Brian Stelter of the New York Times writes for Monday’s paper about how Fox Business Network now has two shows with a Libertarian bent, including a new one that started Saturday featuring Judge Andrew Napolitano, and quotes liberal commentator Bill Press as saying that the moves are designed to make Fox Business “a second propaganda channel.”
“Fox did not respond to his comments.
“Among other recent changes, Fox Business has added Charlie Gasparino, formerly of CNBC, and Gerri Willis, formerly of CNN, to support its business news regimen. Fox Business says ‘Freedom Watch’ will address business topics, too, like economic liberties and consumer rights.”

A spokeswoman stated, “If anyone is familiar with being a ratings killer it’s Bill Press who hasn’t been able to maintain a steady hosting job on television since being dumped by CNN in 2002 and having his show canceled by MSNBC in 2003.”

I've boycotted all Fox News channels for years. But I have become a die-hard Fox Business viewer ever since they brought in John Stossel and began interviewing libertarians like Ron Paul. It's about time for us libertarians get our own channel, it's only fair since you NeoCons have Fox and the Liberals have MSNBC.
