Graham is an idiot. I hope he keeps it up, actually. The majority of the public is not going to go for that kind of talk.

I just sent another email to Fox telling them that there is really no need to watch them anymore since they sound no different than CNN. I told them to have fun watching their ratings fall. I am so disgusted.

That's what I thought -- couldn't figure out Snow's remark from the speech I heard. It was a direct slam at GW or at least that is how I took it!

I don't see this as "blood in the water", although Dems sure are sharks! It still seems like yet another temporary "issue" similar to all the others we've seen from them. Some of those past contrived "scandals" looked rather ominous for a while, too, like Enron. And the election is a long ways off. But I don't think we can count on Fox any more as a refuge from all the bias.

A little to the left? During the day I would say it is a lot left! Fair and balanced is gone!

Why does estrich keep pretending this speech never happened and talking about the emocratic primaries?!!

The Democrats, in order to stay on their only message, have to ignore all else and pretend it doesn't exist. In that way they will try- and knowing the media, probably succeed, in keeping the news media focused on the irelevent. Blair's speech will be erased by their constant harping.

And Fox is going right along with all the other media on this because they are too lazy to do research and thus are wide open to reading all that junk the DNC keeps sending them from unnamed sources as 'fact.' That's why all we get from the media, Fox or otherwise, is Laci Perterson, car chases, and democrat spin. It's easy for them and they can fill hour after hour with this immaterial tripe and hearsay much cheaper than if they sent actual correspondents overseas or paid people to conduct journalistic investigations.

Most of what the press reports on doesn't rise to the level of what would be appropriate for national news. It's trivia.

I thought Snow should know it as well but he obviously was trying to make a remark about Blair's remark and he blew it!

But then he asked the dumbest questions to Sen Warner on Saturday after the Reagan dedication too! Warner blew him out of the water.

Write Roger Ailes at: roger.ailes@foxnews.com

If you have a problem with a reporter based in D.C., write the D.C. Bureau Chief as well: kim.hume@foxnews.com

Ailes is in charge of things. People aren't perfect; he may simply be missing the bias (I don't have Fox News, so I can't make a judgment whether it is true or not).

We need to let him know.......and LOTS of us. So let's flood his e-mail box if you believe Fox to be turning more leftward.

I am not going to automatically assume there is some conspiracy over there to turn to the left. It could just be that it has been overlooked. Maybe not though.

I immediately 'muted' the talking heads...(& tried hard not to even look at Estrich, UGH!)...

...and put on this new CD I just bought, oh so romantic...Josh Groban....(he sings Italian arias & the music from Cirque du Soleil & a beautiful duet with Charlotte Church)..

...and am happily waiting for the news conference :))

I am peaceful :)

The Bush Doctrine has now become the Bush-Blair Doctrine!

The message was given to Europe, you still have a chance to be with us. The House of Saud know where they stand now, and should be making plans to use all of their Swiss bank holdings. The ruling Imams in Iran should should be checking their watches, for the time is near! Syria will have to fall in line.

It is sad commentary, when a leader from another country thinks more of us and our policies, then the democrat party.(this should be in the RNC's talking points)

He definitely messed up if he thought Tony got the Congressional Medal of Honor.

I agree with that! Especially during the daytime hours! It has gotten really bad as the Fox anchors push this Niger story against the President!

I have the mute button on more often than not lately!

I progressed to the "power off" button long ago, even in the evening. I wonder when Fox will start feeling the drop in ratings? Lately, it's been a cross between The National Enquirer, Playboy and the London Daily Telegraph.

The other day, the FNC morning crew was gloating abuot a Pew Report that said that 1 out of 5 Americans get their news from Fox. I guess they'd rather have the other 80%, but they won't keep me, or my family. There's always the internet, where you can find two sides to every aspect of any story, and make your own decisions.
