One of my favorite things to do here on the blog is to make fun of the "FReepers" on the arch-right wingnut weblog, FreeRepublic.com. And, boy howdy will that be easier now, with them in a serious case of soul-searching.
Apparently, the FReepers are mightily ticked off at FOX "News," for not being as propaganda-y as they used to be. Why, they're taking shots at conservative darling (and political loser) Sarah Palin! How dare they. Forget that FOX was engaging in some general newsworthy reporting. That's commendable, given their usual talking points style.
FOX-watching site NewsCorpse has compiled a list of some of the FReeper rants. Here are a few for your amusement. . .

A Boycott Of Fox News By Conservatives
• I propose that we punish the FOX Network for its hatchet job on Sarah Palin. For one week beginning at 3:00 PM today no one tunes them in. We will demonstrate the power of conservatives when their ratings plummet dramatically. Will you join me? [FYI: their boycott will have no affect whatsoever on the ratings unless a significant number of them are Nielsen families]
• I’m done with Teevee. Let them all go to hell.
• I am with you all the way my friend…i hope FOX goes off the air…hate em now…
