Exposed to a constant flow of truth, leftists on FoxNews sometimes cross over after a number of years.

I remember FReepers telling me that FoxNews sold out to the Saudis, or Hillary. Does anyone still stink that?

It's more that there's a Saudi prince who owns a large block of stock in Fox's parent company, and who is needed to prevent hostile takeovers. They need to keep him happy.

I am only angry at Fox News for selling out Hayworth to boost McCain. The Saudi control thingy is crap....they own a small fraction of Fox, nothing more.

Thanks Arthur Wildfire! March, it’s easy to forget that the talking heads in the media are part of the entertainment industry. :’)

If it were the Saudis, why would Obama be attacking Fox personally and through proxies in and out of his stable of partisan media shills? Nope, we're faced with the real possibility that Fox reports and lets us decide; and it doesn't have a deathgrip on the idealogy of its pundits. And that's just what we should want in the fourth estate. When a journalist only takes an adversarial position versus members of the Republican Party, then he or she is not a journalist at all, but a partisan media shill.

Were that not the case, Juan Williams wouldn't have been fired by NPR, he would have been fired (and long ago) by Fox instead.
