There are a lot of folks at Fox News who bring a certain level of sophistication to their understanding of politics.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think the vision for FOX is to have a network full of people who have opinions as opposed to people who say news. If my message doesn't fit in, but I get that platform, then I'm reaching the people who most need to hear it.
I've become very interested in the spectrum of political discourse as seen on the cable news channels that are conveniently right in a row on my cable provider's dial. I can flip from Fox to CNN to HLN to MSNBC, and I find myself at night flipping it back and forth through them, and it's something of an addiction.
I think FoxNews ratings are a reliable guide to the attitudes of the American electorate.
I'm pleased to offer analysis of public policy and politics to the millions of Americans who get their news from Fox.
My close proximity to many of the newsmakers can give me a different perspective about people in politics and what they might say than others who don't know them.
Even a liberal reporter is a patriot, wants the best for this country. And people, your fair and balanced friends at Fox, don't fully understand that.
When I hear people say that Fox News is right wing, I know that's not true, because I'm the one doing the news. It's my show, and there's no place for opinion on my show. It's uninteresting to me.
I'm not sophisticated when it comes to politics, when it comes to journalism.
The people who whine about Fox News are hypocrites - they say they're totally tolerant, but when they run into someone who doesn't share their assumptions, they say, 'Fox News is evil, and it must be stopped.'
I think people have an idea of what Fox News is. If people don't watch Fox News, then it's just a caricature, it's not real, they have it in their heads that it's something very different than what it actually is.
