Fox News Christmas Card: Image Displays Network Leading Rivals (PHOTO)

First Posted: 12/21/11 05:50 PM ET Updated: 12/21/11 06:15 PM ET

Fox News sent out quite the Christmas card this year, complete with a poem gloating the network's ratings success.

On the front of the card, a cartoon fox is leading a race of sheep-drawn sleighs with broadcast networks NBC, ABC and CBS trailing behind. NBC and ABC appear neck and neck, while CBS is behind in fourth place.

In the top corner of the card, two cartoon characters representing MSNBC and CNN sit on a hill watching and not participating in the race.

The poem on the back of the card is reportedly set to the holiday tune Joy to the World. The poem highlights Fox News' high ratings and names the network the "one to beat."

hate sells! proof that rw/con talk hosts gather highest ratings. if the mythical figure known as the devil really existed, then he would be ratings leader.

Idiots watch FOX "News" and only FOX. All others divide their news viewing among the other networks. Until FOX captures more viewers than all the others combined, there is still hope.

Pride is a trait that plays a large part in the morality described by Christian mythology. In the Christian tradition, this would make Fox most similar to the figure Christians call "Satan."

Since when do sheep pull dog sleds? Isn't this a huge insult to their viewers?

1st question - interesting but w/99.999 probability of never - same percent that image message is subliminal.
2nd question - hypothetical, unrealistic and rhetorical based false premise - Fox Entertainment Channel viewers can be insulted. Est probability as sheep pulling dogsled

Apparently no one at Fox took SP's advice on what a Christmas Card should look like.

Why sheep?
Unless they are saying their their viewers, who in fact do pull Fox ratings ahead, are ovine, enslaved to their greatest enemy, the Fox.

And that the viewers of ABC and NBC are also ovine in mentality.

CNN and MSNBC have no sheep to pull their sleds.
