The Fox Blocker

It sounds like a product made to be sold on Air America.

Sam Kimery of Tulsa, Oklahoma, has invented a device that he calls a Fox Blocker.

It's a metal object that's screwed into the back of a TV set and blocks out the Fox News Channel.

Kimery claims to be a former Republican but sounds more like another former G.O.P. guy: David Brock. He contends that Fox News' top-level management dictates a conservative journalistic bias.

When describing the Fox News Channel, Kimery told the Associated Press: "I might as well be reading tabloids out of the grocery store. Anything to get a rise out of the viewer and to reinforce certain retrograde notions."

CNN execs would love it if Kimery's invention sold well. Fox has averaged twice the viewers in prime time that CNN has brought in, according to Nielsen Media Research.

The Left Coast Report has a device that appropriately handles the nightly news broadcasts of ABC, NBC and CBS. It's called "Brick on a Rope."
