I'll watch Larry King on CNN rather than Greta. Or I'll turn off the TV and read a book. I have the 2002 Almanac of Politics. It is quite long, so I'll have lots of fun with unbiased info instead of liberal pap.

Seriously? You think Rita Cosby is liberal? I am rather surprised by that notion. I think she is definitely right of center. I have seen many interviews where she dismantled liberal guests. Well, how about if Fox just hires Ann Coulter as a full-time correspondent? That should balance out the liberals.
To: flamefront
Appears that Fox is into a serious bait-and-switch mode this past month with us loyal viewers.
Flamefront, your post at #66 was the most on-the-mark as well as the scariest. Even more trials and tribunals will follow Walker's, and Greta will be putting her liberal spin on each. She will NOT change her spots, and anyone who thinks this is dreaming.
Well, I don't watch Fox or any other talk shows very much anymore. I've had it with the shouting and screaming and the mind-boggling hysterical pace of these shows innundating us with nothing more than frantic sound-bites. Not to mention hosts constantly interupting guests, and the relentless presence of the various freaks that pass for pundits these days.
I find more cogency, peace and tranquility here at FR during prime time (well, most of the time, anyway, hehee!)

Who next? Well, they haven't really hit the bottom of the sewer yet....they could go after Carvile, Begala, Lanny Davis, Rahm Emanuel, John Podesta, or maybe Georrge Stephanopoulous (however its spelled), DeeDeeMeyers, Al Sharpton, or how about the ever lovely LIPS--Chelsea Clinton!!! All the fellas who LOVE lips could have a lifetimes' worth!! :)
Hmmmmm.....wonder if ol Roger thinks he can top the station that just paid Miss Katie a whopper of a contract--he could bring her on.....
Imagine that lineup of mouths! Katie - Estrich - Greta - Chelsea!
Sorry, I forgot the "BARF" alert.

Maybe Alan Colmes and Greta Van Sustren can do a show together? Ugh, could anyone bear to watch those two at the same time.
To: Fred Mertz
Notice that she looks like David Kendall...same crooked teeth and crooked smile...to go along with their crooked view of the law?
To: Rowdee
No doubt Greta is a liberal, the question is what FOX is becoming. Perhaps fairly unbalanced?
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
I am losing faith in O'Reilly!
Didn't agree with him when he talked with Falwell!
I absolutely loved how he went right at Falwell! Usually Bill will annoy me with his attitude with guests. I like how he went after Jerry, taking issue with the very UN-Christian attitude of damning "non-believers" to hell. I cannot stand the bigotry and close-mindedness of that particular belief that everyone's damned if they don't march to the same orders as they do. That's as ignorant as Fundamentalist Islam.
To: Patriot1
Hey, let's look at the bright side. Maybe, just maybe, more liberals will start watching FNC. Then, they will see the fundamental flaws of their own idealogy and start jumping ship to the RIGHT side of politics.
To: KC_Conspirator
Since when? I notice the difference between when they have a guest, and when they label the guest as a "Fox News Contributor," like they did with Gingrich and D'Amato when they first appeared after leaving office. Several months ago when he first started appearing, Richardson was being introduced as a new "contributor." They may not do that now, but they did when he first started appearing.
He wasn't being asked to defend his record, but was only being asked to comment on the news of the day. This is what I find appalling about what some people refer to as "the government/media complex." Having Richardson on the air and then not grilling him about his role in the Wen Ho Lee nuclear secrets fiasco, his subsequent denial that nuclear secrets were stolen during the Clinton administration, his promise to make changes at the labs, then the Los Alamos missing hard drives, not to mention his role in driving Lewinsky to New York for Revlon job interviews -- basically pretending none of this happened and that he was not a high-ranking Cabinet official overseeing the loss of top secret documents -- was too much for me to stomach.

Maybe Alan Colmes and Greta Van Sustren can do a show together? I've got the name for the show: "Dumb and Dumber". They could report and we could decide each night which one was which at the end of the show by call-in voting (which one was Dumber? For Alan dial ... for Greta dial ...).
To: Silly
So the highest rated CNN show was Greta? I thought her shows were awfully boring.
I don't think there is enough super moist lipstick to bring her up to FOX standards.

"Isn't she the liberal Scientologist? Yes!
Which poses a question. Where does Scientology place on the American political spectrum?
If one is a Scientologist, are they inclined to be liberal?

What is going on with FOX? The reason CNN is failing is just because of people like Greta.Perhaps it's an even-up trade for Paula Zahn. But that's not my problem with FOX. They've had a rocky transition from being a scandal-driven network to a hard news-based (and international based) network which seems to turn the news division lights off on weekends. Hiring another talking head rather than building up their domestic and international news staff isn't all that smart of a move.

This gives laundering a new meaning, i.e., cleaning the corrupt reputations of ex-dirty politicians. He'll be pure enough to run for President in the next election cycle.
