No story yet (headline only with siren); will post it when Drudge does.

[fish hawk]

Wouldn't it be nice if Geraldo eloped with Greta and they ran away to Ugly Land together. Ugly land is where they breed and raise little Liberals.THE HENS ARE IN THE FOX HOUSE HHHEEELLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!

[Focault's Pendulum]

I always wanted to see Greta Van Sustern debate the meaning of the phrase “Suffering Succotash!” with Rudy Guiliani and Sylvester the Cat.

With helium.

[SusanUSA]

hmmmmmmmmmm sounds like a plan of cnn to kill fox ,they know if their people go there people will stop watching FOX

That's what I was thinking - industrial sabotage. I wonder how much CNN is paying her to go?

Just because CNN is letting her go, or she's telling them bye bye doesn't mean FOX has to hire her. If FOX's ratings fall, they'll have only themselves to blame.

[BubbaJunebug]

Put John Gibson in a dress and Greta will still be the ugliest woman on T.V.

[freekitty]

Maybe this is how the conservatives are doing the libs in. I understand Geraldo is not a happy camper now. I sure wish they would actually dump him and I don't even want to think about Greta. Has Roger gone mad or does he owe someone. He already employs some of the biggest bimbo acting women ever on news programs.

I also hold to the right to say out loud that Scientology, for the most part, is just plain weird. Even if Isaac Hayes, John Travolta, Tom Cruise and others partake of that "belief system". (now donning asbestos-lined suit...)

Beware the wrath of Xenu!

Actually, the asbestos will come in handy when he drops you into a volcano and detonates nuclear weapons on top of it....

Bwa ha ha ha ha

[eureka!]

Ugh. Greta grates, IMHO. What's next? Bill Schneider?

[Amore]

and WAA LAH baby,

Isn't there anyone out there who knows how to spell "Voila!" anymore?

[AmishDude]

Yes, I know, market share and competition of ideas, yadda yadda. It's not the liberalism I mind. It's the yecch factor. Greta is just -- yecch.

"I think I am going to be ill. I loathe Greta.

Can I second that emotion? Just the sound of her voice makes me sick and I have to turn the channel. We seem to be losing the Fox that we all Love and fought for.

[monkeyshine]

Cash trumps ideology. What else is new?

So what you are saying is that you are "losing faith" in someone who doesn't share the same religious beliefs as you? I don't get it. You would simply stop watching someone because they are of a different religion that yours and don't agree with a tenent of your faith. That's just plain stupid if you don't mind me saying so. I disagree with Roberstson and Falwell at times, but I'll still listen to either of them because on the whole I like what they have to say.

[g'nad]

I feel a projectile vomiting session coming on...

What is FOX thinking hiring the Cistern?...

[Common Tator]

Everyone has been speculating about when Greta Van Sustern would be forced out at CNN. Lots of the Greta types have been let go at CNN for new and more pleasant faces.

It had been rumored that Greta had the inside track on taking over the lead role in the Vagina Monologues on Broadway. Unfortuneately for Greta, the pre-hire physical showed she did not have one.

I'm a bit of a francophone myself, and few things make me laugh out loud faster than when someone spells it "Viola!" I want to respond "Cello!"

[Don Joe]

Whew, boy...the only way I can live with this one
is if they made her do news/comments in a bikini...

Can't you afford syrup of ipecac?

[RedBloodedAmerican]

I also heard NakedNews is coming to Fox.

So CNN has learned; keep your enemies close, but....

Nothing like flooding the last major semi-conservative news media source with liberal loyalists. So long Fox.

OMG! That's FUNNY.
