A debate so “healthy” it makes you sick

During the October 28 edition of her Fox News show, Greta Van Susteren purported to host “a healthy debate” about health care reform.

During the first 35 minutes of the show, Van Susteren interviewed Rep. Mike Pence (R-IN), Sen. John Kyl (R-AZ), and -- for 10 minutes -- Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to discuss health care reform. (Van Susteren also interviewed Fox News contributor and former GOP Sen. Rick Santorum and Jeff Birnbaum of The Washington Times about issues not related to health care reform.)

So what, you might ask, makes it a “healthy debate”? The on-screen text, of course. And Fox News graphics wouldn't lie.

To think Fox News has been criticized for being the communications arm of the Republican Party.
