Alan Colmes To Leave "Hannity & Colmes"

[CatWoman]

Fox News host Alan Colmes will leave his role as co-host of "Hannity & Colmes" at the end of the year, the network announced Monday.

Colmes, who has co-hosted the program with Sean Hannity for 12 years, will remain with the network as a liberal commentator and will develop a weekend program, in addition to his radio show.

"I approached Bill Shine (FNC's Senior Vice President of Programming) earlier this year about wanting to move on after 12 years to develop new and challenging ways to contribute to the growth of the network," Colmes said. "Although it's bittersweet to leave one of the longest marriages on cable news, I'm proud that both Sean (Hannity) and I remained unharmed after sitting side by side, night after night for so many years."

Hannity added, "Not only has Alan been a remarkable co-host, he's been a great friend which is rare in this industry -- I'll genuinely miss sparring with such a skillful debate partner."

Earlier this year, Colmes debuted his blog, Alan Colmes' LiberalLand.

15. Wait until you see the next "liberal" he'll be even uglier looking than Colmes

(if that's possible).

FOX news goes for the low-end subconscious, make the liberals ugly & dumb looking, make the liberals out to look like scary crazy monsters, so as to make the republican Hannity look like the knight in shinny armour for the idiot republican sheep.

FOX uses looks to sway their imbeciles viewers opinions...shallow but effective, especially among republicans.
