Fox doesn't have a lot of room to complain about other people doing softball interviews, they're very good at it themselves lately.

Fox...doing softball interviews...they're very good at it themselves lately.

I saw an afternoon anchor do an excellent interview yesterday; asked a Muslim leader some questions that I'd never seen anyone have the gumption to ask before. His name is "Bob," came on before Shep at 3:00. His guests were a Muslim leader, Eric Vickers or Victor, I think the name was, and Mansoor Ijaz. When Vickers kept saying that mdoerate Muslims do not reflect violence, he asked why we weren't hearing from the leaders. Vickers said we were. When Bob said he wasn't hearing them and Vickers said he wasn't listening then, he went to Ijaz, who said that the excellent speech by the president yesterday in the Islamic Center, which should have been made by a Muslim, really made him the leading spokesperson for peaceful Islam in America today. Vickers was clearly going crazy, but Bob was done with him. While I would have liked to see the interview proceed differently than it did, he asked the hard questions and would not allow his guest to bully him. FNC needs to give this young man more air time. He's got a future!
