WTF are you going to do about it Murdoch?
" Despite News Corp. Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch's recent statement that he didn't think Fox News "should be supporting the Tea Party," Fox News hosts and contributors are participating in more than a dozen tea party events this week. The Fox Newsers are giving speeches, partnering with tea party planners, and in the case of Sean Hannity, taping a show that financially benefits a local tea party.
The following is a list of Fox News contributors and hosts who have appeared or are scheduled to appear at various tea party events this week:
Host Sean Hannity: Cincinnati, OH event on April 15. Those wishing to be a "part of the studio audience" have to pay $5 -- $100 to the Cincinnati Tea Party. Hannity has repeatedly promoted the event on his show.
