Help...I need some conservative names on T.V.! I have a fight going

[dorktv]

on in another chat room and I can not remember the non-fox ones!

[Blue-Jay]

1. Chris Matthews, Pat Buchanon, Joe Scarborough

Is that the sort of rabble you're looking for?

[dorktv]

2. Yeah! But not on Fox News...and the ones on

Regular TV would help. Thanks!

[Langis]

4. none of those are on fox

[Blue-Jay]

6. Oh. Those are all on MSNBC.

Let me guess. You're having a "liberal media" debate.

[dorktv]

8. Yes...idiots.

[Langis]

3. Scarbarough

[0rganism]

5. Here's some for starters

Chris "hardon" Matthews
Pat Buchanan
Michael "Savage" Wiener
The Entire McClaughlin Group
The Beltway Boys

[uhhuh]

7. Tim Russert

Charlie Rose.

[Faygo Kid]

32. Rush's lap boy

I can't stand Russert; he is Rush's personal (and only) interviewer, worshipful of that pilodinal cyst. Awful.

[juajen]

9. Is everyone forgetting CNN?

How about Paula Zahn, Tucker Carlson, Bob Novak and Candy Crowley(sp?).

Questionable are: Wolf Blitzer; Lou Dobbs; Judy Woodruff; Aaron Brown (though I like him and think he is more balanced than many) I also like Lou Dobbs, though he is certainly conservative, he is not a neo-con.

[VolcanoJen]

10. Bob Novak, Tucker Carlson, Anne Coulter...

... just to name a few.

[0rganism]

11. Hey, do you need any backup?

If you need help, just put a shout out.

[critical_thinker2]

12. Conservative on TV

Anne Coulter is not on TV
Chris Matthews is a Reagan democrat
Michael "Savage" Wiener is off TV (thank god)
The Entire McClaughlin Group (only half can be considered conservative)
The Beltway Boys are on Fox
Paula Zahn left Fox cause she is a liberal at heart
Charlie Rose is a liberal
Tim Russert is a democrat

how about
John Stocile(sp?)

[newyawker99]

13. Hi critical_thinker2!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[critical_thinker2]

22. Thanks! n/t

[uhhuh]

14. Charlie Rose

Puts on the Kneepads for every RWer that comes on his show. Tim Russert's voter registration has nothing to do with his love affair with the neocons.

[critical_thinker2]

19. Rose & Russert

I've seen Rose on his knees in front of many more liberals/democrats than necons. As for Russert, I find him to be an equal opprotunity basher, he's a wonk, a political junky. There is nothing Conservative about being tough on Democrats or liberals, we should embrace tough questions and answer them head on, thats the only way to win.

[Speed8098]

16. Don't you mean DINO?

Tim Russert is a democrat

Very rarely have I seen him act like a true Democrat.

[critical_thinker2]

20. True Democrat?

How should a "true democrat" journalist act? She've he be asking tough questions of both sides?

I think its a good thing that we have different opinions about what Russert's politics are, that means he's doing a good job.

[Skittles]

17. HA HA, HA HA HA HA

OMG, you poor BRAINWASHED FOOL. ZAHN IS LIBERAL? RUSSERT IS A DEMOCRAT? PULL YOUR F***ING HEAD OUT.

[critical_thinker2]

21. Examples Please..

Do you have any example's of Zahn's and Russert's conservatism?

I watch both and watched Zahn when she was on the CBS affiliate in Boston when I was growing up.

[Skittles]

28. OMG

THEY ARE F***ING BUSH WHORES. THEY NEVER MISS AN OPPORTUNITY TO WHORE FOR BUSH.

[Athletic Grrl]

29. Besides being a Grade A-1 prick,

Stossel's a Libertarian.

[JaneQPublic]

15. George Will on "This Week"...

-- Candy Crowley (or "Seniorita Dulce, as Chimpy calls her) on CNN

-- Bill Buckley on PBS' Firing Line

-- John McLaughlin and Group, e.g., Mort Kondracke, Tony Snow, etc.

-- Lou Dobbs on CNN (Didn't he leave CNN for a while to work for the Repukes, and then came back?)

-- Alan Keyes, formerly on MSNBC

[CBHagman]

24. Corrections to your list

Morton Kondracke left "The McLaughlin Group" years ago. He and Fred Barnes make up "The Beltway Boys," or they did the last time I heard about it.

I also don't regard Kondracke as an out-and-out right-wing conservative. He can be moderate to liberal on some issues, if I recall correctly.

And Tony Snow is on Fox, if I recall correctly.

Here are some people who do fall into some variation of the right wing, conservative, Republican, supply-side, and/or screaming fascist loony set:

Lawrence Kudlow
Tony Blankley
Rich Lowry
George Will
Louis Rukeyser
Laura Ingraham
Michelle Malkin

Then there are also a lot of people who are a bit harder to pin down, like Mort Zuckerman, who tends conservative but occasionally has some surprises. Even Blankley, Gingrich's former press secretary (!) and John McLaughlin occasionally take slightly unpredictable views.

[JaneQPublic]

27. Thanks!

Shows how long it's been since I've watched McLaughlin.

And yes, you're right about Tony Snow. Wrong Tony. I was thinking of Tony Blankley -- guy with the British accent, right?

[CBHagman]

31. Yes, Tony's British-born

One of many accents on that show.

[indigo32]

18. How about those dorks on CNBC

Kudlow and Kramer... they are unabashedly conservative.

[KharmaTrain]

23. Don't Forget Religious TV

$700 Club
PTL (not the Bakker version...there's a different one)
PAX (Bud Paxson is a big time GOOP money donor)
Robert Schueller
Oral Roberts
Jerry Fartwell
and the hits go on and on...

These goons reach millions of homes daily and there's no real oversight or accountability on their programming on public airwaves. Most religious broadcast station also are tax exempt...spewing RW rhetoric 24/7 and getting fat in the process.

[Tracer]

25. Don't Forget That Harpy, Kate O'Bierne.

eom.

[ReadTomPaine]

26. LOL, I hope the argument is over.... <eom>

[Athletic Grrl]

30. Brian Lamb from C-SPAN.

Worked in the Nixon administration, IIRC. I think most of the C-SPAN hosts lean right.
