Interesting! And what's more interesting, is that in this particular post, the things he complains that FOX does... are things done by the other networks too... but he never complains about them. Selective outrage, my friend, makes his point less genuine... and just more "I hate FOX, and everything they do" foot stomping.

FOX is bad... everything they do is bad. *rolls eyes* Tell me, have you ever liked anything that FOX has done? Or are you so consumed in your hatred of all things FOX, that all you see is negative after negative. I notice you only appear on this blog to post negative stories (that rarely have anything to do with the topic at large) about FOX. Clearly, you're very open minded. Oh, and Mike... I guess you haven't been reading Arthur's responses to SHANE of late. "Shut up" is now a common phrase (unfortunately) appearing on this blog. Yes, Harry… FOX is bad… everything they do is bad. *rolls eyes*

For Fox Business, it is "hunting season" and they are indeed hunting the NBC Peacock. So far, the network seems to have the "new network smell" and is stiff. The presentation is a little wooden, but Eric Bolling does make it easier. In time, the Fox Business will work itself out and be looser in its presentation and will get into a groove.
