What A Coincidence! Fox News Breaks Away From Sotomayor Confirmation Hearings After Last Republican Concludes Questioning

Reported by Ellen - July 15, 2009 -

I reported yesterday about Fox News' predilection for showing the Republican questioners of Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. Today, the special coverage with Bret Baier and Megyn Kelly ended as soon as Sen. Tom Coburn, described by Kelly as "the last Republican," concluded his questioning. She promised they'd return later for questions from Senators Specter and Franken, thereby implicitly acknowledging they'd be skipping over the three Democratic senators in-between (Whitehouse, Klobuchar and Kaufman).
