Fox's aim is to hit a wider audience, and they are very successful at it. The hiring of Mancow fits into their goals.

I'm not talking about highbrow, I'm talking about very low lowbrow. Mancow may have reinvented himself lately, but if he hasn't publicly renounced his outrageous radio and TV programs of approx. ten years ago, it's in poor taste to present him as a celebrity for mass entertainment.

By probability, there are many who have died by now, from being enticed into doing the degrading things he pushed and told stories about. Many others, who have abused themselves and others, spiritually, physically, and lastingly, at his prompting. He sold extreme immorality. Wholesale.

Unless you have access to the man's heart, I don't know if you can fairly judge whether or not he has reformed. And the fact that you are so concerned about his well-being may move you to pray for him.

But insisting that your taste in entertainment should be the standard is foolhardy. You will not win the argument that way. In fact, I'm more tempted to tune into his program to see if there is anything offensive there or not.

From what I saw on Fox and Friends in the past, he is not a debased human being. I find O'Reilley to be much more offensive to my sensibilities. And it is not up to me to crucify Mancow for deeds that I not only wasn't aware of, but they also did not affect me. I have no personal stake in the matter. I am not his judge.
