1. Isn't that Glenn Beck picture from when he was with HLN?
And isn't that Laurie Dhue with Doocey? She's hot, but whatever became of her? She was on Fox, and CNN, and MSNBC at various times, but I don't recall seeing her for a long time.

4. you didn't get anything wrong
If I recall correctly, Beck was griping how horrible the U.S. health care system was back then. Later on, on Fox, he called it the best system in the world.

7. Fox News moved the desk
that was one of their first big things that they did. They got blondes in heels and that brought the old men in...after that they just drilled the latest BIG LIE into their heads while they were watching softsoftcore "news"
