The prime time program shuffle resulting from the Bill O'Reilly departure from Fox News Channel is seriously flawed, and will fail quickly with a massive loss of viewers of "The Five".....now slated for the 9:00PM time slot. The show is boring, with only one member of "The Five" worth her salt {KG), and, it is not Dana Perino, who is terrible. The three males are losers with little substance. Bob Beckel and Juan Williams are not dummies...but 100% empty suits!!!
The winning line up would be:
- Martha McCallum at 7:00PM - Tucker Carlson at 8:00PM - Jesse Watters at 9:00PM - Sean Hannity at 10:00PM
A winning combination, IMHO!!!
No judgement. I had said that I try to watch Tucker every night. Not an either/or proposition - a both/and.
I love his show.
Oh no......PLEASE not The Five.
McCallum sucks and Watters is not ready for prime time, other than on Saturdays. ..........JMO
Carlson doesnt seem capable of shutting up libs.
**************************************
He asks them specific questions that they refuse to answer and lets them talk to demonstrate how far left they are and how they continue to lie about things.
Agree with your take on The Five participants.
Beckel and Geraldo are no-nos. Juan is a lib but often fair.
I think Gutfeld is a deeper thinker than many people believe, but he often tries to inject his thoughts with analogies that many don’t understand.
What about Cuvotto? Move him to 7.
****************************************
Cavuto is a big bore with a horrible voice. I know he’s a VP at FBN, but he doesn’t inform or entertain.
I’d like to see Harris Faulkner take McCallum’s slot.
with no voice and without a strong personality taking the lead, this network will collapse.. Voluntary suicide. I hope the Murdoch boys enjoy the parties...
I said the same thing. They suck and the ratings will stink.
**I think Gutfeld is a deeper thinker than many people believe, but he often tries to inject his thoughts with analogies that many dont understand.**
GG has writers. Others who do his *thinking* for him. There are times when G doesn’t use a writer, and you can tell.
*Deep thinker*?!? LOL
In so doing gives them unfettered air time for propaganda without a counter. Dumb strategy.
Hmmm let’s see...
1) We have Juan Williams and Bob Beckel that are Leftist and Globalists.
2) We have Greg Gutfeld (who is not funny or whitty) and Dana Perino that are both total Globalist. They both hate Nationists and President Trump like Juan and Bob.
3) The only Nationalists are Eric Bolling, who is great and probably why he is leaving the Five and leaving Kimberly Guilfoyle to fend on her own.
In other words it’s 4 Globalists against 1 mediocre Nationalist.
This is terrible because the most Fox Viewers are Nationalists and not Globalists. So Fox is taking a Prime Time slot to get the Globalists pitch.
I would leave the 5 right were there are with the same crew minus Bob and Juan. Those two are useless and overpaid. They add nothing to the debate that has not been heard 1000 times before on other Leftist channels.
The time is ripe for a new channel to take over. If OAN is smart, then they will pick up Bill O’Reilly. Personally I can’t stand Bill, but no doubt he would pull people from Fox over to One America’s Network.
As long as advertisers continue to mistake astro turfers and bots for real people, you'll never have real news.
Have to move to audience support. The sooner Fox collapses and takes the collapsing chromosome Murdochs with it, the sooner talented people will be able to go their own way.
It’s about gratitude. It’s about honor. Something nobody seems to have anymore.
Don’t watch......no opinion.
Happy Birthday, Hildy!
Love your posts.
But the women were effing off the charts...
So cheer up...that's an order
it was a privilege...women were still happpy to be girls

I turned 60 last week.
It’s about how he was forced out...that is the problem. One guy at media matters deploys a string of false websites that threaten advertisers, making it seem like there is this popular groundswell of anti O’Reilly sentiment amongst folks who might boycott the advertisers’ products. In truth there never really was such a groundswell but Fox News had to take it seriously when a bunch of advertisers pulled their products from his show. By the way both sides can play this game and when we can get the list of advertisers who pulled their products...we can “Carbonite” them the same as we did when Rush was similarly threatened!
That is what needs to be stopped, this ability of single sociopaths to manufacture enough smoke and thunder that huge economic tsunami’s that sway politicians and gaslight businesses, are generated by means of false narratives. This one guy at media matters is even bragging about how he took O’Reilly down with nothing but a bunch of false websites and fake petitions aimed at advertisers. There’s a Rico violation to be found in all that!
So O’Reilly was probably a horndog and didn’t help himself much by his own private behavior. I don’t see prosecutors lining up to put him jail on some legal charge and civil lawsuits always come down to how much one can tug the heartstrings of the jurors!
The only way to stop the “false dummy” internet attacks is to punish advertisers back when they choose political sides without some strong evidence that the one they wish to not associate with may truly impact their bottom lines!
Firing Line, Crossfire, McLaughlin Group- those were all excellent.
