I watched Fox News for five hours last night

As Obama's victory became undeniable, Brit Hume moved beyond grief and anger with Karl Rove. And Juan Williams justified his existence.

    Equal Time

    I too viewed Fox more than I ever have; 100% actually, since I never watch it.

    Regardless, it was hilarious to see the corpulent Karl Rove and the funereal Chris Wallace solemnly discuss their mortal fear of the "impending" reinstatement of the equal time rule for broadcasting, which would "decimate" right wing talk radio.

    Brilliant stuff!
