OK, so here's a copy of email I just sent to Fox
(It felt good writing it!
). And also, how it backfired.
Quote:
As a Canadian, I have to tell you I am utterly disgusted by the March 17th episode of Red Eye. Canadian troops are dying in Afghanistan alongside Americans, and you choose to diss the Canadian military with very poorly done satire? "I didn't even know they were in the war" is an outrageous statement that goes far beyond being funny. The satire was downright offensive.
Considering that Canada is the United States' greatest ally, both politically and economically, Fox better smarten up before airing such garbage.

How did I screw it up? Well, I forgot that last comma! "Your number one trading partner, idiots" became "Your number one trading partner idiots"! Oops! I guess I should proofread more carefully!
