Fox Hides News of Supreme Court Ruling

As we know, the United States Supreme Court ruled today that, “corporations may spend freely to support or oppose candidates for president and Congress, easing decades-old limits on their participation in federal campaigns.”
It’s a pretty damn big deal. So, I thought I’d mosey on over to Faux to see how they’re covering it. Well, guess what. For all intents and purposes, they aren’t.

The home page goes on and on (as most do) and if you scroll literally half way down, you come across this teeny, tiny headline:
Poor Faux. As the leader of the Tea Party movement I don’t guess it would be such a good idea to blast a big ol’ headline across the top of its home page telling its readers that they are more screwed today than they were yesterday and that judges appointed by Republicans are the ones who screwed them.
