5. Kick!
This should also be in General Discussion as it relates to the media.

Hope someone at Mediawhores.com sees this, too.

6. Covert message...? A warning...?

7. Thanks for --
-- posting this. I didn't see it at all & appreciate the alert.

If Fox News isn't careful, the Democratic replacement for George W. Bush will arrest the entire Fox network under the Sedition Act.

8. His "My Word" segment is his 2 minutes to editorialize
Don't fool yourself into thinking that any news anchor doesn't have their own opinions and wouldn't love to share them whenever possible.
:eyes:

12. true
but I think this one really crosses the line because he isn't really offering a personal opinion, just a warning or a means to alarm the audience:

"He could be the next President if you're not careful."

But yeah, all of Faux's newscasters morph into pundits even on topics they only have limited knowledge of.
