So why all this animosity toward Rita? She is a darn good reporter.

She has great contacts... She's been on the air a lot these last few days.. She was on Sat a.m. before Fox and Friends... and early today and now late today.... I'm willing to cut her some slack...

During FL 2000, she misinterpreted the final Supreme Court decision after studying it for seven seconds.

Unfortunately for her, she mistakenly thought Al Gore won and the "counting" would continue, so she was immediately branded The Enemy.

Not animosity. She did blow it 2000 election night when she mis-read the Supreme's decision and thought that Gore won. Back then, someone pointed out that she resembled Polly Purebred. She took a vacation after that mistake and when she came back, never made another blunder like that. She's holding her own on Saturday nights.

By the way, did Linda Vester quit after she had her baby or is she on maternity leave? She's not on Fox during the day any more.

During the 2000 election mess, not only did Rita misunderstand the Supreme Court decision, she was thrilled & happy about it when she thought Gore won. That is why we hate her, that & the way her mouth looks trying to close over her huge teeth.

I agreee -- a bit dramatic at times, but usually spot on with info and contacts.
