Big deal. One pit bull replaces another. Did anyone really expect them to hire a collie?

[Nyla785]

Too bad. Greta was the only Fox News anchor with an actual personality of her own. I SWEAR those Fox News bimbos are all the same woman--but with different wigs, make up, and outfits!

[BeasleysMom]

Ted Bundy and the Craigslist k!ller had actual personalities, too.

[BabblingBrooks]

Clearly no grasp of reality. They are all markedly different.

[marinade]

She is rude. The only time I have seen her was in an interview with Bill Burton from the Obama campaign. She would not shut up. She's worse than O'Reilly.

[jsomerville5]

She's pretty, but she has a very abrupt and gruff manner that is offputting. Her voice is very masculine and combative. Not soothing to listen to.

[AnnfromCA]

I don't care for Greta, but this is a complete joke, too.

Knowing Fox, it'll work.

[rubygreen]

Ann I can finally say I agree with you on something! It's a great day.

[BabblingBrooks]

You don't know Fox. You don't know jack.

[GrandGuignol]

Megyn Kelly looks like the girls you see on the calendars in gas station restrooms.

[avshanbh]

Does this mean Greta will be Palin's spokesperson full time?

[ProudlyConservative42]

That was funny the first fifty times I read it on this thread.

[MaximMaximus]

Van Susteren is way past her expiration date as an anchor. Her credibility is non-existent. Since her husband is Palin's consultant, she's in the middle of a massive conflict of interest and yet she continued to be her PR person of sorts on Faux News which, in my opinion, is enough reason to accuse her with lack of integrity and terminate her contract.

[AnnfromCA]

Absurd. She's just boring, that's all.

[MaximMaximus]

Boring she is. But that is no ground for dismissal. Lack of credibility and integrity are, however, strong grounds for dismissal. But, of course, I am not surprised that you missed these points.

[John Russell]

Fox has the best looking gals by far! Not even close!

[dillydawg]

They want to make sure your head is stimulated.

[rubygreen]

Stepford wives one and all, as are most of the republican women I know.

[2008CaliforniaFan]

I might agree... but their IQs must at least get into the 'double digits' first. At least 10.... maybe 20...?

[xmontreal]

Watch Telemundo if you want to see hot chicks

[AprilPA]

Yeah, mostly Stepford blondes.

[2008CaliforniaFan]

Does this mean that Carrie Prejean will get to be the New ' 5:00 Sl..ut.. I mean Slot....! (just a typo )

[dillydawg]

Ha Ha, I luv It!

[avshanbh]

Best looking doesn't mean smartest or any journalistic qualities.

[Winthorpe]

5:00 sl..ut.. let's leave my personal life out of this.

[Jazzman323]

I know it would never happen, but I would love to see Megyn Kelly debate Rachel Maddow on a legal issue.

[houseboat67]

A Rhodes Scholar vs an Albany Law School grad. You have to be kidding?

[Janus]

A bigger laughfest would be a debate between Maddow and Fox's clown Hannutsy equipped intelectually with his community college associate degree in General Studies (a GED certificte with a gold border?).

[Jazzman323]

Megyn was the editor of the Albany Law Review while there. There is a long list of top names that attended this school. I don't think pegging one university against another proves anything.

She was also a practicing attorney doing litigation work. Rachel, it appears, went right into radio with no legal experience.

It goes to judgement and intellect. Maddow is a far left zealot. Love to see a debate.

[hip dibler]

she's smart?

she's a news reader.

[BabblingBrooks]

Clearly you have never watched. She's exceptionally brilliant and has that rare ability to keep her personal feelings out of it. She's OBJECTIVE. I realize that's not appreciated around here, but...

[John Russell]

They will keep both of 'em.

[Skyhawk]

Well Greta it's the pasture for you. Fox got some real eye candy now.
