Unfortunately, what you "notice" from your right-wing perspective doesn't count as evidence. There isn't anything to call attention *to*. When folks have actually researched this myth using Lexis/Nexis transcripts, it's been found to be false. It's hard to do a search for, but I'll keep trying. Smirks and eye-rolling, BTW, does happen on Fox, but not on respectable news outlets.
