  • I think this is a music preference and fox makes the democrats look like they're incredibly anti american it's partisan propaganda to turn the music preference of one democrat to all democrats are un-patriotic

  • Middle of the road elevator/department store muzak is NOT jazz music!! It's mass produced specifically for its mundane ends. Also, what a non-story. Really, who gives a fuck?

  • They should play Nazi marching songs!

  • OMG, who the hell cares?!

  • So we need to be constantly listening to patriotic marches to be patriotic? Is this fucking North Korea? Soviet Russia?

  • jawohl eh? :p

  • I'd prob rather listen to the patriotic music to be honest... smooth Jazz just reminds me of porno and I'd get distracted and hung up

  • I don't even like Jazz and it sounded better than the Patroitic music.

  • its just music. #moveon.org

  • George Foreman is house nigga of the century. 

  • scary

  • Getting celebs to agree with weird shit like this is very creepy.

  • America Wins!

    

  • This is hilarious. Why is this even in the 'News'? XD WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?!?!? XD People really care. OH! And of course they bring in George Foreman.

  • I demand that they play patriotic music over loudspeakers in the street! What's wrong with some rousing patriotic songs while you're waiting for the bus! Come on! What are we waiting for? Or are you secretly listening to your own music? Don't make me sick.

  • no!!! not big George! as if they manipulated him like that... ):

  • if patriotic music annoys you then where is your allegiance. Do you not support this country? What values do you have?

  • @ronaldconaway What does liking a certain type of music say about where someone's "allegiance" lies? If your allegiance revolves around a song or a genre of music, what values do YOU have?

  • Jazz is American music. These guys are aware of that, right? How is a genre developed completely in the United States not patriotic?

  • look, they think patriotic music is a second flag. what morons, that music is played in almost all places of american ceremony, let some other stuff of MODERN times have a chance in one area for goodness sake. jazz music is american for god sakes

  • The issue....is that FOX makes stuff up. Let's talk about paid spokesmen. Do we believe someone who's paid to promote a product? How much did Foreman get for his appearance? FOX has gone to insane lengths to get Afr-Americans on their programs. They are villifying Pelosi and Democrats. Google FASCISM....

  • there is brazilian jazz, thats been out for a long time. cant say which happened first

  • Fox News: Making Shit Up Since We Suck A Journalism.

  • Jazz is american music.....wtf man

  • @Deedovich Good Ol' Faux News

  • The smooth jazz sounded far better to me than that bloated 'patriotic' marching stuff.

  • In what way is preparing yourself for smashing another guys face in akin to calling your local representative for a civilised debate about policy decisions. Unless you have the ability to forget where you actually live without a flag plastered to your face and the national anthem belting out in the background why does it even matter. Also jazz is as american as music gets. If it bothers a person that much just stick the liberty song on yourself and recite the constitution before you ring them.

  • -__________- Louis Armstrong would be sad! I'm sure fox news would be the people who would support the ads that sad jazz music is satanic and from black people who smoke cannabis. Also its the satanic jazz that causes the white women to be attracted to the black men =___= Why people think FOX NEWS is NOT racist shocks me!

  • I can't stand this Liberal Arab fuck.

  • Jazz is 100% more American than "God Save the Queen".

  • 2012 osamas little minions will nuke america.

  • George Foreman has always been an uncle tom, so, duh?

  • You americans really have serious problems.

    Btw, is it possible that George Foreman took on blow to the many to head?

  • Their are bigger FUCKING ISSUES and they waste air time, electricity, our lives on this shit !!! Wow!!! Mabey 2012 really is gonna fucking happen !!!

  • Only in America??? That's bullshit, people who live in parliamentary democracies confront their elected leaders all the time. Ever seen the British PM debates where the people in their audiences yell their questions at the candidates?

  • Jazz is American

  • Jawohl !!!

  • LOL more fox news craziness...probably one of the dumbest things I HAVE EVER SEEN on a supposed "news" program...more of the right wing brain washing i suppose

  • Faux News, keeping it real on all the important issues of the day.

  • Comment removed

  • Fox doesn't like black music. :P

  • @HWGuyEG Neither does George Foreman.

  • @trippinlikegod

    He's in marketing, retarded comments are his source of income.

  • @HWGuyEG nor does the dumbass, ignorant ass, oreo cookie bitch they invited on the show to speak against his own ppls music. The bitch act like Willie Nelson is continuously on play in his ipod. 

  • @HWGuyEG You bettear nawt haew daat JAAAAZZ Pwayinh

  • as a musician studying jazz, this is disgusting...

  • The Young Rag Heads! You wannabe news crew. Get real jobs.

  • Good on them, patriotic music annoys the fuck of me anyhow, it's too bad that they changed it back.

  • Your "patriotic" music is from Europe. Jazz is authentic american, found by some of your population who were kidnapped from Africa to do your dirty work in times past. University students in countries far away have "History of Jazz" courses where they learn about your country's music, and yet FOX MORONS have no clue. Sometimes I m disgusted to share the same genetic code with those slimes.

  • One small no-no for FOX, One big giant facepalm for America!!

    ..

    Patriotism can go TOO far, man.  Id prefere the Jazz..

  • i love jazz... i just hate it when stupid people use the word gay as though it's some kind of insult. i certainly hope hempartist420 is NOT a part of the TYT nation, but just another troll that will become a deserving nominee of a darwin award.

  • @hempartist420

    yeah, what if i am gay you stupid fucking piece of shit

  • woww. . we are all doomed.

  • foreman, you ass-kissing world champion

  • smooth jazz sucks anyway

  • To be fair, it's not jazz, it's SMOOTH JAZZ. I would much rather hear "patriotic music" or anything really other than smooth jazz when I'm on hold to call my congressman. Not that I ever call my congressman. But if I did... patriotic music please! Or some death metal-ska mix would be nice.

  • God, how idiot are they?

    "When you are preparing for a big fight" - You don't want someone trying to K.O a congressman by the phone, you want him to explain his problem.

    "Only in america you could do something like that" - calling a senator or a congress man? ... Right, at the exception of...the commonwealth, the European union, Japan...

    "You'll will hear that music, will get you pump up" - no, I want to laugh&think about Bug bunny&that jazz I Laugh&think they stole music from the porn industry.

  • I can never hear that patriotic music they played for George Foreman without thinking of the Fallout 3 enclave eyebots

  • @BunsterByne We're gonna be playing Fallout in real life if we don't get fix this country soon.

  • .... Jazz IS American!! Did these people attend elementary school? Or being out too long made them stupid?

  • No wonder the world hates the US. A worrying amount of the people actually listens to what FOX says. Rofl, hilarious. Fox ain't news. Fox are some KKK-douchebags who got too much authority. + Enough about liberals, your sickening country have done too much bad out in the world, THINKING you do good. Oh please attack me now Americans - I know your chubby fingers can't wait to retaliate. C'mon...C'mon : ) umad?

  • republicans take away choice? this guy is a moron. liberals are the ones wanting to take away some shit. forget call waiting music, they wanna take away our rights to so much more. wake the fuck up. we've already seen how everybody feels in the midterm elections, wait until the real shit goes down. until then, keep sarcastically speaking out of your ass...

  • Refering People at Fox News to nazis.....Okay shut the fuck up...this has gone to far.

  • In the UK you can call your MP and the music will most likely by Mozart or Beethoven, nobody cares...

  • George Forman is an authority on....what exactly?

  • does it really matter no one cares wat the fukin elivator music is it all sucks

  • choice?

    so who decides that Jazz music is a better option?

    why not other music? Its not 'choice' when they only select one other genre of music. If it was truly choice, then they should have a list of genres for people to decide to listen to.

    wow...your on tv and automatically you think you are an expert on this issue.

  • "It's a privilege to be able to call, anyway, your Congressman, your Senators... you better remember it's only in America you can do something like that."

    Yeah, America is the only country in the entire world where you can phone your representatives in government. Well... America, and every other country in the western world, and a good deal of the ones in the non-western world too. No wonder we're such a global laughing stock. Do you know how many Americans actually believe that kind of crap?

  • IDIOTS!!! Honestly! Jazz is as American as any military anthem!

  • Uncle Tom ass nigga

  • Some others have commented to this end: shouldn't we be mad at our leaders not for the choice of music but for wasting time picking what the music should be when we are fighting 2 wars and in a financial crisis. Also, I believe the Nazis would have preferred "traditional patriotic music" to jazz as well.

  • Foreman got punched in the head too often. Good for him though, still getting work now that his grill's done selling.

  • Who cares about what the hold music is?

  • Why does anyone care what George Freakin' Foreman has to say about phone call music? Did he really listen to patriotic music to psyche up for a fight?

  • Why idiotic? Im tired of that Kind of noise, too.

  • patriotic songs are lame, but smooth jazz is lamer

  • Single women are looking for love busizz4me.info

  • bush was way smarter then Obama, BUSH PLAYED STUPID AND HE PLAYED ALL OF YOU 8 YEARS 2 WARS THE BIGGEST ATTACK ON MAINLAND AMERICA SINCE THE AMERICAN . HE PLAYED THE FOOL ON TV AND IN THE MEDIA BUT BEHIND THE SCENES HE MADE FUCKING BILLIONS WITH PRIVATIZING MILITARY CONTRACTS WAKE THE FUCK UP HE WAS DEFINETLY ONE OF THE SMARTEST PRESIDENTS HE PLAYED YOU GUYS THE BUSH FAMILY IS A FUCKING CARTEL

  • "We're the only country where you can contact your representatives" Only an American could say that.

  • lol american patriot music all sounds faggotty,then again they do have a guy in a stars and stripes suit to represent america,if that isnt gay i dont know what is :)

  • @YoJimBoHugabaJoe Oh, you mean besides people being sexually attracted to other people of the same gender? *facepalm*

  • They should totally put Eminem.

  • I'm pretty sure Jazz is American as it gets, love it or hate it.

  • fuck fox news

  • Sorry, I clicked on this by accident. Thought it said TIT. My bad.

  • this is news?

  • I think to have smooth jazz feels more better cause it calms you down and doesn't make you feel pumped to go HELLO MR CONGRESSMAN I WOULD LIKE TO SAY GOOD AMERICAN DAY!, I mean jazz is good but it seems PERFECT to give us choices

  • if i were a congressman, i'd have disaterpieces, by shitknot

  • u fuking american fuk tards... who is preparing for a fight when calling the congressman... what?!?!?!?

    i can't blve this, this is the most moronic subject EVER!!!!!!!!

    by the way , jazz is from... USA, fucknuts...

    but wait!! it's black folks music!!! that's the real reason, isn't it, fukers, mm?

  • @thedayitriedtodie jazz originated in Africa

  • @thedayitriedtodie EXACTLY!!! Nice post. These fucking republinuts are insane. The demohacks are almost as bad though. We are all run by the rich... period.

  • @thedayitriedtodie You really suck at typing in the English language lol. And why do you have so much trouble spelling the word Fuck...and the word believe? Go to third grade before you talk trash. 10 people liked your comment, which is sad, I guess there are a lot of dumb people like you out there. Degradation of the human race. You fail at life...and spelling

  • @Ghats212

    no, u failed. Cause u assume that for one i can't spell, and nr 2, that english is my natural language witch isn't.

  • @thedayitriedtodie Moronic? Are you fucking retarded or some shit? Fukers? Blve? Wtf is Blve?. fucknuts? What you do every night?

  • @thedayitriedtodie You shouldn't type until you're sober.

  • @thedayitriedtodie Hey man u think us Americans arent embarrassed. The tea party and fox are what others think represents us all, trust me they're not!

  • @thedayitriedtodie Jazz is African American!

  • @thedayitriedtodie Spoken like a true american. Maybe they should let you on the show. Oh but wait, then again, if they did that, you'd probably make them look like the bunch of babbling tin foil hat wearing cooks that they are...

  • @akthemoor

    funniest part is that i ain't even american!

  • @thedayitriedtodie Well in that case thats the saddest part, becuase you understand the culture more than 75% of the countrie's own citizens. This is why I no longer live in the US myself. Try getting your average "red blooded" american to admit to that! HA it would never happen. This will be the reason America may very well fall in the near future. Cheers.

  • @thedayitriedtodie You're the fucktard, its spelled believe*

  • @ImmuneToFearr

    It's called abreviation, rtard.

  • @thedayitriedtodie Don't be so fucking lazy

  • Great, now I'm obligated to hate George Foreman.

  • IMHO, both musical selections put me to sleep. Give me Combichrist!

    

  • Jazz is boring. A good sedative.

  • What is te bid deal sounds to me, that lady is just trying to start trouble. lol

  • The country is DROwing in red ink...and our leaders have time to pay attention to this...

  • Your video was going good until you got to your commentary.

  • a complete waste of government work hours and tax dollars

  • Who the fuck cares about patriotic music. It's primitive (heck, Einstein called patriotism an "infantile disease", although I can't claim I'm completely free from it either - but I'm far, FAR from as patriotic [regarding Sweden] as the average American is).

  • Jazz is an American as anything even more then Patriotic music?

  • didnt patriotic music originate b4 jazz? =P

  • There are no good patriotic tunes

  • your videos suck ass with the gay commentary just show the fucking video

  • douchey guy on Young Turks, just boring.

  • u can't get more american than jazz.

  • ahh this is so inane its making my head hurt!!

  • really??? fox thought this was news worthy, to be honest fox are morons for thinking it was and nancy was a moron for thinking that anyone gave a shit about what music was being played when theyre put on hold

    whether they play music thats patriotic to americans or some pink floyd, getting put on hold is fucking annoying and i dont think any caller would give a shit what music was playing as they were on hold, this whole event was just unbelievably stupid

  • You'd think they had something better to argue about.

  • ummmmmm for 1. it's not ONLY in America where you can call your Representative... Why do they always try and make out that America is the ONLY place in the world that has freedom! I find that totally annoying. (from Australia)

  • @krystallf Because Americans are better than everyone else. Why? because we are americans and we are better because we are americans because we were born in the US.

    Oh and we are always right and never do anything wrong (except the lefty libs they can't do anything right).

    PS: This is the bullshit that the conservatives spit out in my country, I am almost embarrassed to admit I live on the same continent as these guys. Scratch that I am embarrassed.

    What's it like in Australia?

  • @mrhnm Its pretty sweet down under... (I'm in New Zealand though)

  • @pubuman What's the cost of living and what do you use as currency?

  • @mrhnm New Zealand dollars, the cost of living is more than manageable, probably some of the lowest in the "developed" world.

  • @pubuman Sweet hows the job market out there? 

  • @mrhnm depending on what you are looking for its different. We weren't hit as some other places so jobs are still there, but we aren't a big economy so there are fewer overall jobs. What kind of work are you into?

  • @pubuman Sales mostly.

  • @mrhnm Ah in that case you will have no problem finding a job here...

  • @pubuman Ok cool

  • Hahaha - how funny, he is talking german!? How does that come?

    Well, I am German so I am a little surprised - are the Nazis still used if it comes to point up nationalistic idiocracy?

  • @Mumbamumba

    JA WOHL!!! i wonder where he picked those words? but i have to tell u, i laughed so hard as he said that

  • @Mumbamumba Some how yes. And patriotism is not nationalism even though they are the same. Why? because patriotism is good and nationalism is bad. Why? because patriotism is American and Americans are better than everyone.

    PS Wie geht's?

    PPS: This is not what I think this is what the idiots on the right in my country think.

  • good jazz, is about freedom ! I prefer the "elevator music" any day! long live jazzers !

    ohh, yeah, jazz is the only true "American" music.. we don't have to just listen to bad quality recordings of Souza... even though some of that is good too ! How about we just mix it all up ! All music is good, it's all about what mood your trying to satisfy...

  • @larryjohnny "Elevator music" is now called "smooth jazz".

    I think I understand where she's coming from. I think the logic behind it is that these patriotic subtleties fuel nationalism, a destructive form of brainwashing.

  • good jazz, is about freedom ! I prefer the "elevator music" any day! long live jazzers !

  • lol so fucking stupid

  • young jerks....nothing better to discuss??

  • @robertabramson

    What's sad is that this was a Fox News story. Hearing "Patriotic" Music probably falls on deaf ears, or ears yakking into a blackberry.

  • Didn't Jazz originate in the states?

  • @kmvoss Yes! Immediately what I thought.

  • jazz did originate here your right.

    silly fox news.

  • @kmvoss yes, it's the only real American music, rock and roll is British Crap ! j/k.. it's all good, but when the pilgrams (thieves and outcasts from England) came here they didn't have any talent, until they brought slaves eventually, which was cruel as hell, but atleast they were kind enough to give this country some music, pure blues and jazz.. Go listen to Kind of Blue Album and let it blow away your mind ! coltrane, miles davis, etc.

  • @kmvoss

    I don't know if smooth jazz counts as actual jazz.

  • No one likes being on hold... And, if you care what the hell you hear in the background you're not very bright. I don't give a shit what Foreman says... He's taken too many blows to the head. Remember when he got his ass kicked by Ali? Good times!!!

  • you can clearly see all of the people on Fox and Friends enjoyed the jazz song more than the patriotic tunes.

  • George Foreman needs to start knocking out bums.

  • George Foreman needs to realize he's a has-been. He was exposed as a hack when Mohamed Ali kicked his ass. And, Ali would still beat him today even with his condition...

  • @WorldBFree2006 Foreman won the heavyweight title again when he was 45 and has just as many loses as Ali. Look at Ali vs Trevor Berbick if you want to see a has been at 39.

  • @cablemachine Are you you saying Foreman was a better boxer than Ali?

  • In my opinion I think Foreman was better than Ali, I know he lost to Ali in Zaire but they never had a rematch but Ali fought Frazier and Norton 3 times. If they had a rematch and Ali won then I would say that Ali was the better fighter.

  • That's cool, I'm a bit of a Foreman fan myself, but I'm a huge Ali fan. I'd never seen anyone mix speed and power the way he did. But, it's just a matter of opinon really... cheers!!!

  • These kids, er, politicians, don't know what the jazz is all about! I don't listen to a lot of it but it's feel good music. And it spawned the many popular genres of American music today. Rock came from big band and jazz, funk came from rock, hip hop came from funk, and it goes on.

    Without jazz we would probably just have derivatives of country and bluegrass music playing all day long

  • Is all jazz music elevator music, or is all elevator music jazz music.
