Fox & Friends Gives Carrie Prejean Her Chance

Miss California and Miss USA runner-up, Carrie Prejean, tossed around in the battle over gay marriage, will be a one-day guest host for Fox News Channel's popular morning show Fox & Friends, Whispers learns. She will host the 6 a.m.-to-7 a.m. slot on May 27, filling in for Gretchen Carlson—the 1989 Miss America—who will be off that day.

The decision to make her a one-day cohost was finalized yesterday—the same day Prejean and Miss USA owner Donald Trump appeared on Fox & Friends.

Suzanne Scott, Fox vice president for programming, filled me in on the details of the gig for Prejean, who was thrust into the headlines when she rejected gay marriage during the Q&A part of the pageant. "We're just using her one time," she said, "to sit with the boys and have some fun." The boys are cohosts Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade. "She has become a national celebrity in the last few weeks, and it's a fun thing to do," said Scott. "It's a good way to try get a little buzz and fun for the show. We'll see what happens with it," she added.

Brian is going to have trouble controlling himself. Laura Ingraham predicted when this whole fuss started that she would make the perfect “Fox Info. Babe”. My wife still thinks she was computer generated as no human could look that good.

Is that program open source? Where can I download it?

That is true, and some what ironic, since Prissy Hilton’s little term for Carrie actually applies to Shep...

He is a little bitch...

But she would need to increase the amount of eye mascarra to equal shep’s and increase his drama-queen attribute.

In other words if she’s any good at all, she gets a regular job there. Knock ‘em dead Carrie!

Note to PMSNBC: Why don't you try to counter program by inviting Perez Hilton to do a guest host gig? (Tehehehehehehe- Boy, that would be ratings monster-for the competition. Bwahahahahahaha)...

Does ANYONE like Shep Smith?

Nobody I know does.

How does he keep his position? Or do I really want to know the answer to that?

Shep does; Shep loves Shep Smith. Meanwhile, my TV remote loves to click the next channel when he appears.....

Lou Dobbs is much better than Shep Smith. Don’t know why Fox keeps him on.....unwatchable to me.

I am in a much frowned upon segment of the financial industry - investment banking. I’ll gladly resign from to become the person in charge of interviewing and hiring the babes on Fox. Please, God, forgive me my sins and be my reference.
