U.S. Sen. Zell Miller will be joining Fox News Channel as a contributor next month, Fox announced Tuesday.
Kevin Magee, vice president for programming at Fox, said in a news release that the Georgia Democrat will begin appearing on the network in January.
"I am excited to be joining FOX News Channel and am eager to contribute to the continuing success of the network," Miller said in the release.
Miller was governor of Georgia for two terms and was appointed to the Senate to fill the unexpired term of Republican Sen. Paul Coverdell in 2000. He has also taught both history and political science as a professor at University of Georgia, Young Harris College and Emory University.
Miller, a strong supporter of President Bush, was the keynote speaker at the Republican National Convention earlier this year. He has infuriated many Democrats with his independent stance.
WOWOWOW
how did I miss this announcement!!
GREAT NEWS!
I'd rather he replace O'Reilly.
Doubtful. For example, he has Laura on his but won't come on hers.
"The Miller Factor" at 8PM EST. 'Nuf said.
Yeah, I don't watch O'Really because he's a pompous ass. I don't watch H&C anymore because it's boring. I don't even have to go into why I don't watch GVS. I gave them up entirely for the end of the election season. Disconnected the cable. I was sick of their shight. Now I have cable back, and I watch them some, but the thrill is gone. Zell might be just the spark they need. I can't be the only one drifting away.
Reagan is the one that really did it though.
kewl!
Isn't it "yellow dog?"
PING
When Fox is good they're very very good.
Nope, but if I was Bill O'R, I'd be worried about my job.
Actually, I think Hannity needs a *real* liberal to argue with. Colmes is just boring.
My daughter lives in fear every day that I'm gonna put my foot through the TV Screen....
Maybe we can get rid of Bill O'Reilly and make it the Zello-O Factor.
It's MILLER time!
Alan Coalmes is okay.... He seems to know right from wrong.
WooHoo!!!!!!!
I missed he was no longer going to be around, than FOX announces this early Christmas present.
Better yet, give Zell his own show opposite Matthews!
He has infuriated many Democrats with his independent stance.
The truth of it is that he IS a Democrat and they are not! They are socialists/communists. What infuriates them is that the average "Democrat" agrees with him.
Great picture! When Zell is on FNC I hope he tells some of his stories. He's got a great one about a snake under his porch steps and not asking his wife how to deal with it! (hint, hint to dems and the UN).
Great news Zell! Maybe my tag line helped.Not that you needed it!
