Um, Kathryn, I beg to differ with you on the sartorial choices of female Fox
News presenters. Given the state of our culture, even the furthest reaches
of this phenomenon still count as demure. Personally, I watch Fox News for
the news coverage (which is at least as good as anyone else’s) and the
comment (which really is, I agree, fair and balanced), not for the skin
show. I gotta confess, though, that given the choice between news and
comment delivered by (a) a very pretty woman in a bold-but-not-quite-saucy
outfit, and (b) a woman starched up like my mortgage broker, I’ll go for (a)
every time. It’s a guy thing. Though I really, really admire O’Reilly’s
tie knots, too.
