Jane Curtin Slams Fox News on SNL Anniversary Show

On the 40th Anniversary of NBC's Saturday Night Live, famed comedian Jane Curtin, one of the original "Not Ready for Prime-Time Players," joined Amy Poehler and Tina Fey for "Weekend Update." And she used a one-liner to completely capture what is wrong with Fox News Network.

“Times have changed since I first sat at this desk. For example, I used to be the only pretty blonde woman to read the fake news. Now there’s an entire network devoted to that. And somehow, I showed less cleavage.”

Fox News is famous for (among other things) hiring blonde women who look and dress more like porn stars than journalists.

Jane Curtin's Fox News cleavage joke deserved a better response https://t.co/JN0o1eXPNV

Hasselbeck Hustles Over to Fox

From People

The conservative voice on ABC's The View for the last decade is headed to Fox's daytime talk show Fox & Friends, replacing Gretchen Carlson, who'll be getting her own daytime Fox show in the fall.

Her last day on The View is Wednesday.

"We will miss her and wish her everything good," View co-host and executive producer Barbara Walters said in a statement.

No Elisabeth Hasselbeck blonde jokes plz. Clearly, not a natural blonde. GOP nitwit jokes remain A-OK. #UniteBlue pic.twitter.com/yPdUOmkJdk
