In reply to the discussion: What do you think of Dennis Kucinich joining Fox News? [View all]quinnox
(20,600 posts)66. Probably a good move
Fox gets someone who will help their ratings, because Kucinich is one known to make fireworks and doesn't back down from his liberal views, and Kucinich gets a good way to make money plus a high profile position so he can run for political office again when the opportunity arises.
I would like to see Kucinich try for the Senate next time where he would have more clout and power, rather than back to the House.

Multiple: Fox News wants him for ratings; he wants it for the moolah. He's also an extremist.....

Fox usually hires pushovers to play the liberals. So this could be a change.

Kucinich on Fox? It wasn't reported by the Onion so I'm taking it at face value.

Makes sense. His career has always been more celebrity than public service or legislative force.
