It’s not that I can’t stand Fox News; it’s just that I have no use for them.

I will say this: Of all the slimey news networks; Fox News is the least slimiest.

While all the other networks are hardcore commie, Fox is Democrat-lite.

Yawn.

Stupid me - I thought Fox was “fair & balanced” & held to the truth. What do I know?

Looks like they have their own axes to grind.

Is Fox biased for certain candidates? Sure, they were biased for McInsane in 2008. However, I am not buying that they have some “conspiracy” to get Palin.

When Bill O’Reilly kept interrupting her interviews and finally Governor Palin confronted him on television, Bill’s ego was hurt and he didn’t like it.

O'Reilly is like an elephant with this stuff. He'll forevermore hold it against her. Comparatively, Greta Van Sustern is pretty fair - she let's the interviewee answer questions - which is why Palin does interviews with Greta. Which pisses off O'Reilly because he has a huge ego.

The trouble is, the "new" Fox is really boring. Without Beck, why watch OR? Why do they want to become Katie Couric, who's now washed-up?

If I don't have Beck to watch, will I bother to watch Bret at 6? If OR is even more of an obsequious jerk who's always drooling at the prospect of an Obama interview?

I already hate Fox on the weekends because I'm afraid I'll catch a glimpse of their Darling Jerry Rivers. Ugh. Does anyone tune in hoping to see that silly dandy with the Burger King plastic surgery? That's who Ailes wants as their "brand"--the absurd clown from Jimmy Hoffa's safe cracking?

At this point she has not declared her candidacy.

So she is not running at this point.

Will she ? I don’t know.

. The tactic now is to make Palin’s life as difficult and as miserable as possible until Palin just gets frustrated and leaves on her own citing irreconcilable differences. Things are going to get worse. Fox is about to up the ante and it’s going to get ugly.

I've always made places fire me once they've given the "hint" to leave. Inevitably the people that fire me end up leaving within the next year or so.

This race is shaping up to be a disaster. Part of me wishes that the Palinistas will get her as the nominee, only to have lose to Obama in a landslide. Then, at least we won’t have to hear that the reason we lost is because we nominated a RINO or that her 60% hate index among independents wouldn’t have made a difference on election day.

Then, we’ll get to see the unleashed Marxist in all his glory. He’ll be signing executive orders and issuing EPA diktats like he smokes cigs, and we can all say – “Hey, at least we didn’t nominate some drab, two-faced RINO”. Yippee!

I only watch Fox News because they are the least slimy of all the slime out there..Anyone who actually believed that Fox News was a Conservative network needed to get their head examined..it was NEVER a Conservative network, just a little better then the MSDNC and the CNN’s out there that are totally in the tank for Obama

The interesting question is whether Roger Ailes is behind these attacks on Palin, or thought that he could manipulate her like a puppet.

BOR is simply behaving him like himself. Nobody needs to instruct him how to make himself obnoxious—he does it by nature.

It seems to me that Fox could have let Palin go when they let two other potential candidates go. That would have given them sufficient defense against attacking a woman. Besides, there isn’t a feminist anywhere who likes Palin anyway.

Does Roger Ailes want to be the Soros of the right? I find that hard to believe. What he has done best is make money for Fox News by doing what’s needed to increase their ratings. Hiring Palin certainly made sense from that point of view.

FNC ping,

It seems like just yesterday that Obama was launching a War on FNC. How time flies. Checkout all these post comments defending FNC just 18 months ago:

THE WHITE HOUSE - Despite the President's promise of a swift and decisive victory, Obama's War on Fox News has developed all signs of an unwinnable quagmire, making the White House even more isolated in its unilateral attempts to crush the growing media insurgency
Obama's War on Fox News Becomes a Quagmire(FR post, People's Cube | 10-20-09)

MSNBC anyone ? LOL

Yes she did. Hot Damn this gal is a real American. Palin, Palin, Palin. Why aren't there more like her? O'Reilly never recovered.

Sarah is a big girl and has a few rounds under her belt with those who've underestimated her in the past. Watch it, Fox, you're not invincible.
