The Daily Rip is definitely a parody on a frivolous liberal network like CNN


Parallels to Maddow, Don Lemon or some other junk is obvious.

Blanchett was doing a Mika Brzezinski spoof.

True, MSNBC is worse

I feel like it was more of a Today Show/morning show parody. The CNN shows usually focus on politics and The Rip seems like feel good morning show crap.

You "P"s just can't take it, it was clearly a Fox and Friends parody. You guys are such "P"s that you are in danger of Trump grabbing you ... but you'd like it too much.

reply

Why you so obsessed with Fox? You seriously think that MSNBC and CNN are real news after their proven lies over the past few years?

reply

I'd say MSNBC and CNN are commercial propaganda, while FOX is weaponized, extremist, reactionary revolutionary propaganda - much different, much more toxic.

reply

It will take decades for CNN and MSNBC to catch up with Fox in terms of being fucked up fake news.

reply

me thinks it was a parody of Fox.

I think you are missing the point of the word parody

reply

Lol, I actually think you don't seem to understand how parodies work.

reply

LOl. Lefties just cant accept that fact that it was very cruel parody on brainless world of left wing clowns. They had Ariana Granda playing herself! )))

Show's creators say you are wrong.

One of the main criticisms of this movie is that the parodies have been too obvious, too heavy-handed. Apparently not, if it goes right over the heads of poor saps like you.

Republicans are in denial. They can't deal.

the Patriot Network at end was the rumored Trump Network

reply

I can see that. Reminded me of Newsmax or RSBN.

reply

i've only seen clips of those Networks online, and they already seemed like a parody of real news

reply

It was very obvious parody on those left wing morning shows. Including obsessions with stupid celebrities and their idiotic life dramas.

reply

Wow, you certainly have a keen eye.

Are you on Twitter? I need to keep up with your observations, and hot takes.
