hahaha, (you cracked me up) Hannity IS also on talk radio!

Did you hear, Fox tried to get Petraeus to run?
The audio has been airing here.
He was asked if Fox was doing anything wrong & was there anything HE wanted them to do...
"Fair & Balanced", what a pathetic joke, on their viewers!

Hi clo,

Agreed. I acknowledge the forces that bind. Fear being one of them.

But there are also forces that split asunder. Always are where orthodoxy stifles dissent.

Folks that fear are folks that want freedom from fear.

Seems to me the epicentre of the problem is in the Republican information complex. So that is the space to watch. Maybe Faux News will become less false one day. Or maybe some new centre-right news organisation will emerge.

Murdoch is curiously pragmatic about these things. Witness his support for a leftish party in the UK during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Losing an election will make him think a little bit.

In his shoes, I'd give voice to a thoughtful moderate Republican for an hour each night. In place of the ludicrous Hannity who belongs on talk radio. But leave Bill O in place for the right.
