And I didn't make up the Alyssa Milano thing, she tweeted it. She might have been drunk, or painting indoors with the windows closed at the time, but she tweeted it. She's all kinds of smart.

No - but Baio is low hanging fruit.
And yes I know she tweeted it - I saw it and linked to it...

Not necessarily - twitter users have a habit of replicating good and bad tweets - but you already know this |

I've actually never been on twitter, they were making fun of her on Fox. Deservedly so. |

I can't watch Hannity. Most of the others, are better than everyone else's best. In any event, they appear to have reported this one correctly, did they not?
You are unaware, or are denying, that a liberal said something laughably stupid. We're all astounded. |

I don't think you have to look very far to find people saying stupid things. Reporting on matters of insignificance is pretty lame though. I'd pay more attention to what those in influential positions are spouting off on. |

"I don't think you have to look very far to find people saying stupid things"
True enough, but I can spot that and ignore it. I'm looking for people saying smart things, and there's more of that on Fox, than on any other network. It's the only network where thoughtful liberals and thoughtful conservatives are each given the chance to make their case. Brett Baier's show at 6:00 would very regularly have Charles Krauthammer and Juan Williams together. Watching a segment with those two guys, is how you learn.
The other networks don't come close, the other networks have almost nothing other than hosts who are the left-wing equivalent of Sean Hannity. On Fox, he's an outlier in terms of his thoughtless ideology. On the other networks, 90% of the hosts are pure ideologues. The ratings speak for themselves. |

Juan Williams is a token lefty for the network. They rarely even let him speak. I see conservatives all the time on the other networks.
The difference is, even if there's bias against Trump...they don't just make crap up like on Fox. |
