“I don’t suspect Fox News will suspend any of its ‘news’ people anytime soon.”

Today’s L.A. Times letters to the editor, Part 1:

Punishing the host

Re “Suspension ignites debate,” Nov. 6

This shows the difference between NBC standards and Fox News standards.

What Keith Olbermann gave to Democratic candidates is pocket change compared to all the free publicity and cheerleading the Fox News entertainers gave to candidates supported by the ” tea party.” I don’t suspect Fox News will suspend any of its “news” people anytime soon.

That is especially appalling since Karl Rove, the “architect” of the failed George W. Bush presidency, is allowed to be the middle man in the scheme to funnel tens of millions of dollars from anonymous business interests to Republican candidates.

Something is out of whack here.

    If Fox “News” were to suspend all of the on air talent that either is fundraising for themselves, or other candidates, there would be several hours of dead air a day.
