KDFW in Dallas is Fox Owned and Operated. They do something like 7-8 hours of live local news every weekday.

Because Fox is relatively new and conservative, their network and station ad rates are less than their competitors. This is changing, gradually, and in time will allow for more and better news programming.

Fox in Oklahoma City is one of the main reasons we got stuck with our Democrat governor. One of their liberal anchorman (Speeno?), pissed off the Republican candidate so badly that he cussed him out during a taped interview. Largent actually used the phrase "Bull s***!" to describe the line of questioning, a phrase that apparently none of my fellow Oklahomans had ever heard before. The interviewer's question was along the lines of "Why were you bird hunting in Idaho on 9-11?" Apparently, Largent had played hooky from the hill that day to do some hunting. I agree that he should be at work, but I don't know too many people that haven't taken a day off for a fishing trip or hunting trip in Oklahoma.

That one interview is why I stopped watching local Fox news. The local CBS affiliate is actually more conservative than local Fox. How bizarre is that?

That sounds like KOKH/KOCB, Fox 25, which is owned by Sinclair Broadcasting. You might want to write telling of your views. The CEO would probably be the best one to address.

>>>Fox News Network and the Fox Television Network are two entirely different entitities.

Both are owned and operated by NewsCorp. Running local news would be the local affiliates decision. And FWIW, it ain't cheap to do. The affiliates to the entertainment network can make more money by not doing a lot of news...

I too wish we had Fox and Friends on tape delay. They repeat all of the other shows later, but not that one.
As for local news, doesn't you regular Fox channel have it? Ours does.

Maypo! I loved those ads when I was a kid! Too bad they don't make 'em like that anymore.

Yeah sure, OK that.... And they could get rid of Colmbes, Gretta and Geraldo while they're at it.
