Fucked Up being celebrated on Fox News? Does not compute.

It might be time to cut back on the brews. Fox News is reporting that old beer fridges, which one in three Canadians keep in their houses, are remarkably inefficient and "contribute significantly" to global warming.

Canadian music fans might have heard of Sherrie Lea Laird. She covered Sade's "No Ordinary Love." She has a band, Pandemonia, and they just released a classic rock CD called Left to Die...In the Wide Open.

We start today's blog roundup with more line eavesdropping. This time it's a couple complaining about their single tickets and the definition of "best seat available." The gist of the complaint:

An extremely slap-dash look around the blogiverse has yielded the following links (excuse the tardiness of some):

It's official: Toronto and NBC have broken up. NBC was caught cheating on us with a newly de-taxed New York City. And there are some bigtime issues there; Americans have this destructive love/hate thing with outsourcing, and we don't even want to deal with it. So fine then, leave. Um, like we even care? We are Hollywood of the North! We don't need NBC or Conan O'Brien or The Donald. Soon we'll have a much younger Fox News by our side anyway. Good luck on all your future endeavours NBC, we're sure you will succeed at whatever you do. Just don't forget that Eric McCormack is a Torontonian.

Yesterday, our PM with the same initials admits he needs to focus more on specific issues for the upcoming year. In contrast, Ontario Health Minister George Smitherman admits nothing.

We have All Maple to thank for pointing us to this media matters medley of Canadian stereotyping. And if you don't already hate Tucker Carlson, Fox News, and the barely human Ann Coulter, well, this will alter that. Prejudice, while intolerable in and of itself, is nothing when compared to what Wolf Blitzer deems 'tongue-in-cheek' idiocy. Perhaps Torontoist needs to send a dog-sledding delegation down to Crossfire's studio. Please let us know if you want to come along.

More alarmingly, especially given the awful punditry that spewed forth on election night, is Canada.com's report that the Canadian Radio, Television and Telecommunications Commission said it found ''there is substantial demand in Canada for Fox News." Like a hole in the head. Apologies, Mr. Murdoch. Of course, and in fairness, freedom to broadcast on one of Canada's hundreds of digital channels should be afforded the network. We just fear what Shep-spawn the network will bring upon us. Fair and Balanced, Torontoist's coverage shall endeavour to remain.
