Funny thing is, I had a few Lib friends who enjoyed her show. They felt she was fair and balanced, as FoxNews used to say. I never watched her on PMSNBC, so I cannot comment on the slant of her show over there. But apparently she was somewhat middle-of-the-road and Lefties thought she was giving the Conservative point of view.
I've often said that the truth looks like right-wing extremism to a lefty.
