I can't believe so many people watch Greta's shows on Natalie Holloway (sp?). It's so different from the rest of Fox News (except for those police car chases), in that it is covered as a local missing person story with no political significance.

To each his own, I guess.

It seems to me that Fox is not all that conservative.

Frankly, I've been watching a lot more History Channel since Fox adopted the 'all Natalie all the time' format. I don't understand how all that 'A Current Affair'-type TV gets such good ratings on a network that bills itself as a news outlet.

Gretta's show? The entire Fox evening is filled with this CourtTV stuff. It has almost ruined Bill O'Reilly and I can't even stand to watch Sean Hannity and his sidekick. Before Natalie it was the little girl raped by the druggie in Florida and before that it was the runaway bride and before that it was some other unfortunate but attractive blond person. These are tragedies but they hardly merit the kind of coverage they are getting when there is so much other critically more important stuff happening in the world.

I get something like 500 digital channels over my cable. I wish just one would cover the news.

Don't sell Greta short. She's a no nonsense interviewer, she doesn't stick to a script, she listens to her guests and then comes up with astute questions. Since Katrina, she's moved off so much Aruba, and onto excellent segments on this subject.

I've watched CNN Wolf Blitzer The Situation, and it's embarrassing to watch. Blitzer is ill at ease with all the gimmicks and gadgets. Every other sentence is a self-promoting, self-promoting boast. An empty boast, if you ask me. CNN has devolved into a cheap imitation of FOXNEWS. It ain't working!

You might get a kick out of this lead-in line on fark.com regarding the Aruba coverage:

"Aruba authorites re-arrest brothers in desperate attempt to make Greta Van Susteren leave island."

Gretta's show has essentially morphed into a video version of "True Detective" magazine. Surprisingly, this has turned out to be very popular.

The truth be told, I watch it just to help boost the ratings so I can flip the finger to the anti-Americans at CNN and MSNBC. Otherwise, I would not watch it.
