July 31, 200818 yr If I were running CNN or MSNBC, I would attempt to hire Laura Ingraham and/or Michelle Malkin and give them their own shows. I am sure that I am not the only conservative who would gladly tune in to watch Ingraham and Malkin. Pair Laura Ingraham with Ed Schultz and you would have a show that would give Hannity and Colmes a real run for its money.Laura Ingraham, I can see ... agree with her or not, she makes an impassioned case for her positions. Michelle Malkin? No way. This is the same woman that accused John Kerry of earning one of his Purple Hearts with "self-inflicted wounds" in Vietnam and went after the Baltimore family that came out in favor of expanding the SCHIP program. Any reputable network can do better.
July 31, 200818 yr Author Do you think that conservatives just did not watch the news before Fox revolutionized the news business? Who would they have watched with the fervor they now have with Fox? Fox saw Rush's success and decided to carry it over to the world of cable. Your point is that the other networks would do better if they had conservatives. I've shown you that the 3 lowest shows on cable are a)not on Fox and b)hosted by conservatives.

Conservatives abandoned CNN in droves when a more moderate and unbiased news source became availabe. That is where Fox News' viewers were drawn - not from people who were not watching news channels. It will take a top-flyte conservative to draw viewers away from Fox News. Glenn Beck is the only quality host that comes to mind and he is wasting away on CNN Headline News. Laura Ingraham would attract an audience on CNN in prime time. I would love to see her placed opposite Bill O'Reilly.
August 1, 200818 yr I am going to try to take you up on your challenge. I will watch FoxNews during the times that I would normally watch CNN. Watching Greta Van Susteren at the moment. So far, I am really enjoying watching Bill O'Reilly.
