>Fox has nightly prime time commentary centered around confirmed right-winger Hannity with confirmed left-winger Colmes. They are bookended by closet conservative O'Reilly and closet liberal Van Susteren. Each show interviews an equal number of liberal and conservative pundits each night.

Yes, but Alan Colmes was hand-picked by Sean Hannity because he's a wuss. Alan regularly gets beaten down by the right-wing gets, and Hannity beats up on the left-wing guests. I agree about van Susteren being a liberal, as well. But, if you look at the rest of the lineup outside of the 8-11 block, you'll see a different story. From one of my other posts:

>Also, look at their lineup of hosts... I'm an avid watcher and can only think of three liberal hosts: Greta van Susteren (more of a centrist), Geraldo Rivera (most liberals don't take him seriously), and Alan Colmes (biggest pussy of all time, and supposedly handpicked by Sean Hannity to be his opponent.) Contrast that with the conservatives that come readily to mind: Steve Doocy, E.D. Conahey, Brian Kilmeade, Tony Snow, Brit Hume, Bill O'Reilly, John Kasich, Sean Hannity, Brenda Buttner, Neal Cavuto, John Gibson... I could go on.
