I cannot believe all of you babies who are crying and whining about the possibility that Fox News would acquire Revision3. You are like a bunch of 5 year olds. Grow up already. I’m guessing that you’re all from San Fransisco.

And BTW, the first indication that this as a joke was the fact that they said Fox News and not News Corp (or Fox Interactive Media). Fox News would not acquire anybody.

Why hate, just because Kevin is better than you - although other shows like the GigaOm are just plain crap and i go sleep and hit the big red button.

I’ll admit they had me fooled for a second, but I semi doubted it was true. The next rumor should be that they sell Best Buy.

Hey dillwad. Fox News is 90% editorial. It just so happens you don’t like their editorials. Get over it.

The level of stupidity in the comments worries me about the readers of TechCrunch. I thought we might be slightly smarter than the typical digg crowd with their highly original “Faux News” and calls of “Neocon Propaganda”. They can’t seem to wrap their heads around why CNN and MSNBC lose out to viewership count every night to Fox News.

Had never heard of Revision3 networks…checked it out..not bad. A niche net network(lets call it a NNN play). You have to ask yourself, can this type of offering be successful? Because it’s a NNN play it doesnt really appeal 2 the masses..if it doesnt appeal 2 the masses how can it generate any revenue?

Kevin Rose makes an April Fools joke and this is top news? I’m confused, is the news part that
Rev3 may have been sold or that Kevin Rose is a human with a sense of humor?

I liked the jawbone ad at the end of that episode. I dont really need a headset, but Id probably get one after seeing that ad if I wanted one

Wow there is a lot of hate towards Kevin on this one. This was a pretty decent but obvious april fools joke. I think they did it early because if it was the day of then who would have believed it for a second.

Y’all got me! I thought it was for real… Even after they said april fool I was a little bit skeptical…. Yes I know Fox news was odd, but hey … if the money is there they can follow. And I was just about to stop watching diggnation because I know it was going to be Fox’s style.

But hey, Good one!

yeh MIKE , lets see you write about minority startups every once in a while. Don’t go telling me that there arent any Black, Asian or non white netrepreneurs

Damn you TechCrunch. I watched the first 2 minutes of this and my heart sank.
