Two questions: This will help FNC's reputation how? Why are we running comedy's on a News station? For that matter, why isn't Greta on Court TV and Shep on Sesame Street?

and Shep on Sesame Street?
AMEN, the dude is as empty a suit as Obama...
Sheps two claims to fame: 1 Assault on another reporter in FLA in 2000 and
2 "NOLA has dodged a bullet---Katrina is not swamping the city, the pumps are working...."
To call shep a dipsh*t is an insult to Dipsh*ts
To: TheHound
It is....FCC was already taken.

I'm looking forward to it...no one else is running any conservative comedy. I loved the short-lived animated conservative show called
This Just In on Spike TV.

Let's just call it Fox News and Entertainment Channel then. When things go to hell, I can see Oliver North and his history channel program or I can see a rerun of Larry King live interviewing zsa zsa gabor or I can flip over to msnbc and see investigative reports from 1987......What's wrong with a news channel showing news? I know...we have a short attention span. ;-)
