That would depend on what profession they were dressing for. Being a female talking head on Fox News is not a lot different than turning tricks on the street when you really get down to basics. The whole Fox News schtick was about putting attractive women on the air, tarting them up, dumbing them down and maximizing their appeal to an audience comprised mainly of 60+ year old men, many probably watching with only one free hand.


Fox News is the network for creepy old men, designed and ran by even creepier old men.

Furthermore, Kelly outright lied like the skank she is when she said, "You have called women..." That's women as in plural. Rosie O'Donnell, fat and ugly as she is, is just ONE female.
Newsflash: Trump is not even a conservative. A paleo-con on two issues and pretty much a moderate Democrat on most others.

Ah guess the only news you watch is Fox then huh because every other news station - be it local or cable only has good looking women on - even 1 America. Check some of the overseas networks - same deal - only good looking women. Your bias is showing.

So, it is OK for the President of the United states, Bill Clinton BUT, it is NOT OK from FOX.

I think I see some hypocrisy and bias.

WOW, 2 stories and women are "flocking to leave"

Exaggerate much?

That was payback towards the loony left when they incorrectly said the repubs had a war on women.

The point was about degrading a woman, not the exact words. Which hypocritically enough is sexist in itself. Anyone who follows Trump knows he goes after anyone. The sex of the individual doesn't matter.

It's pretty much Trump's go-to network, and they certainly accommodate him on a daily basis.

"...Donald Trump has appeared on Fox News more than twice as much as anyone else in the Republican field..."

Trump has double Fox News airtime of other GOP candidates - Business Insider
