#1 Perhaps now she understands 'nuance'.

#2 If it wasn't for being a Fox News contributor, she would be useless to society.

#3 Well, Fox just Harfed up a hair-ball.

Why can't/don't the other networks pick up real conservatives for "balance"? Is Fox owned by a liberal too? /rhet

#4 My decision to cancel my DirecTV and WSJ subscriptions last year looks smarter all the time. I take in no Murdoch owned media products exactly because of this sort of staffing problem.

#5 Looking forward to seeing the Harf in a brightly colored club dress.

#6 Contributor? WTF can she possibly contribute? Will Retired Rear Admiral John F. Kirby be joining FOX soon as well? Who will be left to drive the clown car? Is this an attempt to make Bob Beckel and Geraldo Rivera look centrist? I have so many questions.

#7 It will be pitifully fun to watch the debate between herself and Tucker Carlson.

Not even a fair match, unless Carlson is given a dictionary and forced to respond in Swahili.

#9 When I do watch TV news, I watch Fox. I do that once every four years, to catch the returns on Election Night.

Other than that, I haven't watched ANY news on TV in more than 20 years. CNN, MSNBC, and the other lamestream media spew out 100% liberal garbage; Fox spews out "only" 50% liberal garbage in accordance with their "fair and balanced" nonsense.

I'll start watching TV news again when there's a TV channel that spews out ZERO percent liberal garbage.

#11 I suspect Dave D. has it about right.

#12 Am I recalling correctly that the Murdoch sons have taken over running things from their father? But perhaps this is only to provide balance for the Nigel Farage hire.

#13 She was a spokesdroid paid to say stupid things. We should remember that before we start mocking her. Which I shall do now: Harf! Harf! Harf harf!

If she goes with the Naughty Librarian look, it might be watchable. You can always turn the sound off.

#14 Her pear shape and pea brain make her perfect for TV gabfests.

#15 I get that the Murdock boys want to widen the leftards they put on the various commentary shows to continue the meme of fair and balanced, but Harf is actually not the kind of clever foil they hope to offer up. She is not clever or quick or well informed or funny. She is little more than a slow target drone, and hence, kind of sad.

#21 It's easier to just go here: Link to article with image and scroll down to see the image that Blossom Unains5562 tried to link to.

The website indeed does not allow deep linking, although they do allow linking to the article in question.
