Would FOX support Palin or the Republican candidate?

Would they split their talking heads between the two?

Would they ignore the two and just focus on attacking Pres. Obama?

What would FOX News do?

What would the Republicans do?

2. They would support the side that had the best chance of beating Obama
Fox is about Fox.

3. I won't be surprised at all
if Palin tries to splinter her people out into a third party. Fox heads would explode.

4. My theory is they would support the Republican Candidate while
doing their best not to cover Palin--hoping out of the
spotlight, she would lose steam.

6. Her base is the republican party who are also Fox "News" viewers. Fox would go with her.
She fits in perfectly with Hannity, Coulter, Beck, O'Reilly, those morons in the morning, now Dobbs.

7. I think it would depend on who was running as the candidate
on the republican ticket. If they like them, Huckabee, or someone like that they would use all their resources for them.

8. Cut her off at the knees. Fox would protect corporate interests over teabagger interests n/t

10. I'd be pleased to see FOX and other pro-Puke entities be forced to
choose and divide themselves horribly in the process.

13. You underestimate them. Fox is a master of doublethink.
It's kind of a prerequisite for being a conservative.
