I agree with Kevin about the national newscast (I don't care as much
about the extra hour of primetime - the way things are now it just
looks like Fox was anticipating NBC). As a devout Democrat and
unapologetic liberal, I would watch a nightly news broadcast on the
Fox Network in a way that I just can not bring myself to do on Fox
News. This would also give Fox News a chance to demonstrate that there
really is a difference between their straight news operation and the
money-making infotainment they rely on so much on FNC.

I like to think that if Fox News started building a credible,
reputable news operation through a nightly newscast, it would have
some moderating effect on the nonsense on their mothership.
