error. While I don't for a second believe that what is broadcast on programs
such as The Factor, Glenn Beck's show, or Hannity qualifies as news, I don't
believe that the brass at FOX would try and have you buy it either. On the other
hand segments such as News Watch, Fox News Weekend, America's Newsroom, and Fox
Report with Shepard Smith are as objective as anything on broadcast television.
I also believe that On the Record with Greta Van Sustren (no conservative, her)
and Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace does a good job of delivering objective
information with balanced analysis. Dismissing FOX because you disagree with a
few of their talking heads is as silly as a conservative rejecting everything
reported in the NYT because of its demonstrated editorial slant. If there is a
news source that brings absolutely no baggage to its reporting I'd love to hear
about it.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Hey, if Olbermann knowingly violated his employers' policies, he
got what he ought to have gotten. No scandal there.<BR><BR>But the
question of Fox News being "fair and balanced" obscures the real point,
which is whether or not Fox News is really "news." I don't think we need
to have the lexicography battle that we've been having over "to bear," but no
one who's ever produced, studied, or benefited from real journalism -- real news
gathering and news reporting -- would seriously suggest that Fox is "news" in
any way, shape, or form. <BR><BR>Fox News is nothing more than "Open Mic
Night" in a room full of culturally insecure, frightened and naive Christian
conservatives trying to earn the respect of the swaggering rich, important guys
across the bar. The rich guys drink better beer and drive more expensive
cars, but the Religious Right has some really attractive sisters they bring to
the ball, and that makes everyone in the room fast friends -- to the enrichment
of the guys operating the microphone.<BR><BR><FONT color=#8064a2><FONT

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Calibri>Anybody care to speculate on how
long it takes for unceremoniously sacked MSNBC hack, Keith
Olbermann to swallow what little pride he may have left and accept
a position along side Alan Colmes, Mara Liasson, Juan Williams, Bob
Beckel, Kirsten Powers, Susan Estrich, Tammy Bruce, Pat Caddell, etc. over
at what appears to be the only fair and balance news source, FOX? The idea
of watching him on Sean Hannity's show makes me laugh just thinking about
it.</FONT></DIV>
