Jimmy Kimmel has a scathing message for Fox News on its 30th birthday

It’s Fox News 30th birthday this week, and Jimmy Kimmel has a special message for the network he frequently finds himself going up against.

“Fox News turned 30 years old today, and what do you get for the network that ruined everything? Fox News launched on October 7th, 1996 as sort of a BET for angry white grandpas,” says Kimmel in the clip above. “Three decades ago, a visionary named Rupert Murdoch asked a simple question. He asked, ‘What if the news was whatever I want it to be?’ And with nothing more than millions of dollars and a complete disregard for the America in which he wasn’t born, he turned that idea into what has become the number one reason you can’t talk to your dad anymore.”

Cue a montage of Fox News clips that are as depressing and ridiculous as you’d expect.
