Well, I tuned in fair and balanced Fox News tonight so that I could get the fair and balanced analysis of the biggest news event of the day - maybe of the month -- Libby's declaration about who authorized the Leak.

I started at 6:00 with good old Brit Hume. I thought Brit would dig into this pretty good. No. By my stopwatch 1 minute, 32 seconds. Well, when the "Fox All-Stars" come on at 9:40, they wil certainly get into this issue. Nope. Seven minutes on the immigration deal and six minutes on Cynthia McKinney. Nada on Libby's startling expose.

Well, I thought, When Brit comes back to do his closing of the hour he will touch on it. Nope...he used his closing to talk about Cynthia McKinney's hairstyle.

It's now 7:00. Maybe Shepard Smith will give it some analysis. Seven minutes into his show he does, yes, one minute and forty-five seconds on the biggest event of the day.

MSNBC gave it a solid hour plus on Chris Matthews. CNN looked like it was giving it plenty of analysis on Wolfie's show. They still seemed to have enough time to deal with McKinney.

Why would Fox virtually ignore this major story?

Is Cynthia McKinney's hairstyle really worthy of Brit's analysis when the Libby story is not? Which is likely to have importance to the Country in six month's time?
