Thom Hartmann: "What happened to my appearance on John Kasich's Faux show?

[Bozita]

Kasich's show airs at 8pm EDT Saturday.

On Friday, Faux called to tell him that the segment with talk show hosts was being cancelled due to "breaking news."

Hmmmm...

1. They knew "breaking news" was coming?

Hmmmmm....

2. I taped the show.

It was slop. I was really pissed that Thom wasn't on.

3. Thom's knowledge..

..would make their heads explode. They can't handle facts.

[benddem]

4. Didn't their

correspondent in Aruba have some breaking news of significant :sarcasm: import?

[Poiuyt]

5. I was very disappointed

I've been waiting to see Thom debate some of the gasbags for a long time. I guess Fox realized that they wouldn't be able to stand up to him.

[Bozita]

6. Agreed .... "Breaking News", my ass!

7. I'd love to know how much stock BushCheney/Carlyle have in Fox/Newscorp

News Corp. Corporate Timeline
1910s | 1930s | 1950s | 1960s | 1970s | 1980s | 1990s | 2000-present

Molded under the watchful eye of Rupert Murdoch, News Corp. continues to evolve and serve as a model for the modern vertically integrated media conglomerate. Aided by the acquisition of 20th Century film studio, News Corp. went from primarily a newspaper company in Australia and England to an influential force in American media. The Fox Network broke ground in the late 1980s as the first successful broadcast network to break through against the powerful Big 3. Recently, viewership for its Fox News Network surpassed the once formidable CNN. This proved to be another sign that American viewers favor News Corp.'s irreverent style.
