I've always enjoyed Cavuto's program. For a small business owner without a college degree, I appreciate the "plain language" he insists on using, so that everybody can understand what ever topic is "up".

But my respect for him, real honest to God respect, began the day he explained why he wore an American Flag lapel pin.

"I'm an American first, a Journalist second".

I wish that was the universal standard on American programs that are news based.

The annoying thing is, Fox isn't all that righty. Their news isn't at all since, in large part, they're stuck with AP reports like everyone else. As for their editorials, they are righty - but it's the righty take on all the topics the New York Times thinks we should be talking about. That's good, but it's not really good enough.

I regard the press in this country to be on the same level as communist, socialist democrats, liberals, leftists, and trial lawyers. Lower than Whale s**t!

The success of Fox is not so much that they have a conservative bias (they do have a mild conservative bias but its nowhere as pronounced as the liberal bias at other networks), but rather that they let cogent, well spoken, and engaging conservatices TALK.

For decades the other networks would consistently set up straw men as conservative spokespeople. Well meaning, but easily befuddled and otherwise unimpressive conservatices would be pitted against slick, trained liberals. The result was that the conservative message rarely if ever was communicated.

Fox balances that, that's all. It's amazing to me that the real thing that upsets liberal critics of Fox News is that Fox simply lets the conservative message accross (along with the liberal message). Heavens, we can't have that!

We saw Neil and had him sign 4 copies of his book on Tuesday. He seems to be a really nice guy, witty, happy to be there, and truly pleased (almost surprised) that you are buying his book. He looked every person in the eye, thanked them and shook their hands.

His book is very good. It points out what is really important in life. I am also a cancer survivor and a small business owner, and found it inspiring. I got copies for me and Mr. G. and our kids.

It's the live car chases in L.A. - they do them better than all the rest.

“People have a real problem hearing both sides,” Ailes observes. “I don’t and I don’t think our viewers do.”

I do not know, I think I am ready for a total conservative news channel because I am absolutely sick of liberals.

Thanks for the post. Always liked Cavuto, especially his opinion segment at the end of his program.

The pack journalists are not intrinsically evil.

They're just intrinsically mentally ill.

Actually they ARE evil, because they sell their careers for a paycheck, they report what their employer wants them to report, because they want to stay on the journalistic gravy train.

Still, Cavuto believes more journalists than you can imagine at liberal establishment media yearn to be free of the shacles of political correctness.

I suppose that makes sense.
