Fox News Channel has a feisty new employee: retiring Sen. Zell Miller, D-Ga.
"We will plug him in wherever we can use him," Kevin Magee, vice president of programming, told the Washington Post.
"I am excited to be joining Fox News Channel," stated Miller, 72, author of "A National Party No More" and rip-roaring keynote speaker at the GOP presidential convention.
The Post noted today: "Zell Miller's Really Big Night at the Republican convention was a watershed moment for Fox News Channel as well.
"FNC surprised many by beating ABC, CBS and NBC in head-to-head ratings competition on both nights of the televised GOP get-together. And the margin was widest on the night of Miller's keynote, followed by Vice President Cheney's speech."
Replace Greta Van Suspect

Uhhhh, wasn't the MSM at the time saying that Zell was over the top, needs medical attention , crazy, and he would ultimately hurt Ws re election bid. They couldn't have possibly been wrong---could they????
I hope he makes big bucks and I hope they put him on in the mornings with E.D. gang.
This is great! I love listening to Zell speak, he will be a great addition to Fox News.

Now we can actually see that pistol duel with Zell gunning down Chris 'Spitballs' Matthews!
Give em hell Dell!!!!!!!
Zell is kkkeeewwwwllll.
Smart move by Fox.
I agree...a very smart good move by FNC. Brings a new, deeper look into Washington from the "insider" perspective. Can't wait to see where this goes.
It would have been fun to watch him and Chris Matthews on the same show, though...
He's irritating.
Get him to replace Bill Kristol on the Fox News Sunday panel. We thought Brit Hume's weekly smackdown of Juan was good....
I can't STAND Matthews, but I was referring to their verbal fight during the pubbie convention--the one where Zell challenged him to a duel.
I wish I was Zell Miller.
I agree, but can you imagine the fireworks when Zell would verbally b*tchslap Juan?
