A prime time show should beat one that starts at 6 a.m. :Crazy

That's exactly what I've done

I watch when I can but this show isn't for her. She is trying too hard to fit in but it comes off as boring to the viewer. My guess is she stays on thru the election, gets pregnant again (I'm sure she is going to have another child) and they look for a new co-host. She needs to be on a show that is a little more on the lighter side and perhaps with a female co-host. Yes she is dressing conservative but that is only half the issue. She is a bit over her head at this position.

When she first got to Fox she was dressing conservatively. She switched it up and went shorter with the hem lines, but now she seems to be back dressing conservatively. In her heart of hearts I think she prefers a more conservative look, but that's not what brings eyes to the TV.

Although I'm much more likely to watch any of FNC's shows than the other news stations, I can tell you that I'm watching F&F more now than before. Even though I liked EH, the reason I watch more now is Ainsley. I do flip channels some, but I do that with everything, and on F&F at least, its quite a bit less than before. By contrast, I never watch the F&F Weekend show, except to make a quick check to see if someone like Sandra Smith is in as a fill-in, in which case I might stick around. I don't know what it is about her, but I don't like Anna and will not watch at all if she's on. Otherwise, I usually either watch HLN's weekend show or skip the news entirely.

I prefer Ainsley over E.D. Hill, Gretchen Carlson, and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Having her and Heather Nauert on the show is always a treat imo.

I don't care for the chemistry in either F&F or F&FW. Get rid of the bookends would be great. Until that changes I am not a watcher.

I have found myself watching less and less of FOX or FBN. I try to catch Maria in the morning but other than that I don't watch it that much nor any other news station except the local news down here in Boca. I kind of miss the FOX slogan "Fair and balanced We'll show you both sides and then you decide" that they pushed years back.

It just irritates the hell out of me when FOX splits the screen into thirds one third for the actual show and two thirds looking at an empty microphone for an upcoming news conference for half hours at a time.

Why did Megan or Hemmer need to be in Orlando this week? When all there was was a back drop of emergeny vehicles red lights in the studio.

This is what happens when you get old. :Doh

Maybe they finally realized they weren't really fair and balanced? :mrgreen:

Because that's what they do: report live from the scene where something happened hours or days ago. :jetserl

In Boston one station (WHDH) started doing that years ago and the other stations followed suit probably because they were afraid of losing viewers. :Coyote

They need to do a segment where someone replaces Ainsley on the couch, then they show Ainsley bound and gagged backstage.. Like they did with Alisyn Camarata a few years back.
