It was objective and complimentary.

But, it isn't the news side of Fox that is so hideous -- it's their pundits. I really don't care was Hannity and the rest think about any issue.

Having said that I cannot imagine anyone ignoring the Rosalynn Carter story. Such an inspiration to everyone regardless of party.

Said she shouldn’t be sitting in on Cabinet meetings and putting her two cents in on everything that wasn’t her business because she wasn’t elected, her husband was. And any RWer will parrot that Carter was the WORST president in the history of our country. It pains me when they say that because he is more Christian in word and deed than any of the fake Christians they love so much.

And they are mispronouncing her first name …


I’ve always heard it as ‘Roz a lyn’ not ‘Rose a Lynn’ but that’s how they are saying it … ‘Rose a Lynn’

Makes me sick the weather channel is only two digits away, always afraid some of that cancer will spill out if I check the weather forecast. And all the many dozens of Jesus channels on Satellite not mentioning a word about the lose of a great example of following that doctrine that Mrs Carter lived daily.
But love em some St Trump examples of Jeses teachings.

and they were very respectful and kind. Had lots of photos and Jimmy's statement on her passing. They brought on their media guy and he had quite a big piece and all of it was what I would expect to see on a non-faux site. Today they're probably back to being assholes.

I’m not Fox-phobic. I’ll look in if it seems interesting to know what they’re doing. I’m glad they didn’t have a graceless take on a gracious lady. I wouldn’t think they would.

I think it's important to 'keep an eye on the enemy', so to speak. I didn't think they'd do anything overtly crass or rude, but some of their weekend 'news' people were on as the barking mad morning crew were done for the day. That's my 30 minutes for this week
