After watching Sean Hannity's interview with Sarah Palin, I can fully understand why she terrifies you and your ilk. You're simply not used to honesty, and honesty can be frightening to those who do not expound the truth.

While so many people criticize FOX news it it still the most watched news network and their ratings continue to rise.

If Democrats start to shun away from going on Fox news and watching it of course it will beem more conservative. Democrats should want to go onto Fox news and take on the challenge of speaking to Republicans.

MSM = comic relief. Curic just won the Murrow award for the 2nd year in a row. I miss the days when these prestigious awards went to people or groups who created or accomplished acts that were of great benefit to mankind.

I checked out CNN, MSNBC and such,but found I kept ending up on FOX.I found it more informative. They tend to ask the ?'s I would ask if I could and they don't talk down to the viewer. This is much better than the "talking heads" you get on the other networks. I prefer to know all sides of an issue so I can make an informed opinion.

The breakdown of FOX viewers is almost equally devided among Ind.,Repub.and Dems., unlike any of the others. I think the WH is being rather foolish in the way they handle FOX. Although I must also say that they didn't help their cause any when they did appear on FOX. That was mostly because of the way the presented themselves. Instead of answering ?'s or even staying on topic they usually just spouted the party's rhetoric.

I can only expect that assessment from one with such a handle.

You would have list of reason if God himself came down to earth and was interviewed only on Fox. And the rapture is he receives only watches Fox.

Lucky for Fox vast number of people enjoy Fox news despite your assessment.

Is true appearance is factor in hired help:

“And that's the way it is.”

For a long, long, time. Not just since Fox news. And not just in news.

Anyone ever notice that the women experts that Fox puts on are always not only well qualified (got her JD, got her MD, etcetera), but they are always attractive on camera, too?

What Fox is doing is really countering the typical Hollywood stereotype of pretty women being dumb. I've no idea if this is intentional, or just that Fox things attractive and smart women experts gains viewers more than unattractive ones.

In any event, it seems to be turning the stereotype of pretty = dumb and vain on its head.

I have heard many women whine about how Fox puts--and then they start to try to say something along the lines of "not too...br...eh...well.."--and then they have to stop, because Ms. Pirro is clearly a brain, as is Ms. JD/MD/PHD.

I have no idea what angle Fox is working with that, the "sex appeal sells" angle, or the intent to counter negative stereotypes, but it seems awfully hilarious whenever I've watched other females (the poster is female, by the way) try like heck to bash Fox News Channel about the "hot" female experts.

Each and every time, it starts out as an attempted criticism, then ends with a well, never mind (because you can't claim a JD or MD knows nothing except how to put on makeup).

Interesting observation about Fox.

So yeah, any female candidate, of whatever party, would be wise to try to get on the FNC. Just be sure you can pass the looks test. LOL

I don't waste my time with CNN or NBC on cable. They're boring and they're too liberal.

Sean Serritella of NJ 9:30PM October 30, 2009

That is truly painful! Hard to imagine a more ineffective representative of the Democratic Party. She makes ex-president Bush sound articulate. This is really a worthless editorial opinion. I wished I had watched her video clips before commenting on the story. I can understand why Fox News would have her on again and again. Makes Democrats sound like idiots.
