Christiane Amanpour on CNN.

Wherever she goes, you can be sure that something will happen.

1. BILL O'REILLY

2. GERALDO (now that he reports the news as opposed to trying to make the news)

Hiring Geraldo from CNBC was such a coup for FOX...the guy is certifiably nuts! I can't think of a single place he would be unwilling to go to. I normally hop around a bit between CNN, MSNBC and FOX but when Geraldo's on, it stays on FOX.

BOB HARRIS,

Yeah. Like So Cal mentioned, If he had a shot I beleive he would kill or capture Osama himself.

As for certifiably Nuts. I've kind of gotten used to that on this board from reading TOM@HTR's posts. HEHE.

Geraldo was so traumatized by the 9/11 attacks......he was determined to go over to Afganistan and report on the hunt for bin Laden.
I remember Geraldo back in the 1970's when he was doing, I believe 20/20 on ABC. He uncovered a scandal.......that was never really pursued by anyone.
Los Angeles Easter Seals. They stole all the donations, millions, none of it went to crippled children.
The shocking part to me was that one of the board of directors of Easter Seals was the track VET at Santa Anita....Dr. Edmonson.
Santa Anita used to have charity days during the meet for a week.
Guess what one of the charities was? You got it.....Easter Seals.
We had a benefit fund raiser for a crippled girl who worked at Santa Anita.....all the jockeys and trainers put on a baseball game. I helped collect donations from racetrack people.
Guess who the ONLY guy was who refused to give me even a dollar? Dr. Edmonson.
Bobby Frankel gave us a very generous donation, threatening us not to tell ANYONE he gave it.....he likes being a BAD GUY. LOL
Anyway, I like Geraldo.....and I hope he kills bin Laden!

I jus hope we never have to watch a special when Hiraldo finds Osama's cave - it could be Al Capones vault Part II!
Hey, that would be funny if they opened up the cave and found Al's treasure!

I like O'Reilly and Carville. Mostly watch Fox. BBC is good for world news.

come on folks. Geraldo is an idiot. Let's see..he went to Afghanistan after the Taliban had been ousted. He has shown up in every place there has been a confrontation..after it is over. The guy is all talk and no walk. There are lots of reporters, you don't even get to know there names, that live right in the mix.
These are the real reporters.

Not this fluffy friggin gigalo.

I think Geraldo is just the best at playing to the camera. He takes it to another level. In that arena he is the best. As an unscripted on the scene reporter, there is no better. I don't know about him getting on the scene late, after the fireworks are over? But I hated him during the Clinton-Monica debacle because he just defended the first felon to the hilt. I did watch him on the night the miners in PA were rescued and he was incredible. He did a great job. I think he thinks better on his feet than most of the others. :cool:
