They've Already Taught Her How To Pronounce "Benghazi"



A star from the movie “Clueless” is now a Fox News anchor.  Make up your own jokes, everybody.  This one’s too easy


If people are making their own jokes, why should they come back to the Blag?  


I guess that's a valid point.  I should actually write a joke or something here, right?  


Well, considering your jokes are terrible, with the obvious exception of The Skeleton Joke, estimates vary.


So, we all know the movie "Clueless."  It starred Alicia Silverstone, was based on a Jane Austen novel (always the sign of quality), and spawned a sitcom that lasted all of three seasons.  It was about three seasons too many.  

Anyway, another of the stars of the movie was Stacey Dash.  Stacey has since become something of a conservative gasbag, loosely supported various racist causes, and hyperbolically spoken out against the Obama administration.  Once you have these levels of credentials, there's only one place to go...right-wing cable news channels!  

Enter Fox News.  

The bastion for racist, hyperbolic, conservative gasbags has hired Ms. Dash to be a "News" anchor to allow her to provide "cultural analysis and commentary across various daytime and primetime programs."  This means that the network that brought you an anchor asking why we should care what celebrities think about topics, immediately followed by a guest appearance by Hank Williams Jr, is going to ask another lukewarm celebrity her stance on the issues of the day.  This ought to bring a whole new level of credibility to the broadcast, and I, for once, am looking forward to it!
