Barry:

I meant the national Fox News channel. I couldn't tell whether it was 
liberal or conservative, and don't consider those terms to have any 
meaning anyway. It was merely irrational.

The local Fox affiliate is not bad, although I might be biased since 
they have done a few pieces about my forest research. They also air 
stories about me when I do certain things, such as getting trapped in a 
forest fire in the wilderness for a couple of days. When I finally got 
out of the wilderness, Fox 9, the local Fox affiliate was the first to 
stick a microphone in front of me.
