Oops. Should say “has anyone ever seen him go after MSNBC.”

I am not Roman Catholic by any stretch of the imagination, and I myself have basically said the following in the past:

I would like to see anchors, hosts, at Fox News etc, that are Evangelical, Eastern Orthodox, Messianic Jews, Billy Graham types, Charismatics, Pentecostals, etc, etc.

Why so many Roman Catholics?

And will Todd Friel say anything about MSNBC, CNN, FSTV, LINK TV, etc?

The Fox Morning Team: Both Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade are Roman Catholics...

The Five: Four out of five ain't bad. Bob Beckel, Dana Perino, Eric Bolling, and Greg Gutfeld are all Roman Catholic...

PFL

I’m more for practice than affiliation and I’ll bet there is more of that on Fox than most any other media or political office holder. Besides can you imagine the firestorm if Fox started to select hosts on basis of religious practice?

A wretched idea from a wretched source!

How’s about our present Supreme Court?

Six Roman Catholics and three Jews.

I thought conservatives were against hiring by quotas, preferring people to be judged on their individual merits?

The Five: Four out of five ain't bad. Bob Beckel ...

Because he's a big, fat, White Northern Democrat guy who claims to have played football at some point?

Actually, according to his Wikipedia page, he's Protestant.

Greta Van Susteren is a Scientologist.

It would be a real surprise if Shepherd Smith were Catholic.

Mike Huckabee is -- well you know about Huckabee.

But there are two faulty assumptions here:

The first is that most media people are anything more than nominally religious.

The second is that any media outlet has to have some kind of quota system and carefully hire people based on religion to be "fair and balanced in the religion department."

The religion angle doesn’t particularly bother me, per se. I’m more put off by how FoxNews has tended to become so pro-amnesty, pro-dope, and pro-homo marriage.

Honestly, it’s really gotten to the point that the blather from FoxNews hardly seems any preferable than the blather from CNN. Same morally degenerate garbage. I used to have FoxNews on all the time, as a practical default position on my tv-channel dial. Nowadays at most I might catch a half-hour of its programming per week. And usually that’s more than enough!

Bill O’Reilly, Laura Ingraham and Sean Hannity are Catholics, not evangelicals, just an FYI. They have all talked about it, so I’m not sure why someone would post that they were something else, it’s not a secret...

Let’s remember that Nancy Pelosi is a Catholic as well and what in the hell does that matter?

With people worrying about “diversity” so much, lets not worry about what someone’s religion is, let’s concentrate on what their ACTIONS are. Anyone can be baptized in a religion, but that says nothing about who they are or what they stand for, example being the wicked witch of California...

There are a couple of factual inaccuracies in this article. Bob Beckel claims to be Protestant. I think Dana Perino has mentioned being a Lutheran. Gutfeld might have been raised Catholic, but now identifies as agnostic.

Every one of these people ... except for maybe Hannity ... are pro queer “marriage”, so are therefore NOT true Catholics.

This list of “Catholics” on FOX is fine, I suppose; but failing to mention Judge Andrew Napolitano in such a list is a serious error. I would hope that it was simply an oversight.

For those who not aware, not only is Judge Napolitano a Roman Catholic, he is the only person (of those mentioned) on FOX that publicly acknowledges the fact that he attends the daily Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. It might also be noted that he is what some people refer to as “Traditional Roman Catholic”.

You should know that when the name Bill O’Reilly is mentioned in what is suggested as an exhaustive a list of prominent “Catholics” on FOX; and the name of Judge Andrew Napolitano is never even mentioned; many faithful Catholics are rightly offended.

Bob Beckel claims he’s a born-again Christian, so he’s not a Catholic.

Greg Gutfeld was raised Catholic, but now says he’s an athiest.

Juan Williams is Episcopalian

Glenn Beck is a Morman.

How it must gall the libs that 99% of those who watch Fox News couldn’t care less what religion (or race, or sex) the on-air talent follows. Rational people don’t separate themselves by such things. Could it be that the Fox viewers are way more “tolerant” than the lefties will ever be?

Why is anyone surprised by this.

It is well known that Catholics are smarter, better educated, more honest, have greater integrity, wiser, and are better looking.

They are also holier and are better Christians than any others.

That’s why Fox News hires them and Presidents appoint them to the Supreme Court.

If you don’t know that you are a hateful bigot.
