Opinions/Editorials Title: Just When You Thought Fox Couldn’t Get Any Worse… Meghan McCain, the political scion who has won public fame as a blogger, commentator and TV-show host, will join Fox News Channel as a contributor, Variety has learned. A spokesperson for the network confirmed the hire. McCain is expected to contribute to the network’s primetime and daytime programming. McCain, the oldest daughter of U.S. Senator John McCain, a Republican, joins as Fox News Channel, like other news outlets, heads into a frenzied pre-season for the 2016 election for U.S. President. Already, more than a dozen different candidates for the Republican nomination have thrown their hat into the ring. McCain, who has identified as a Republican in the past, could well offer the viewpoint of a different member of that political party: one hailing from the millennial generation. She has in the past championed gay rights and come out against anti-immigration legislation, and has publicly challenged commentators like Ann Coulter and Laura Ingraham. She has in her writings expressed ambivalence about Sarah Palin, the former Fox News contributor who ran for U.S. Vice President alongside her father, and admiration for Hillary Clinton, who is now vying for the Democratic nomination for U.S. President. McCain most recently was a host for “TakePart Live,” a talk-show on cable’s Pivot network that urged viewers to get involved with various social causes. She was also the focus of “Raising McCain,” a Pivot talk show that took her on the road. Both were cancelled. Look for the “political scion” to meet the same fate on Fox, but enough with the nepotism, already. On both sides. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest I'm not here to bash FOX, I'm glad it's out there. But I find myself watching FNC a lot less since Zero was re-elected. After that disaster, I basically quit O'Reilly and Hannity. Only watched "The Five" After Beckel's departure (and the awful Herr-aldo), I quit "The Five." (Beckel was an old-school liberal. While I didn't agree with him much, I enjoyed listening to him.) I've detected a discernable, though gradual, shift to the Left at FNC McClown's spawn signing on only firms up my opinion.
#2. To: Rufus T Firefly (#0) Near as I can tell her only qualifications are she is a multi-millionare celebrity that parties down with the other multi-millionaire celebrities,and thinks she has enough money to insulate her from the reality of what she promotes for thee and me. And she is the daughter of John McLunatic,a known whore and anti-America scumbag. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012) #3. To: Rufus T Firefly (#0) Heh. The only fame Meghan McCain has won is her public air-head fame. In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act. George Orwell #4. To: Rufus T Firefly (#0)
