Fox News is cool with banning books from schools but definitely not soda
The Denver City Council is considering a proposal that would remove sugary drinks from kids meals at restaurants. Parents could still buy sodas for their children for an additional cost, but the idea is that simplifying kids menus to include only healthy options (milk and water) will remove some of the pressure parents feel when kids see the sugary options at ordering time.
The geniuses at Fox News mistakenly conflated this with “banning” sodas from schools, and they can’t believe such a thing would be allowed to happen. Lisa Kennedy Montgomery (best known as the unlikable “Kennedy” on MTV back in the day) came on to give her two cents and lean in to her stale, sarcastic schtick.
“I say we tie the children up, we put them back in their rooms, we Zoom in a room and control everything they put in their bodies, everything they see and interface with,” she declared.
Zing! You mean like which books are available to them at the library?
