Brit ALWAYS called out Mara LIARson....Brett doesn’t...he lets her lie.
DUMP SHEP!!!
Couple of things...
I seriously doubt that ‘Baier’ made the changes to the program. There’s a chain of command from the line producer(s) up to the executive producer and beyond that would have to sign off on said changes, and since Baier’s main background is NOT in anchoring (at least during his Fox tenure) it’s doubtful that he’s the source of the ‘new ideas’.
Second, the dropoff in gravitas between Hume and Baier is huge. I’m honestly quite surprised they didn’t replace Brit with either Jim Angle (good) or Brian Wilson (better). Bret is a decent guy, but is way too green (young) to be an anchor at that level.
I guess it could be worse—at least they didn’t choose Chris Wallace...he’s a terrible interviewer and even worse in a roundtable (panel) type setting. I thought once that Krauthammer was gonna leap out of his wheelchair and strangle Wallace when he kept cutting Charles off.
Brett's a pro if he can open his show almost every night with the words:
"President Obama"
I’ll take him-Anderson Cooper!
I like Brett Baier...I like him more now. He does a very good job on Special Report.
“....Brett doesn’t...he lets her lie”
That’s because he is a young man with very good manners. He defers to the elderly.
He needs to take charge. I like him other than that.
Brett hasn't nearly grown into Hume's boots, in my opinion.
Yeah, without even noticing that ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC are tentacles of the Democrat Party.
We have put little Paul on our prayer list.
Obviously, he’ll never replace Britt, but Baier does a good job. The article also claimed that half a million people watch that pig Ed Schultz, which I simply do not believe.
Now if they’d just get rid of Shemp Smith.
Holy God,
You have given this good man and his wife a wonderful son, and we know that there is a reason for everything they are enduring. May Your healing hand rest upon Little Paul and restore his heart to perfect working order. Use every part of this trial to draw this family closer to each other and closer to You. And may You receive all the praise and glory for this healing. We exalt You and glorify You in the Name of Jesus Christ. Thank You, Father. Amen.
Shemp was a poor substitute for Curly. Not as poor as Joe Besser or Curly Joe Dorita, but Shemp was no Curly by any stretch. Shemp was funnier by himself, as in “The Bank Dick”.
The ratings are up, the brass {including Hume} love him, and his time slot kicks the crap out of the commie news network and pmsnbc...What more could anyone ask for?
I think Brett is doing fine. He may not have the stature of Brit Hume yet, but give the guy some time.
Having that segment is just the right balance with the serious news and debate. We need something like that what with all the bad stuff coming out of Washington.
Amen. God bless this family during a difficult time.
