all one has to do is notice the nature of the commercial advertising on "The Five," "Special Report," etc. Almost all of it is targeted to the elderly, such as reverse mortgages and medicines.

Yup, Viagra, bladder control, hair loss........

FOX isn’t playing King of the Hill anymore. It’s playing who can be the last down the hill.

“The Five” is the best show on FNC.

Can't stand anything with Bob Beckel on it. After his action to investigate the Republican electors in 2000 where the only possible reason would be to blackmail or extort them into voting for Gore put him at the top of my list of enemies to the country.

They need to put Bob Beckel and Juan Williams in commercials for blabber control.

There isn’t a woman beautiful enough in the whole wide world to make it worth watching while Beckel is on.

Amen brother. Except I skip CNN.

Fox is the only news that I get, but I have lost interest in all news out of the US...just too depressing.

When I want news, any one of the 7 days a week, I go to Drudge and FR. CNN? NEVER! And I also get a lot of ‘heads up’ in emails I get.

Oh, I dislike CNN’s politics, but when there is breaking news on Sat. or Sun., they are right there. Their reporters are at the ready, all over the world. So, for instance, if I come on here and read about a tsunami in Japan, I turn on CNN and they are the first with the video.

You can’t take that away from them.

Ha! I quit Foxnews altogether because of Bob Beckel: a bag-of-cr@p held together by suspenders with a pin-head balanced on top.

Then I got smart and cut the cable altogether, no longer supporting the cable-bundled libs. I still watch some Redeye on my ROKU unless the maroon Andy hosts.

There’s an old Bob Hope joke that fits in here, but I don’t want to upset the Sunday mods.

LOL - you got me. Just after posting Never CNN to GGpaX4DumpedTea, I admit that in breaking disasters CNN is going to be there first with more, so I will tune in. (Blushing)

Haha! Love that description of Beckel.

He keeps the job bcause he is a member of FOX’s Old Boys Club, aka Alcoholics Anonymous.
