Sarah Palin's new show, 'Real American Stories' (Thu., 10PM ET on FNC), premiered last night, showcasing some of the everyday heroes who live in our midst.Whether you love Palin or hate her, it's always a good thing to shine a light on the people who put themselves in harm's way to help someone else -- like one nursing student who doused the flames on a driver who'd been in an accident.
Will you watch Palin's new show?

Brit Hume has some advice for Tiger Woods
by Bob Sassone, posted Jan 4th 2010 11:27AM
Fox News Channel's Brit Hume gave Tiger Woods a little bit of advice yesterday. It wasn't about his golf swing or what media strategy to embrace to get back on the good side of the public or even just a general "hey, keep it in your pants, pal." Hume said that the only way that Woods can be truly forgiven is if he changes his religion.

Glenn Beck throws a guest off his show

Glenn Beck had an ACORN spokesman on his show last night, and got into an argument with him about voter registration and possible fraud. Beck has the right to throw out anyone, it's his show after all. Though the analogy of the Burger King bather is kinda out of nowhere. (After the jump, the aftermath). Beck also says that the guest asked a show producer out on a date after this happened!
Ladies and gentlemen, the best of Shepard Smith
by Bob Sassone, posted Apr 23rd 2009 3:27PM
Shep Smith is one of my favorite people on television. He's always entertaining, informative, fair, and (yes) balanced! He's also a great source for those priceless "live news" moments that make for great video fodder. Here are a few of my favorites, including a new one where the F-bomb is launched (PopEater has even more Shep goodness).
Election Night: Fox News (Part 1)
by Jason Hughes, posted Nov 4th 2008 9:56PM

FOX NEWS - AMERICA'S ELECTION HQ. Not dramatic enough? Maybe we could spruce it up a bit. "Fox News - For Election Coverage that's Guaranteed Right!" Even some of their analysts were reluctant to think that the country could go to the left of center.
Fox News Channel is a part of the new media, running streams of election data along the bottom, including a static corner box tracking projected electoral votes. We get two different bits of election data next to that, changing about every 7 seconds. Above that is an Alert bar with text data "Fox News Projects John McCain has won Kentucky." And, of course, they kept it scrolling through the commercials, too.
FOX working on their own Daily Show?
by Annie Wu, posted Jun 25th 2006 11:33AM
According to this article, FOX News is working on a new pilot styled after The Daily Show. I thought April Fool's Day was months ago?A tipster said that the program is called Watch This Right Now and is "an absolutely terrible rip-off of Daily Show" with a "music and video montage" and "mouth replacement of known news figures" (the latter sounds a lot like one of Conan O'Brien's gags). Conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham reportedly filmed something for the show. Uh-oh.
I guess since Comedy Central took on The O'Reilly Factor and found success (The Colbert Report), FOX deemed it appropriate to take on TDS. I doubt it'll make it past the pilot.
Brit Hume and SpongeBob battle for ratings
by Richard Keller, posted Mar 21st 2006 3:29PM
According to Paul
Bedard at U.S. News &
World Report, Bret Hume of Fox News Channel's Special Report is going after SpongeBob
SquarePants. No, it's not about SpongeBob's alleged latent homosexuality.
That's actually on next week's show.
Actually, what it's about is ratings. Hume's Special Report, which has been around since 1998, is the number four basic cable show in the 6 p.m. slot and the number two news program behind The O'Reilly Factor. His long-term goal is to move up the ratings ladder for his time slot. However, networks like Nickelodeon, home of Mr. SpongePants, stand in his way.
Maybe Mr. Hume should do an expose on Mr. SpongePants, the deplorable working conditions at The Krusty Crab and what exactly is in a Krabby Patty?
