Fox news?

One of the many reasons I don't watch fox news anymore.

Is it really news worthy to talk about someones beard? Really?

GIORDANO: I didn't know that he was Hispan -- he doesn't appear to me -- I mean, I know that he is, over the years --

[crosstalk]

SHORENSTEIN: What are you talking about? He doesn't need a beard to look Hispanic.

JENKINS: He just likes the beard.

PIRRO: He looks more Hispanic.

JENKINS: So what do you think?

GIORDANO: Well, OK, he does look more Hispanic.

Sorry I am now wasting your time viewing this, but had to rant.

Was it a news show or an op-ed show?

It was Fox News. Is there a difference?

Very much so... people are just so up in arms because Fox op-ed shows are mostly republican friendly... just like CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC and many others op-ed pieces are democrat friendly

I believe that deserves the understatement of the year award ! !

It does not bother me so much that Fox takes the conservative view on their broadcasts, mostly because I am a conservative . . by the conventional meaning . . not the current self righteous, religious radical meaning . . but I don't understand their need to demonize anyone who has a different opinion than they do.
