Why will you not say your wrong?

Does FOX do that, too? I'm asking because, not being a viewer, I really don't know. And I'm not talking about the occasional guest but real, left-leaning, regular contributors? You know, so they can call themselves "fair and balanced" and not have it be a lie?
Actually, they do. Non-conservative hosts or frequent guests on Fox News...

- Juan Williams
- Geraldo
- Susan Estrich
- Harold Ford Jr.
- Alan Colmes
- Lis Wiehl
- Bob Beckel
- Ellen Ratner
- Ellis Henican
- Mara Liasson

I had forgotten about Mara Liasson and Juan Williams; I used to watch Fox Sunday (or whatever it's called) before I moved up here and didn't get t.v. reception anymore. I'm not sure, though, but does Juan Williams even qualify as NOT a conservative anymore?

Geraldo Rivera's a liberal?

Alan Colmes - I'm vaguely familiar with him but I'm not sure why- maybe from the radio?

I've heard of a few of the other names but there are some there that I'm not familiar with at all.

Yes, FOX News did cover it quite thoroughly as a matter of fact and early on at that. I have heard that liberals have a difficult time hearing the truth and would rather have hot pointy objects shoved under their fingernails than to hear it though. Thanks for confirming.

You left out Charlie Rangel, Ben Stein, Dr. Mark LaMont Hill, and more whose name's escape me at the moment.

Thanks for the additional names. I'll add them to my list for future reference.

How funny that so many Americans would trust a "news" organization owned by a Saudi and an Australian. Go figure.
