Kelly didn't make the best list. I'm shocked!

I'm not entirely sure what to make of her. On the one hand, she's going after Obama hard but, on the other hand, she also seems to be above-board about it. I guess that we won't know for certain (how fair and balanced that she truly is) until a Republican gets elected President and see how relentlessly that she goes after him.

Oliver North I would also put on the worst of the worst list but I'm not entirely certain if he's still on the payroll these days.

I would put Carl Cameron on the worst list, but apparently he is now on a slightly different branch of it.

Campaign Carl?

dmarks said...

Yeah, that's him. But I will take a tiny bit of time to say, that despite my disagreement with them and the quality of their journalism, I don't want to censor Fox News (or MSNBC, Democracy Now... another subject) or pressure the government to enact policies to gag and persecute them, or pressure advertisers to go away. This puts me in marked contrast to the manifold efforts by those on the Left who seek to censor/crush Fox News... and prove they know nothing about open discourse in a free society and freedom of the press.

I occasionally watch MSNBC and last night I tried to watch Rachel Maddow.....well,I made it through 10 minutes....why is that woman in constant screech mode...she is like finger nails on a blackboard.

dmarks, I agree. While I lament the emergence of this new style of advocacy journalism, I certainly don't want to muzzle these people.......Russ, 10 minutes isn't all that bad in that I can generally only handle about 90 seconds of her (and, yes, do I feel the same about Sean Hannity, too)
