Colmes: 'I'll Be Fair' on Radio
Alan Colmes, the left-leaning half of "Hannity and Colmes" on Fox News Channel, returns to the radio as host of "Fox Live with Alan Colmes," which can be heard on 10 stations, eight of which are in the top 50 radio markets, reports MediaWeek.
Colmes will broadcast from the Fox News radio studio in Manhattan, and will employ the standard format of newsmaker interviews and audience participation by way of phone calls, as well as breaking news updates by Fox correspondents.
The insightful, bespectacled talkmeister is hosting the very first syndicated radio program for Fox News, and will jump immediately from the "Hannity and Colmes" TV show right into his radio broadcast weeknights from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m.
He's a liberal, but Colmes says his object isn't to espouse one viewpoint over another, but simply " ... to satisfy the needs of my audience. I'm a broadcaster, not a political mouthpiece."
He believes in Fox News' tagline, "Fair and Blanced," adding, "An ideologically based network totally disrespects what the medium should be."
If only some of the other networks had a little fairness and balance of their own.
