FOX to host ANOTHER debate ?

[JI7]

did i hear right. brit hume said to stay tuned for the next debate, i think in november ? was it another fox sponsered debate he was talking about or a general debate shown on more than one station ? and why is fox getting all these debates ?

1. Democrats ought to protest that

No way those disruptors would have been allowed in, anywhere else.

6. Rev Sharpton told 'em just that

2. Faux

has the highest ratings...the candidates want the most exposure, so they go where the numbers are...If Ted Turner can do something to kick murdoch's ass in ratings, maybe CNN will get the next one.

3. good point

but most fox viewers are right wingers who will never vote for them. i don't really have that big a problem with them doing a fox sponsered debate though. was just wondering why. can't they do one shown on nbc, cbs, abc ? rather than cable. or do those networks refuse to air them ?

4. Nitric Acid Couldn't Purify "Faux"

I'd like to see further debates on PBS and NPR and broadcast by the networks as an afterthought.

5. I agree, it does more harm than good

sure, Faux has the most viewers ON CABLE, which isn't saying much. Much better to be on PBS, at least they may have some security worth a crap there. Geez, what if one of those LaDouche people had a gun or something?

7. they got the debates because they paid for them of course

its not like networks were lining up for them and its easy to outbid PBS et al.
