Fox Business Eying Lou Dobbs
Fox Business Network is eying CNN host Lou Dobbs, the New York Times' Brian Stelter reports.

Stelter merely mentions the news midway through his article on the ongoing battle between the White House and Fox News:

Certainly, Fox continues to aggressively bolster its on-air talent, most recently with the hiring of John Stossel, the libertarian investigative journalist from ABC News, for its spin-off channel, Fox Business. The business channel is also keen on another administration critic, Lou Dobbs, who met for dinner with Mr. Ailes last month, according to two people with direct knowledge of the meeting.

They are going to destroy themselves soon because they are reaching "critical mass of teh stoopid."

4. So which piece of shit are they going to flush to make room for Dobbs?
By the way, they're welcome to him. The only question I have is what took so long?

5. Fox News has yet to make any kind of impact against CNBC...
I think Bloomburg is doing better...

Latest ratings in April show about 40k watch the cable channel.

7. Too bad CNN would never consider a true liberal to take Dobb's place.
:eyes:

You'd think they'd note Rachel's ratings & give a liberal a shot, but I won't hold my breath.

8. Why would a "business" channel want a show that's nothing but racist bullshit rants for an hour?
Go for it Lou. Though I expect CNN to replace you with someone almost as bad.
