had               died               the               same               way               as               Natasha               Richardson,               but               it               was               later               discovered               his               death               was               from               a               heart               condition.

Of               course               these               are               just               a               few               of               the               dozens               of               celebrity               deaths               that               have               occurred               so               far               in               2009,               and               lets               hope               the               second               half               of               the               year               isn't               so               dark.
               The               Struggle               of               the               GOP               -               The               Republican               Party               has               had               it's               fair               share               of               blows               so               far               this               year.

Despite               no               George               Bush               to               bash,               the               GOP               has               had               it's               hands               full               with               jokes               about               the               likes               of               Rush               Limbaugh               being               the               voice               of               the               right               and               the               star               that               is               Sarah               Palin               not               fading               away.

In               fact,               Sarah               Palin               seems               to               be               making               the               headlines               quite               frequently,               probably               striking               fear               in               the               hearts               of               those               in               her               party               who               see               her               as               presidential               poison.

(Don't               worry,               even               Rush               Limbaugh               realizes               how               dangerous               Sarah               Palin               is,               and               he               won't               let               her               end               up               being               the               Republican               candidate).

But               Sarah               Palin               is               still               sitting               somewhat               pretty,               as               the               GOP               has               likely               lost               two               of               it's               possible               candidates               due               to               affairs.

John               Ensign               fell               after               possibly               being               blackmailed               by               the               husband               of               the               staffer               he               had               an               affair               with,               and               not               too               long               after,               South               Carolina               Governor               Mark               Sanford               made               even               more               headlines               when               he               went               missing.

No               one               seemed               to               know               where               he               was,               but               it               was               only               a               matter               of               time               before               he               admitted               that               he               was               seeing               his               mistress               in               South               America.

The               media               soon               identified               her               as               Maria               Belen               Chapu,               prompting               a               frantic               search               for               pictures               of               the               former               newscaster.

It               seems               that               Mark               Sanford               was               truly               head-over-heels               for               this               woman,               judging               from               the               E-mails               released               (love               letters               from               him               to               her),               but               he's               decided               to               try               and               keep               his               wife               and               his               job.

Even               if               he               doesn't               step               down               as               governor,               don't               expect               a               presidential               bid               from               him;               like               Ensign,               he               voted               to               impeach               Bill               Clinton               when               he               went               astray.

Being               lovelorn               and               called               a               hypocrite               would               probably               just               be               a               little               too               much               for               him               to               handle               during               a               debate.

And               one               more               blow               to               the               GOP:               Al               Franken               was               finally               declared               Minnesota's               Senator,               giving               the               Democrats               a               filibuster-proof               majority.
               Pot               Pushing               -               From               the               time               that               one               of               the               most               popular               questions               from               an               internet               poll               was               posed               to               President               Obama               about               legalizing               marijuana,               it               looked               like               it               was               going               to               be               a               hot               topic               this               year.

There's               always               a               marijuana               story               that's               popular               on               the               website               Digg,               and               many               are               arguing               that               legalizing               marijuana               and               taxing               it               could               save               our               economy               and               put               an               end               to               the               drug               being               smuggled               across               the               Mexican               border.

News               stations               like               CNN               have               done               specials               on               the               matter,               weighing               the               pros               and               cons               of               legalizing               marijuana,               but               it               could               be               a               long               time               before               it's               ever               legalized.

Still,               as               cigarettes               are               becoming               less               and               less               popular,               tobacco               companies               are               going               to               have               to               find               someway               to               make               money,               and               switching               over               to               marijuana               might               be               the               way               to               go.
               So               from               bad               mothers               times               eight               to               great               drug               and               marriage               debates,               there               have               been               some               interesting               newsmakers               of               2009               so               far.

I               can't               wait               to               see               what               the               rest               of               this               crazy               year               has               to               offer.
