Which Fox News anchors/reporters/pundits/hosts do you think are really, sincerely right-leaning? (VANITY)
We probably all prefer Fox News over CNN, CNBC, the network news shows, etc.
But I was wandering as I was watching the election night coverage and Brit Hume seemed so giddy with excitement when Bush started to pull away - what are the true political leanings of the Fox News staff?
My take:
Bill O'Reilly - Basically a slightly left-leaning Libertarian redeemed by a belief in a vigorous American foreign policy and a sneering content for the MSM
Brit Hume - love the guy....with us 100%, I believe...I LOVED the way he interacted in such an over-the-top way with Susan Estritch on election night basically wiping her face with Kerry's loss....
Fred Barnes - same as Brit, 'red' to the core....but fair and honest in his analysis..
Shep Smith - seems to also take glee in Democratic pain but not so sure....his very patriotic stances make me think he's one of us, though...
Sean Hannity - no issues with Sean....
Morton Kondracke - middle of the road leftie but fair....
Greta Van Susteren - big time left winger if I had to guess...
Juan Williams - leftie....no doubt about it....
What do you all think???
Heather Nauert - Brains and the looks.
If we had Scarborough there would be absolutely zero reason to watch anything on MSNBC.. now that I think about it -- Debora Norville is better than Gretta.
Geraldo - left
I have to confess I loved watch Susan and Juan protesting to Britt Tuesday night when he was going to call Ohio for the President... they both kept saying: but the exit poll... Susan looked either soused or crying, probably the latter.
Now that is a plus that is rare among the extreme liberal leftists of whom there is a plethora "ad infinauseous"!
It was reported that 85% of the campaign donations by Fox personalities were given to Kerry. So apparently they keep their liberal biases in pretty good check to accommodate their audience. I'd like to see that listing myself. And of course, SeeBS and NBC gave 100% to Kerry.
You guys forget Linda Vester -- I think she leans right.
I like Shep too, I like to hear his take on events.
I wish I could have seen that. Don't blame me. I voted for Rocky.
Good; sink MSNBC.
The absolute stud-of-them-all is Charles Krauthammer! Brit is fabulous but has to keep it square. Fred is great. Mort is an honest Liberal, and a great human being. Greta's a useless Lefty!
Great! You have learned something. When you make a charge back it up. Don't let it hang in thin air without legs. Remember this. When you make a claim or charge it isn't up to those to whom you are speaking to support what you say. That is solely your responsibility.
Also,when a question arises over what you have said is it necessary to resort to "Piss off" as a response? That seems childish.
What about Campaign Carl? I think he's red.

I must have missed this. Sounds wonderful though.
Charles Krauthammer. Great man. A real jewel on that panel.
Yes, Brit stood out among all the other jouornalists when he was just a youngster back in the old days.
100% agreement! I can't believe I neglected those two honeys. Add Juliette Huddy to the list as well.
Good afternoon.
When he is in some wild, dangerous place with a goofy grin on his face I like Jerry Rivers and can overlook his lefty stance. When he is home talking about wife killers and politicians I find him irritating.
