Suspected Felon And Substance Abuser Ann Coulter Gets A Third Night Of Republican Rehab From “Criminals R Us” FOX News
Are you the subject of a criminal investigation? Is there a skeleton in your closet? Just spout a few Republican talking points, attack Democrats whenever possible and you, too, can be rehabilitated as a FOX News pundit. You may not only get paid, as convicted felon (overturned on a technicality) and FOX News host Oliver North does, you might get three nights of prime-time publicity for your new book, as suspected felon and likely substance abuser Ann Coulter has gotten this week on Hannity & Colmes. There are probably countless more hours of rehab PR for her to come.

Hypocrite O'Reilly Lies Again

Fox's Goal: To Silence Half the Voices in the United States
Today (March 21, 2006) on Your World, Neil Cavuto hosted musicians Donnie and Clint Van Zant. Cavuto prefaced the segment with a blurb about Susan Sarandon's appearance at a New York City concert last night. The concert was called "Bring 'Em Home Now!" and was, as Cavuto made sure to point out, also attended by Cindy Sheehan (whom Fox has painted not as a mom who wonders what her son died for, but as Bush-hater #1 (Sarandon is roughly #4, behind George Soros and MoveOn.org). Cavuto spoke briefly about Sarandon and the event while Fox aired a chyron that read, "Stars Align Against the War and President Bush." In a promo before the segment, a graphic showed a picture of Sarandon over the caption: "Anti-Bush."
