ATLANTA, Georgia --- Ted Turner, whose belief in socialism and strong governmental control over the lives of citizens closely mirrors the beliefs of Adolf Hitler, compared Fox News's popularity to Hitler in a speech today.
Americans who still believe in the values of the Founding Fathers, including individual liberty and a small central government, speculate that Turner is beginning to spread propaganda in order to mask his true intention of taking over the country and installing his own fascist regime.
"This is an interesting strategy," said a leader at the CATO Institute, a libertarian think-tank. "If Turner can convince the public that people who believe in personal freedom and less government are really like Hitler, then his strategy of socialism and government regulation of ever portion of our lives under his personal direction will seem like the exact opposite of what Hitler really is all about. Unfortunately for him, Americans aren't that dumb. Well, at least red state Americans aren't."
After making his statements, Turner's Communist News Network (CNN) lost another two million viewers to Fox News. The remaining 37 viewers live in San Francisco and Canada.
