Good for FOX. We will have more coverage of this anti-Catholic scandal in the days to come than we can stand, I am sure.

I do pray for the repose of his soul.

Maybe FOX doesn’t consider this to be the most importabt thing in the world.

After all, he was The Swimmer. Maybe we could all rehash Chappaquidick and the foul way he treated his wife Joan.

>and even a state funeral.

Disgusting. After what he did to Mary Jo there should be an outcry against such nonsense.

I do too. As soon as i woke up this AM, my husband told me he had died, and all i could think was that FINALLY judgment day had arrived for Ted.

If FNC truly wants to be regarded as a professional news gathering organization, rather than just a place for political commentary, they really need to improve their breaking and international news coverage - desperately.

Tell me you didn't get enough coverage of Michael Jackson. If anything, Fox and the other networks need to cover real news instead of trying to be politically correct.

Had Mary Jo been my daughter, this guy would have “disappeared” 40 years ago.

” They broke in about 5 minutes ago and covered it for about 45 seconds, good enough for me.”

One time screen crawl coverage would suffice for “ we covered it” for me.....

Peta should show the before and after photos of Teddy to replace their Whale billboards.

That would make their point better...............

Good for FOX news. Life does not stop because one murderer dies on the other side of the US, even if it’s a Kennedy. This mans death means nothing to me.

"Got any facts to back up your empty assertions?

Touched I nerve, did I Mr. Murdoch?

You can protest all you want, but FNC is much more of a tabloid network populated with a few talking heads at night. One needs look no further than the news last night. ABC was almost a full:25 minutes ahead of FNC just reporting it - not even on a crawl. And, when they did finally get around to breaking into a rerun of Greta (and remember, this happened at 10:30 pm PST), the girl who broadcast it wasn't even in the studio. They had set up a camera in what appeared to be a production area - why? Who knows.

If it's a car chase, or a dead pop star or a cat in a tree, FNC is all over it - assuming of course that it happens before 8:00 PM EST. If it happens after that, they're screwed.

Viewers turn into breaking news. Why have them switch to CNN?

Speaking of which, I wonder where the new Senior Senator from Massachusetts was?

The insufferably haughty John Kerry (he served in Vietnam by the way) was probably practicing in front of the ginned out Theresa Heinz his senior senator act.
