If you watched last night's show, you'll know we ran this segment about assorted Republicans who serve as Fox News contributors. Of particular interest was Elaine Chao, the Labor Secretary in the Bush/Cheney administration.
In our segment, we noted that Chao "works at Fox News as an on-air contributor," in addition to her role as a national chair for Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, which began on Aug. 2.
As recently as three weeks ago, on Aug. 29, Chao was introduced on the air as a "Fox News contributor."
As of right now, her official bio at the Heritage Foundation describes her as "Fox News contributor," and her official bio on her own website described her as a "Fox News contributor."
This afternoon, however, Fox News said Chao is no longer with the network. Her last day at Fox, the network told us, was Aug. 29. Someone probably ought to let Chao know.

Call Romney he enjoys firing people.

Funny listening to Republicans complain about Leftist Media when Faux news has their own in house Right Wing Shills.
Considering I live in Ohio, and one of those shills is now my Governor, and I doubt he would have gotten to be Governor without the face time on Faux, and learn how to manipulate the media, well, it just didn't work out for us.
Most of the people I know who voted for Kasich now realize they were manipulated, and they are not happy.

You know, people should be smart enough to see propoganda for what it is. If Ohioans were duped by FOX, then good enough for them. The liberal media is doing their darnedest to reelect Obama. MSNBC should be getting campaign dollars for working for him. They campaigned for him in 2008 and they are campaigning for him now. Fox is the only station that gives a balance to what all other news stations are spouting. If you watch all liberal news, you are uninformed. You should choose to watch all sides of the issues so that you can make an informed decision on your vote. Why watch a station that shows only what you want to hear. Listen and watch others so that maybe you might pick up something different and get a little different slant on the subjects. The media only recognizes one party and its policies.
Do you know if people stop listening to Rush and stop watching Faux Fake and BS Gnuz their IQ goes up by 10 in just 24 hours?
jes33, that is very good advice. Try taking it.
Propaganda in it's lowest form - that's FAUX NOISE! All the gossip and innuendo that's (un)fit for a real news network....
Grab aholt of that old Webster's, and look up "incest". There's pictures of a whole passel of folks, and it ain't got nothin' to do with s e x.
Don't forget Chao is also Mitch McConnell's wife.
Disgusted, ewwwwwwe. I never thought anyone would be so self loathing as to bed a turtle like creature destined to ruin the world's economy.
Mitch has to be something like 70ish, right? And he found her on craigslist? ewwwwwwe! Match made in heaven and unacceptable in Kentucky, way to go, Mitch! eeewwwwwwwe!
Egads DWIA!!!!! I Did not know that
once again the gop struggle to keep up with their own propaganda , and when to eliminate it , or distribute it , or when to deny it , or when to affirm it , in short , the gop romney campaign
You people make me sick!!!! Get a job and pay your taxes!
Flagged.
That was Ann Romney.
Those payroll taxes count as income taxes?
Chao is indeed Mitch McConnell's present wife... the second one.
The first one got away... must have been that wild night with Harry Reid.
No?
Look it up.
I did look it up...thank you for making the suggestion.

The trolls are furious. Mitt's really let them down.
Choa wife of McConnell? Fellow at Heritage Foundation? HUM! Heritage Foundation as i part of the Kock Foundation Associate Program! HUM????????
WOW!! Everyone here is drinking the Obama Kool-Aid. If you are one of the 47% currently receiving US Government aid, and have absolutely zero ambitions for you and your childrens' future (i.e., everyone else should pay for your to watch TV and eat junk food) then vote Obama. If you have ANY desire to work or happen to know someone who works now (and pays taxes) then vote Romney. It really is that simple. What do you want for the future of the United States of America?
Willard can have the job, since he won't be president. I think maybe Terrible Ted Nugent can hold the desk down until Nov........
Mike in Georgia. Isn't that in the former Soviet Union? You speak and write very good English considering you come from that part of the world. It's ashamed you have all your facts wrong. My son works three jobs and was in the National Guard (spent 2 tours of duty in Iraq) He has a working wife and three children and he DOES NOT pay income tax because his family income falls below the Poverty level.
Hey Mike in Georgia......I see your state is one of the top ten states of percentage of residents who don't pay any federal income tax.......and yet your state votes red. So if the Republicans take control of the government and cut all the programs that people depend on who is going to take care of the people of Georgia? Or will you just encourage them to move to a blue state where people care about those less fortunate and try to lift them up through the hard times? That's how Mitt lowered his unemployment numbers as gov of Massachusettes......people left the state because they couldn't find work. Another funny thing, my brother did 20 in the military and he told me when he got out and got a civilian job it was the first time he had ever paid income taxes. So are our men and women serving part of the 47%? What about seniors on social security who worked their butts off their whole life and now don't pay taxes on their fixed incomes. Do they need to get off there butts and get a job? The number of people who don't pay income taxes is not equal to the number of people collecting government handouts. Don't blame them, blame the tax system. There are also people at the top that have good enough lawyers and accountants that they have no effective tax liability. Why don't we put more energy into creating a fair tax system instead of attacking people.
Chau got kicked upstairs. Rupert Murdoch recently named her to join the Newscorp Board of Directors, where she will be invaluable in rubber stamping Rupe's use of this public corporation's resources as a personal piggy bank for his right wing causes.

The article didn't say that she is Mitch McConnell's beard.
