Fox viewers don’t belong in box

Fri., Jan. 30, 2015

Letters from Nancy Runyan always make interesting reading. In the Jan. 20 Spokesman-Review, her letter regarding a recent dispute between the Dish network and Fox News provided new food for thought.

For example: I did not realize that people over 65 act in concert to identify conspiracies, much less act together in one while having a cow. Then, when they reach the age of 70, after clearing their lawns, they go berserk and engage in furious letter-writing and phone-calling. America should be alerted to this.

How convenient it must be to have a box to put everyone in and to settle all issues. Once you have things all properly identified and placed, what is left to be done? My grandpa told me long ago that when you see someone coming toward you that has all the answers to everything, run as fast as you can in the opposite direction.
