Who's the worst person on any network news channel in the US?
My personal vote would go to John Gibson. I think he's worse than even people like Hannity and O'Reilly.

3. Oh God, there are so many evil fuckwads on the airwaves it's hard to
choose. All things considered though, I would have to go with that stinking pile of steaming freeptard excrement Brit Hume. Anyone who uses an international tragedy as a reason to issue stock tips deserves a special place in Satans bedroom!

7. His work in NOLA won over a lot of DUers
He described what he saw.

5. My vote
Fox and Friends Steve Ducy and ED Hill. Both equally prude, ignorant, and downright unfair.

10. Anyone that confuses news with RW propaganda.
Hannity and O'Reilly are bad, but I think most realize they are doing commentary/interview shows. Hume, Cavuto, et al fancy themselves news people, and are perceived as such. This is dangerous.

On sheer obnoxiousness and general repulsiveness, Bill O'Reilly hands down. Everything about him makes me ill.

12. Yes, John Gibson is bad in every way there is
so hard to look at. All of them at Fux are bottom of the barrel.

I have a hard time with Rita Cosby, she annoys me something fierce. And lately, Soledad O'Brien is like sandpaper, that phoney nicey nice.
I suppose, as far as "legit" news people go, I'd have to say Wolf Blitzer.

14. Ah yes, I forgot about Rita
She is very annoying, I can't watch her. She's otherwise harmless though.

13. I can't even watch Bill O'Reilly.
His propaganda spewing can make me go from 0 to throwing things at the television in less than 5 seconds generally. Then my blood pressure goes up and it's just not good for my physical or mental health in general. I sincerely hate that asshole.
