Rumor of FNC Big Name Leaving?

Media Bistro ^

[Republican Red]

> "Here at FNC there are rumors about a big name leaving us," an e-mailer said yesterday. "No name was given." Is that person serious?...

[bonfire]

He looks that way to me too. Actually, I kind of like Alan....he's not bad for a lib.

[Crimson Elephant]

I would prefer Bill O Reilly leave, go to MSNBC where they count on him to deliver the ratings....Fox gives his spot to Joe Scarborough and then Joe S gets OReilley's ratings and O'Reilly gets Joe's ratings.

[Gypssy]

I hope Bill O'Reilly. I cannot listen to that man. He is so fun of himself. Anyway, my 2 cents worth.

Ok, full of himself too. From those phone calls to that producer, fun of himself sounds about right too!

[bandleader]

Hopefully,it will be greta or Shep.

[Ragnorak]

I haven't watched a second of O'Reilly in well over a year. I can deal with everything but this bogus worshiping at the open-minded centrist altar.

Thank you for letting me know what I'm missing. I'll be sure to not tune in for the rest of my life.

I would have bet Juan only he is not a big name. Maybe Rita or Greta for having the dummy Justin the Ex-Juror on the show even after the Peterson verdict.

[AFreeBird]

I don't care who it is as long as Kiran Chetry gets more air time.

hubba hubba

[Sender]

No, you guys WISH. It's Kiran Chetry and she's leaving to be my handmaiden.

[maxter]

I hope it it not Cavuto.

[verity]

You'll be pissed if Juan shows up! :~)

[oceanview]

and the problem with that is?

[ronjon]

Speaking of Shepard Smith:

Can anyone tell me what is behind the name of the show "The G BLOCK"???

I've never seen anyone on FOX explain that name!

[SuziQ]

Gretta? You mean we won't have [the local story, made national, about] Scott Peterson to kick around any more? A tragedy. A true tragedy.

No worries; that story has been quickly supplanted by the Robert Blake murder case.

[PilloryHillary]

Maybe Whoraldo is leaving? I'd miss him. He's entertaining. Personally, I hope it's O'reilly.

[Phantom Lord]

No I won't. I have alwas wanted to smack him. Will provide ample opportunity!

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

I would guess FOX News knows Brit has a following which will follow him whereever he goes.

Steve Doocey is gone this week and was gone for a few days last week. He is my favorite of the morning crew. God I hope it is not him.

1)Greta vanCelebrityMurderTrial

2)Geraldo LetMeDrawYouaMapinTheSand Rivera

3)Alan Colmes - retires to become Official Michael Moore Roadie

4)Juan PrimalLeftyScream Williams -- Oh, right, they said a BIG name

5)Uma Pemmerabalulu - because no one can pronouce her name

Can anyone tell me what is behind the name of the show "The G BLOCK"???

After years of getting asked this question, Fox News finally explained it a few months ago.

The news shows are broken up into "blocks". The opening segment is the A Block. Next segment is the B Block. And so on. Internal conversations use the internal lingo when talking about segments. And on time on air Shep screwed up and referred to the upcoming segment by its internal name, The G Block. And the name stuck.

[bonfire]

Someone told me that each day is is separated into "blocks", starting with A. Shepard gets the "G" segment.

Let it be Juliet Hutty or Kiran Chetry come to be my cuddle bunny
