1. Nancy: In its reporting and discussion of the withdrawal of Harriet Mier's nomination to the Supreme Court, Fox News Live again failed to live up to their own tagline of "fair and balanced." FNL solicited
opinions and analysis overwhelmingly from GOPs, and showed clips of a number of Senators(all GOPs) making statements about the situation. The only topic deemed worthy enough to interrupt the Miers-fest was the arrival of GWBush (GOP) in Florida to "tour" the damage caused by Hurricane Wilma with his brother Jeb(GOP).

Donna: This week while most of the 24 hour networks focused on traitorgate, the leaking of CIA covert agent, Valerie Plame, Fox produced spotty coverage. When they did cover it they went back to old talking points to prove their point.

Ellen: Charles Rangel consistently proves that savvy Democrats can do well on Hannity & Colmes. Last week, he concisely explained the broader implications of the CIA Leak investigation, nimbly sidestepped Sean Hannity's diversionary Clinton-bashing and even managed to joke with Hannity about it. For that reason, Rangel is one of our top dogs. http://www.newshounds.us/2005/10/28/charles_rangel_is_a_top_dog.php 6. Janie: Wednesday on Dayside, prior to the announcement of the Libby indictment , hosts Juliet Huddy and Mike Jerrick brought their colleague Brit Hume onto the show to give his take on the Valarie Plame case. While he started out giving a very fair assessment of the situation, he gradually deteriorated into the typical right-wing talking point of "Joe Wilson's a liar".

Judy: Charles Payne, appearing on Fox News'"Bulls and Bears," wins the boobie prize for most ridiculous effort to spin the Lewis Libby indictments in George Bush's favor for saying, "I mean this is incredible news. ... It was fantastic.... This was a huge week for him (Bush). Perhaps the biggest week for him since the election."
