I am confused by President Obama’s boycott of Fox News. Wasn’t he the candidate that was going to reach across the aisle to bring diverse people with differing viewpoints together to find consensus and make change? While it is true that Fox’s editorial programming is right-slanted, it is also true that CNN and the broadcast news outlets (and their cable offshoots) are left-leaning. We all know that, and so what? Isn’t the United States one country that encourages diversity of people, opinions, and freedom of speech? Don’t all of us get one president? More on page 48

Much has been made of the ‘Cash For Clunkers’ program that President Obama has been advocating. The way I see it the government wants to give my tax money away to people who can afford to buy cars. The excuse is that it will boost the economy, but experts have expressed doubt on whether it will actually stimulate the economy or simply steal sales from the future.
I prefer Conan O’Brien’s program . The Tonight Show host is running a contest in which viewers write in or send videos arguing why their car should be blown to smithereens. The winner will get to drive his or her car to Los Angeles to have it blown up on the air, and will also receive a brand new 2010 Lexus HS250h hybrid. More on page 46
