"The liberal media watchdog group Fairness and Accuracy in Media studied two weeks of "Hannity & Colmes" this summer and found that between the co-hosts and their guests, conservatives spoke 2,768 lines to 2,004 for liberals. "

As an aside... Russert's panel today had 3 to 1 libs.
Matthews had 3-0 libs.

My reaction to that line was "well, it looks like Liberals got around 1500+ more lines than conservatives would have gotten on similar shows on ABCNNBCBS".

What errr... "FAIR"... fails to mention is that half of the 2,768 lines spoken by conservatives are statements from Hannity trying to shut up the loud and obnoxious liberal guests and give the conservative guest a chance to speak. They have to threaten to cut the liberal's mike all the time, I've never seen them have to threaten to cut off a conservative guest's mike.
