Android weathermen

Sep 28

Human-obsoleting technology continues to penetrate into even the most esoteric careers.

Fox News doesn't even need to wait around for the digital weatherman to be perfected — they can improve their operations and achieve efficiencies using existing and well understood technology. They could just put a melon on a pole, staple a blazer to the pole, put lipstick on the melon, and play a loop tape that just says "WHY DO THEY HATE AMERICA?" over and over again — cheaper and more reliably on-message than Bill O'Reilly.

Sorry, Bill, invisible hand of the market. Not fair, you say? Tell it to Leon Trotsky, I've got melons on set in five.
