So people with whose political views you disagree (even strongly) should never be employed anywhere that their opinion is voiced?  My, aren't we the advocates of free speech...

He's a CONTRIBUTOR.  He's not a reporter, he's not called in for an objective assessment of the facts.  Everyone knows who he is, and his opinion, like Sean Hannity's or any other contributor's, like an editorial writer for a newspaper, is colored with his individual biases.


Makes for a great one-liner, though, don't it?

You remember incorrectly.

The first 3 are on Fox News in various capacities (the first two solely as commentators, and the third used to have a show in the afternoons, now replaced with election coverage) and have their radio shows through Fox News Radio (though technically a separate entity).

Rush Limbaugh has probably been a guest on Fox News a tiny handful of times and his radio show is through Clear Channel, and Michael Savage... I don't even know if that idiot even has a radio show anymore, but certainly nothing on Fox.  I haven't even seen him appear on the station as a guest in a long while.

I wasn't meaning to say NONE of them are on Fox News, just that a couple of the major (and most egregious of the clips taken) are not.


(And FYI, Fox & Friends is the network's morning show, and I don't know that ANY of those people have EVER appeared on that at 3AM Pacific...)


Interestingly enough, O'Reilly and Hannity have their respective radio shows carried on KABC.

I'll be the first to admit I'm liberal and I may see things with biased eyes but...
Conservative talking heads (Hannity, Coulter, etc.) seem a lot louder than liberal talking heads. If you ask me who a liberal talking head, you know who first comes to mind? Jon Stewart. What's wrong with that? Hannity's on a News network. Stewart's on COMEDY CENTRAL.

Plus the conservative talking heads seem a lot more hostile and angry than what I've seen from the liberal side.

Bill O'Reilly wrote a really flattering article on Obama.  Seems to praise him.

Where? I'd like to read it. But if he wrote anything positive about Obama, then I think that is an actual sign of the apocalypse.
