"According to the Fox News theory of art, an artwork’s primary purpose
isn’t to awe, inspire, or delight, let alone challenge your
understanding of the world, but to serve as an expression of partisan
allegiances; that you might also get a kick out of looking at it is more
of a perk."

[...]

"Only three kinds of art exist for Fox News: patriotic, stupid, and
obscene."

Via Kenny Chaffin.
