Is Fox News becoming the 2nd CNN? They are hiring too many CNN ex's.

I believe she is of Iranian descent. I had actually heard she had conservative leanings.

I am concerned to the effect that she may be bringing the cancerous leftism that permeates CNN with her to FNC. Does anyone know the backstory of why she made the move?

I still have my suspicions about the intern that returned to FNC from CNN, and then accused O'Reilly of chronic sexual harrassment...being a CNN paid-off "trickster".

It seems that FNC is being infiltrated with CNN Lib refugees lately.
