Fox News vs. Fred Thompson

By Marc Ambinder

Aug 24 2007, 11:45 AM ET Comment

It's always reassuring when others noticed something we thought we were the only ones to perceive.

In this case, it's that the news producers and writers at Fox News don't seem very enamoured with Fred Thompson. It's not Carl Cameron -- his reports about Republican candidates are fair and compelling -- it's in the way the network selects its stories, the language that its anchors use, and even in the way producers put together their stories.

Wonder whether Fox News veteran Jim Mills, Thompson's press secretary, agrees.
