There are rare occasions when she exhibits some semblance of journalistic insight. Mostly, her patter is devoid of facts, usable information, or critical thinking. For me, she is a waste of time. I have certainly seen her show or her subbing gigs. That is what I base my opinion on. Have no fear, I am one of those who no longer watch her. Curious as to your rather intense defense of her. She is young perhaps she will improve or become another Andrea Mitchell. Carry on and remain calm for as a wise man once said, “Katy Tur is far better and many levels higher than anyone at Fox.”

Maybe her critics are taking their queue from tRump! yortsed snacilbuper Jun 2018 #8
