Greta Van Sustren blogs

Have these men lost their minds? (and these are my colleagues??!! oh brother… maybe I need to have a little chat with them) (next thing they will have a segment to discuss eliminating women’s right to vote?)


here are some of the comments on her site:

Remind them that the lack of jobs in the USA has forced men to get lower paying jobs. On top of the fact that these female breadwinners are only making 77% of what a man would make in the same job, this means less "bread" on the table.


"Have these men lost their minds?" No Greta, you lost your way a while back but you finally found your own wake-up call. If you lie with snakes you'll eventually be bitten. That truism is in every culture and every language around the world throughout history. Let's see if this truly wakes you up or if you'll keep moving your own fuzzy line of acceptance to include this new attack on women from your wonderful "colleagues" who don't see you as an equal anyway. If you're not equally deserving of respect, you're certainly not equally deserving of equal pay or voting rights. PS: Insert "minorities" instead of "women" and you'll get your colleague's bigger plan for our country. Sometimes people need an epiphany to switch parties, hopefully you've gotten yours today.


Hello Greta!! We've been waiting for you to see the light!!


Don't forget its Roger Ales memo


It took her this long to figure out men on Fox News don't give a damn about women.


You should probably leave Fox... you can do sooo much better, Ms. Greta!!!! (deserve better)

to which GVS responds:

I enjoy my work -- even if it is a tad bit late in the schedule. I enjoy working at Fox.

With all do respect Greta, as a former Fox News viewer its sad that because you claim to like your job and working for Fox that you are willing to tolerate such ignorant mentalities from people you know and work with on a daily basis (because this happens nearly every day on Fox News). You are willing to sacrifice your beliefs and women's rights just for a job.

The way I see it, and many others probably do, this post has zero value considering the only power you seem to have is to speak your mind on a site that you control but not speak straight to them or even have the willingness to walk away from such a terrible group of people. This is worse than surrender, this is acceptance with a fake disagreement. How sad.


I'm not sure which is worse: that anywhere employs people this delusional, that Greta Van Susteren worked with them for this long and didn't notice it, or that people in this country will be watching their TVs and shaking their heads in agreement with it.


I think they ought to send these men to thier perfect society. This is how they treat women in Iran and North koriea. Could someone check thier green cards? I am sure they are not Americans.

Yes Greta...The very fact that they are in agreement with YOU on almost every other issue proves it.
