I.M. Right
I can think of four (or eight depending on your view) good reasons why that video "the Women of Fox" was just so delightful!
Four words to describe the vid: Homina homina homina homina!
Thanks J$ for the link, and thank you to whomever posted that vid on YouTube!

Re: "Craig Crawford quits MSNBC, on F&F Monday": In professional wrestling terms, I consider this a face (good guy) turn.

The "More" link in place of "on F&F Monday" shows that Craig will not be on F&F, at least according to FNC. So, he took his link down. Before another network picks him up, I hope to see him on "The Factor" sometime.

I am having a hard time remembering Chris Matthews calling Crawford a racist. Did it make any waves on the blogs at the time? Any cool video links to refresh our memory Johnny? And how long before Crawford is Olbermann's WPITW!!! Happy friday!!

I just added a 'more' link that will answer that question.

There's a classic "Fox response" to CNN in that Jon Klein interview.

And the "response" was: "We don't respond to presidents of fifth-place news networks. The last time we looked, Jon was losing to the Weather Channel, so call us back when he and CNN regain relevancy."
That wasn't a real FNC spokesperson, was it?

I suspect it was.

In that case, why is it that the anonymous spokespeople always throw the biggest bombs? That goes for any channel or corporation.

I always liked Crawford when I had a chance to see him. He was keft but not wacko left.
Pretty soon all MSNBC will have is Olbermann and Maddow smooching each
other. Oh, wait. Nevermind.

Ingraham, Coulter, Palin & Malkin all pass the important left wing conservative women hate meter. They pass with flying colors as KO & NHounds can't stand them. The more these morons whine about them, the more they are elevated. As an example Laura was a special guest on the Today Show this morning with Matt Lauer & Harold Ford Jr. A real hotbed of conservative ideology! She was wearing her gold cross as well, sorry NH's you can't rip it off!

You wanna read some real hot comments, go to KO's blog entry about Simmons and then read the reactions from the baseball commenters. Wow!

I've read the comments at Olbermann MLB blog. The comment from Rebecca Lobo's lawyer is dead on accurate about Olbermann...

Johnny, I watched the car chase segment from the local Fox affiliate from Detroit yesterday on one of the day shows. The local reporter voiceover said it was rush hour on the Interstate yet the traffic was lighter than most highways at midnight in any urban area.
I know Detroit has fallen on very hard times but are things that bad?
BTW, the neighbors/witnesses that were interviewed were the best I've seen on TV. They really told it like it is.
Thanks.
