"Newsmax's consistently strong numbers during the day and especially at the 7 p.m. ET slot has caused panic at Fox, which rarely makes lineup changes," Newsmax said in a statement Monday, adding with a wink, "The Fox is on the run."

Bring back Brit Hume and let him Special Report at 6PM AND do FOX NEWS Sunday!

Brit used to both shows, and was famous for slappin’ Juan Williams right out of his chair when he started spouting nonsense.

“Just a reminder to all: Newsmax is an online only streaming service.”

Newsmax is on Uverse Channel 1220 in the Atlanta area.

“In the old days, I liked MacCallum a lot.”

How do you think Comcrap gets the Newsmax feed to put on your cable tv box?

How do you think UVerse gets Newsmax? (hint: Newsmax is not a broadcast TV station.)
