So now every non-lefty person in media is going to be pushed to Fox, where they can easily be discredited and diminished? Wonderful.

Well, MSNBC (PMS-NBC) has decided to to full-on lefty...are they discredited?

The leftward tilt in practically every other print/electronic outlet was taken for granted...were they discredited?

I disagree. Stossel is great at providing intellectual ammunition for conservatives.

Beck, et al at Fox, have great instincts. But there is a perception that in general they doesn't go intellectually deep enough into their subjects. They're "big picture" types. That's not enough for some people. Stossel will help Fox by shoring up the intellectual foundation for its conservatism. He'll dig a little deeper.

The other choice is that they go away completely.

It’s less and less the case. The left can call Fox anything it wants, but if that’s where the news is, eventually people are going to go there.

ACORN as financier and business consultant to prostitution rings? Not going to find that on ABC.

Ratings talk and BS walks anyway. I doubt they’ll fill Stossel’s vacancy, because frankly he was an investigative journalist in an organization that doesn’t do that any more.
