Lanny Davis joins FNC…
The Washington Post’s Howard Kurtz scoops that Lanny Davis is joining FNC as a contributor…
Fox News’s newest contributor, to be announced today, may surprise the liberal crowd: former Clinton White House lawyer Lanny Davis.
“Fox has always treated me with respect and given me a chance to express my point of view,” Davis says of the network that the Democratic candidates refused to grant a debate out of concern that it favors Republicans. He will be a frequent guest, along with such Fox stalwarts as Karl Rove and Newt Gingrich.

Oh, good grief! First Mike Huckabee and now Lanny Davis.
What is going on over at FNC? Things are not looking up.
I am a devoted fan, but, guys, give me a break!

FNC needed a liberal to match the gravitas of conservative Karl Rove and also somebody to counter Dick Morris’ hatred of Hillary.
Good pickup!

I agree, TTC… good BALANCE!

Ditto. And he’s right – every time I’ve ever seen him on FNC, he has been treated well, as if his opinion mattered. And it does.

I don’t think Lanny is a liberal anymore. He’s furious with the DNC for not crowning Hillary the nominee. He’ll do just fine at Fox as he takes shots and swipes at Obama.

Missy,
Of course Lanny was treated well at FNC.
That was obvious. No question about it.
But, contrary to your statement, IMO, Lanny’s opinion does not matter to everyone.
