mike, you are embarrassing yourself, again. Krauthammer is a joke, and Kristol has to be the dumbest and most hateful "analyst" to ever grace the airwaves. Juan is fine, and he occasionally does attempt to counter the ridiculous arguments of the rest of the panel on whatever show they are on, but he gets steamrolled repeatedly and unrepentedly, and you can tell he has a defeatist whenever Kristol looks at him with that dumb grin and says some absolutely insane thing that the rest of the panel agrees on, because its FOX. (My personal belief is that Juan Williams has a victim's complex. He gets some kiind of visceral thrill out of being shouted down and humiliated by absolute idiots). Mara is a joke, and she regularly just tows the FOX party line.

So, in summary, the most ardent hard-righter would watch CNN, MSNBC, PBS, or even the Daily Show if he wanted to be informed about politics, before he would watch FOX. If he wants to be entertained, on the other hand, FOX is always available.

Shocking you disagree. ;-)

Again, however, you miss the point. The analysts fox have, no matter if you think they are skewed, are diverse, more intelligent, and have more thoughtful analysis.

Juan Williams is awesome, Fred Barnes and Mort Kondrake are fantastic and don't always agree...in fact usually don't, and Bill Kristol, as mentioned, though conservative, has an understanding about the scene that few except for Rove, Carvill, and Morris have.

Michael Barone is masterful. Period. And just having him gives them an edge.

Do you know anything about Charles Krauthammer? You have to be kidding me! This guy is a Pulitzer's prize winning journalist, a psychiatrist who discovered a specific type of Bi-Polar disorder, doesn't tow any party line, though librals like to think of him as a neo-con even though he doesn't fit into that category at all(can you say pro-choice?), and is probably the sharpest tool in the shed after Kristol and Williams.

And that's not talking about visuals, just people. On visuals, CNN's visuals are horrid, and MSNBC's are slightly easier to read sometimes.

Again, I say BBC America. if you aren't watching it, it's a shame.

But for a second place, Fox's political analysts are more diverse, and aren't all conservative.

Then compare Matthews to Hume, who, though a conservative, is far better at overseeing than both Blitzer and Matthews.

On interviews, and commentary, we also get Chris Wallace. You can't say anything bad about this guy. he asks the tough questions, and is one of the best journalists in the country.

And then lets not forget Jim Angle, who is viewed as one of the most fair journalists on network news, and again, is a great co-anchor.

So we have fair, exceptional, journalists, anchors that aren't on crack or make you think you are with their pie-charts(I'm talking to you WOLF), and overall analysis from insiders who know the scene. Sounds good to me .

If you disagree. That's fine. I don't really care. I'll be watching BBC America anyway. ;-)

Mike you shouldn't waste so much energy on little Joey. He's the most irrelevant, biased and substance-free poster on this site. He's only here to beat his dead horse of political socialism over and over and over again. His opinions are both vacuous and prejudiced to the point of being laughable if he weren't taking himself seriously.

One would expect the management of this site to ask him to curb his pathetic and vile one-note bleat since it's usually off topic and divisive, but they support his position and less-than-secretly prefer nothing but unwashed socialists here. Oh, don't expect them to come out and say it because they're "caring and open-minded" which is commie speak for "we care only if you share our views".

Hell, Bobbo here is actually proud of the fact that he supports big government programs, otherwise known as socialism. You remember socialism, don't you? It's something we used to fight overseas, now our Dumocrat friends have brought it to our shores in the guise of "compassion", when it's really just a way to foster reliance on the government and lose any shred of personal responsibility. Why get up in the morning and take a chance on being a real, live grown-up when you can just have the government give you what you want? Oh no, I can't bother to pay my own medical bills AND stay home to watch Streisand on The View! I need the government to help me, it's not my fault!

Sick, sick, sick. Lazy, irresponsible, entitlement-crazy and smug about it. America is being corrupted from within and it's California liberals like little Joey who just won't shut up because he just *KNOWS* he's smarter than the founding fathers who designed this nation to run on self-reliance and small government. They were a bunch of idiots after all, weren't they? What a loudmouthed fool.

Uh Fox does try to claim they are the best, Brit Hume uses the "The Best Political Team Ever" line. They covered this on the Daily Show a couple of weeks ago.

NBC, in particular Russert, I adore, but MSNBC, not so much. lol
