It’s time to drop the cloak of “objective reporting” and give us the common sense view of newsworthy events. I want to hear sound, brilliant biases thriving in the heart of proud conservatives on a news channel that defies the seductive trend of liberal elitism.

Let’s see who will create a serious news channel that proudly gives the news from a conservative worldview where all reporters must be socially and fiscally conservative.

Zan and Zana, the Wonder Twins. Form of an ice sculpture...

Loved that show! But I was a Hong Kong Fooey girl, myself...

Hannity and Greta are all I watch on there any more. They are basically unwatchable.

We need to all just quit watching Fox, along with the networks. Believe me, you can be just as informed, even better informed, without television news and newspapers. Use internet access.

I watch less and less of Fox anyway. There are a few bright spots on the network - Neil Cavuto and that morning crew. I stopped watching that gang that's on with Brit Hume because, except for Krauthammer, they're all moderate-liberal anyway. Even Brit has lost his touch these last few months.

There are some on the network that induce immediate channel-changing. O'Reilly is, and has been, a statist buffoon that thinks that more laws and more regulation are the answers to non-existant problems. Schwepp Smith is just plain liberal, and a whiney crybaby as well. He sealed his fate when he stood on that bridge post-Katrina begging for tax dollars from the fed to give to the deadbeats in NO who were dumb enough to elect an inept Mayor.

i wish obama and michelle had turned in to some things incapable of “ruling” America when they fist bumped! blunder twins activate!! oh well, i can dream......

In general, I liked ED Hill. Much of her reporting was very common sense....except for the fact that she seemed to support Planned “Parenthood.”

I already have. Sad, but it is long past time for Conservatives to abandon all illusions of Media Sympathy.

The Progressive Business advertisers are not going to allow for Fair and Balanced, as anyone who watched Fox and their plain lousy coverage of this past election can see. They were "Conservative" the way Huntley and Brinkley were "neutral. Neutrality is an illusion, and I'm not going to be satisfied with the crumbs from the Liberal Table. Sorry.

I've never been exactly a fan of ED, but she's being persecuted, and that's crap.

She said something long time ago, and it was akin to calling Obama a terrorist. I thought they fired her,why is it news now? Michelle Malkin called Michelle Obama a baby’s mama,she’s not around either. I didn’t like either of them-too harsh.

[LottieDah]

“call fox and protest.”

What would be the point? They are already moving toward the dark side.

[Canedawg]

LOL

well done.

[romanesq]

Why protest. What she said about the fist bump is utterly retarded.
And she really didn’t communicate much depth on other matters either.

She had a good run. Good for her.

[CaptainK]

There is a market for a true conservative news network. Why isn’t some smart business person filling the void?

[dforest]

Malkin is very much around. I see her on Fox all the time. She is NOT too harsh, she is a conservative.

[sport]

Wait until they are turned loose with the orce of law behind them.

[MilspecRob]

It was a dumb comment to make IMHO

[xkaydet65]

Fox is pandering, but E.D was in another world when she used the word terrorist. The fist bump has been a signature form of street bravado for at least ten years. On the BB court, in rap videos, in school hallways during passing it is a common form of body language. The modern day high five. The problem with the Obamas is that they are wayyy to old to be using it. Whether Obama admits it or not, he is the last birth cohort of the baby boom, even though his parents don't qualify. Kids I've spoken to in class, whio supported him universally, thought the fist bump a silly effort to be something he's, in their eyes, not. Young.

E.D. should have known better before making her reference.

Yet it’s perfectly fine for two of FNCs girlie-men to air shrill ad hominem, unfounded, anonymous smears against Gov. Palin.

[alrea]

Hannity is next. They’re likely waiting on him to use some mildly politically incorrect statement that 1 person in 1,000 deems hate speech and he’s out.

He is skating on thin ice.
