there s a sense when you re involved in an effort even though there s a rivalry there s also a camaraderie that comes with it and i think everyone has the same objective which is we want to have a new president in 2013 and i think at this point that s really the focus. i want to get some substance of rick santorum but a fox executive told the l.the l.a. they didn t do the same thing to governor palin or huckabee because any see no evidence they are actively taking steps to explore. do you think they ll run ask. i don t know. i don t know why fox differentiated whether there s been conversations. they didn t talk to me and ask me whether i m running or not. it wasn t something we had a conversation about. i don t know whether other people have had conversations and so all i can say is i think they made their call and i respect it. what would rick santorum s place in a republican field be? help me understand it. one prospective rival would be mitchell daniels who is a social cons
through wthis whole thing, hey, it s just a business. well, people of that caliber talent, they want to go where they can love their work and work with people that appreciate them. and that s the big advantage that cable tv has never network. network, at the end of the day, still with its lower audience numbers, has to please a much bigger crowd than cable ever has to. look at what conan is coming into. he s going to follow family guy and the office. you couldn t ask for a better audience than the lead-in he s going to get from those two shows. if he would have been hat fox, who knows what his lead-in would have been. a rather dramatic development at fox news where sean hannity was yanked back by fox executive. he was going to do his program in cincinnati before a live audience. we ve seen him out on the road appearing with sarah palin and michele bachmann before these live audiences. but this was a tea party event where the tea party organizers were charging as much as $100 fo
organizers to use sean hannity s television program to profit from, your move tea party. quote, despite knowing this was not true, fox caved. help us chris wallace. who can we trust. i don t know that sean s in trouble, but i think that there s people are look at fox, how do we avoid being taken advantage of. maybe the real problem is that a very senior fox executive was asked about the tea party just ten days ago and had this to say. your business network host told network viewers they needed to visit the tea party website to buy merchandise and your graphics said fox day tea parties. is it appropriate for a news network to engage in that much politics? no, i don t think we should be supporting the tea party or any other party. but i i d like to investigate what you re saying before i condemn anyone. investigation underway,

staff, a former fox executive who was involved with cover ups for roger ails was probably the most eyebrow raising moment. by the way, he brought it up in the conversation about pocahontas and elizabeth warren. let s just play that for our viewers. let s say i m debating pocahontas, right? i promise you i ll do this. you know those little kits they sell on television for $2, learn your heritage. the guy says i was born in scotland and it turns out he was born in puerto rico. okay, that s good. the guy says i was born in germany. he wasn t born in germany. he was born someplace else. i m going to get one of those kits and in the middle of the debate when she proclaims she s of indian heritage because her mother said she has high cheekbones that s her only evidence we will take that little kit but we be to do it gently. because in the me too
