Someone should have pointed out the etymology of "gyn" before she changed her name.

[NHBill]

I'm betting she knows!

[Moshe]

You gotta love the "replace Greta" part . . .

[poaster]

We need a smirk free zone, but not another Jane Velez "I only know one volume when I speak, loud and obnoxious". Fox News show reruns of Family Guy and I might tune in.

[bilmardre]

I love it when she looks into the camera with that wild eyed "the sky is falling" look.

[Nivekian]

I guess Greta is being put out to pasture, so they need another soft-core porn star looking Philly to take her spot.

Fox: Who needs real reporting when you employ real life Kelly Bundys?

[Indy 44]

So your world is one where it's not possible for good-looking women to also be smart (or, horror, conservative).

Let's put Megyn Kelly Bundy on Jeopardy against you. She'll eat you alive.

[KarateKid]

She can eat me anytime, but no thanks to watching her.

[Mycorrhizae]

I have heard the news bunny speak-- it's only the looks.

[TheLearnedEnglishDog]

The word "conservative" used to mean something.

[XLintLuvR]

Look at the stable of gorgeous "rising stars" the repubs have. There's not a single one of them I'd consider a scholar. Perhaps you were confused as to the definition of what intelligence is. After all, your side considers "intelligent design" something to be compared with science. Yep. I think that says it all. Indy...hmm­m...isn't IN where Mike Pence hails from? When asked if he believed in evolution he refused to admit it because he knew the base would go ape$h!+? Regardless of whether or not he believed it. His lack of intellectual security to admit what he knows is true makes him weak. That bevvy of conservative babes don't have the smarts. They don't know what they don't know. Not saying it's impossible for good looking women to be smart also, but smart, attractive women don't seem to go in politics or become outspoken republicans. Name one! I'll even spot you Mann Coultergheist cuz she's got an Ivy League education. Those don't come cheap nor easy but how she chooses to use it worries me.

[Nivekian]

I doubt she is anything but a typical Fox/ Republican-style trophy wife. Not like they are going to hire a reporter who can't do a segment in a Bikini.

[albanianmomforobama]

Rising star? Oh pleaseeee.­.!

[twisted-european]

More like armageddon: meteor hitting earth

[Joeinloth]

Guess Greta paid off the plastic surgery.

[Mycorrhizae]

Greta will be working on the Palin campaign.

[PresidentRobertBooth]

She's blonde, bias, and clueless.


Perfect Murdoch female employee.

[mrskravitz]

Why is it that all the fox news ladies like Gretta and Ms. Kelly have to get facial surgery before being anchors? Ms. Kelly had a nose job about three years ago. She started out sort of ok but fell into the Dennis Miller syndrome of , 'I'll kiss Bill O'Reilly's butt no matter what ,if I can just stay on tv and get a paycheck'.

I am sorry, but give me a free thinking newsperson anyday of the week no matter what they look like. And how do the conservatives justify their mighty family values/ FOX News dedication when the same empire (Rupert Murdoch) that owns Fox also puts out a major London newspaper with naked women posing each day on page 3?

[rwext]

Why is it that all MSNBC people , Olbermaddow and Matthews who need facial surgery don't?

[SayLessDoMore]

Different demographic. They aren't trying to reach shallow, weak-minded sycophants.

[unhhockey]

I'll always remember during the election when she viewed "Who's Nalin Paylin" and told us how objectionable it was. There's some "hard hitting" reporting for you.

[Budokan]

She's able to spew the proper hate-quotient so she should be a great replacement.
