The article buries the most important point at the bottom: Greta Van Susteren's ratings at Fox took off when Brown was put up against her!

"He's got a refreshing way of being the anti-anchor," he said. "He's not quote-unquote reporting at you. He's just being himself. He's asking the questions you would like answered. He's getting involved the way you might. You feel that he's a regular person that you can trust talking to you. He brings such a passion to the storytelling that's infectious."

I think this paragraph is extremely telling. Someone should tell these people it should not be storytelling. It is reporting the news.

he was hurt by a widely reported story in 2003 that he didn't cut short a golf outing to come to work on the day the Columbia space shuttle disintegrated.

That seems like it would be a mistake...

IOW yet again, FOX is number one with a boring talent before the camera because the boring talent has zero competition.

It is as if fox is the only new network in the face of the other wana-bes.

AND fox reruns their stuff at 11!
