aaarrrggghhhh..what a lineup.
Must be convention time.

[Bahbah]

"aaarrrggghhhh..what a lineup."

Well, at least Fox has the panel. Otherwise it is all pretty awful. I hope Brit Hume is around.

[Alas Babylon!]

Yes. Fair and balanced. And the libs say Fox News is right-wing?

[Elkiejg]

Nothing but RATS everywhere -- another peaceful morning away from the TV.

"It's hard for me to believe that FOX will not have an anchor present."

I can't help but wonder whether they were asked.

[Just mythoughts]

This morning looks like a "spiritual" experience under the Cult of Clintonism. (Media included)!

[maica]

The only question I want answered, by every D in front of a camera today is "What do you think the appropriate punishment for Sandy Berger should be, for the crime of stealing Top Secret Code Word papers from the National Archives?"

[anita]

Not only during covention time. Try watching Wendell FOWLER, James RICIN or Kelly WRONG. Fox should better watch itself.

[leadpenny]

Sometimes the list of guests who will be on different forums is not complete. I can't believe it's because they weren't asked. C-SPAN, MSNBC and FOX have offices in the same building near Union Station in DC.

[Miss Marple]

I have no trouble believing that the Kennedy School of government wouldn't invite Fox. God forbid that Brit Hume be on that panel...then the bash-Bush/love Kerry message would be diluted!

[Just mythoughts]

"Not only during covention time. Try watching Wendell FOWLER, James RICIN or Kelly WRONG. Fox should better watch itself."


On Friday morning Chris Wallace was on Fox -n- Friends, and made the claim that he was taking all the producers of Fox News to the Red Sox's game for the purpose of gaining himself more air time.

He may well have been joking but sure did not sound like it.
My first thought was wonder what Brit Hume will have to say about this.

[mathluv]

I may watch the panel on FNS - don't think I have the stomach for the rest.

[Gritty]

For some strange reason or other, Sandy Berger didn't make today's line-up.

[TomGuy]

Wishful thinking:

This afternoon Drudge or someone drops a big one--the scandal, the ender of political careers, the truth-- and this turns the Democrat Convention upside down. And the infighting begins for a new nominee.

It would make for good TV. And the major nets and CNN and MSNBC would use a boost in ratings.

Alas, and alack, this whole Convention seems to be shaping up to be as dull as one of Kerry's rambling, inane, dull, boring, laborious, monotonous stump speeches.

[anita]

Certainly, Brit 's best & Wash.Mg.Editor. But many times, except for Jim Angle (the best), WH reporting team is under control of Peter Chernin, VP of NewsCorp. & Kerry supporter. Several times you could see the anchors show their stunning when Wendell FOOLER reports.
