College Kid Pranks Fox News Show

[JoeJGibbs]

The politics involved in this aren't the funny part. Its the video


Summary: dude somehow landed an interview on a Fox news show which cast him as a former Obama supporter that had to move back home with parents and is now voting for Romney.

I thought this was an interesting part of the article...

Rice said that the opportunity to go on national television “kind of fell into my lap” when “a friend of a friend” got a text message asking if anyone knew a recent college graduate who can’t get a job and is voting for Mitt Romney. “I’m like, hell yeah I’m a college graduate. Eff Obama!” he said. “20 emails later with the producer at Fox, they’re telling me what to say. It’s such bull****. It’s so ridiculous.”

Rice told Raw Story that he in fact dropped out of college, but lied to Fox News about it just to see if they’d do their homework.

“The first thing that shocked me is that they were that desperate to find someone that fit that category,” he added. “What they were seeking is someone who voted for Obama in 2008, then somewhere in the last four years got disenfranchised and now is a huge Romney supporter…They were so happy that I fit the mold and that I was Caucasian,” he continued. “They were just casting a part in a show. They were so stupid. I’m a kid messing around.”

Really funny, but that kid is a total fail. He knew he was going to be on the show and couldn't figure out anything better to say?

I saw this live and couldn't sit through a minute. As much as I love seeing Fox punked, this guy was so not clever, I had to turn away from this train wreck. The worst part was how "Ms. Universe" couldn't figure out what I did from the second he opened his mouth. He was clearly punking the show. Wondering how long it will take before even conservatives start to demand better from FauxNews. Is the need to hear only what you want to hear so important that you won't demand standards better than this?

Hell, MSNBC has an actual conservative host who isn't there to get ganged up on like what they used to do to Colmes.... or whatever his name is. LOL

Oh and yes... when my morning is starting off slow, I turn to Fox cause it irritates me so much it wakes me up. LOL

The kid's simply a jackass. I didn't even find it remotely funny whatsoever. Id' be ashamed I was his parent.

Who woulda thunk?

Fox/Repubs not vetting someone before throwing them out in the limelight. lol

Why dont they just pre-record the segment when its such a random interview? Its not like its an established and experienced interviewee.

What a total d-bag. Stations like Fox News portray Generation Y as people who can't even get a sentence out when it comes to politics, and this loser totally lived up to their stereotype. If he wanted to make a statement, he would have punked them with facts and the point that they didn't do their research when doing the background check on him.

Yup, he is the stereotypical idiot college kid. Had he made himself come across as an intelligent young man, and brought up Fox's lack of fact-checking, he'd have made a better point. Instead he's just some disrespectful moron wasting people's time.
