It's like these people are allergic to responsible journalism.

Not to mention the guy hosts a show called "Beyond The Politics," which is hilarious considering Bennett's made a fortune off driving the anti-gay politics of the Republican Party.

Note to CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A PARTISAN HOSTING A SHOW ON YOUR CHANNEL.

There are so many bright independents out there it's embarrassing that folks like Keith Olbermann, Joe Scarborough, Lou Dobbs, and Brit Hume host all their shows.

Are there any truly nonpartisan show hosts on these channels?

Anderson Cooper is the only one I can think of. Who's out there that isn't tied to a party?

Don't worry. When Obama is elected and Pelosi reenacts the fairness doctrine. There will only be one view allowed and it will be the lefts.
Nothing else will be tolerated.

I can not believe that they still let him on the channel after his actions during the convention coverage. He was going crazy and acted like he wanted to fight after the story broke on Palin's Daughter anad how her boyfriend does not know how to pull out or use a condom. He is not aware of the political climate that he is in. He is too traditional.

:hmmm:

How do you expect the Fairness Doctrine to be restored?

It was struck down by a far more liberal SC than we have today.

Considering the basis for that decision is even more the case now then it was in the 80's? Specifically, the large number of media outlets compared to the few that existed when the doctrine was originally conceived as an anti-communist measure.

Ah...this must be the Right wing version of the Left's "If McCain is elected we're all GONNA DIE IN WW4 or 5!!!".

I can't stand him ( Wolf ) , but he is pro liberal .....Although nothing like Keith Oberman, that guy is a extreme leftist.

Wolf is not a liberal. Oberman may be a leftist though.
