Hello NoEinstein, With all due respect, FOX News is a news organization. I don't want FOX News, or any other news organization doing anything more than what it is that they do.....Report the news. Act as a check on government by reporting the news, and finally, putting good looking women on as anchors.
Again, with all due respect, (and I mean that sincerely) Jesse "The Body" Ventura, the former "Voice Of The Tampa Bay Buccaneers"; is an idiot. "The Body" has never, ever had a "pragmatic, independent thought" in his lifetime, and to make matters worse, "The Body" is a "conspiratorialist"; believing nonsensical theoretical conspiracies with no foundation.
