But Fox News is fair and balanced..honest...
yeah right :eyes: ....if they were actually "fair and balanced" why in the world would they hook their wagon or take on such a right wing radio station such as Seattle's KVI?
Not that there was any doubt, but still....drop the fair and balanced and rename yourself what you are....GOP TV.



KVI Fox News Announcement


“Our listeners love and trust FOX News,” say’s KVI Radio Program Director Paul Duckworth, “that’ is why we are teaming up with The FOX News Channel to bring Seattle FOX News and Talk on the radio.”

In an unprecedented partnership, FOX will provide around-the-clock news updates, special breaking news coverage as well as some of the network’s top personalities to host talk programs on KVI. FOX News host Tony Snow will man the 9-noon slot, FOX’s Sean Hannity continues to broadcast live between noon and 3 and now Hannity will return for a daily encore at 6pm. Between 7 and 9pm, KVI will air FOX News Live with Alan Colmes co-host of The FOX News Channel’s Hannity and Colmes. FOX New Live will features election updates, news reports, interviews and listener phone calls. Local host Kirby Wilbur enters his 11th year as host of the KVI early morning show and long-time host and former gubernatorial candidate John Carlson will continue to broadcast between 3pm and 6pm.

KVI airs FOX News updates at the top-of-the hour 24 hours a day and is adding special FOX reports at the bottom-of-the hour in the morning and afternoon.

“I think that most folks are aware of the power of FOX,” Duckworth says. "In some recent ratings FOX is simply blowing away, not only other cable networks, but NBC, CBS and ABC. Our listeners love great debate, and you’ll hear plenty of fireworks all day. And we plan to deliver the FOX strategy of fair and balanced programming.”

3. Which is quite shocking....
but apparently, and I am looking for a link, but Washington is no longer a swing state....we are going for Kerry 52%-41% or something...will look for the story.
