I think Fox News is &**$#****!!! I would not dishonor a pig by comparing it to Fox!

I think all this guy thinks about is eating anyway. Last time he called us "cannibals"!

We really need to get G on the ED show. I asked ED on his facebook and sent some emails.

You are onto something there.

Fox will eat road apples tonight. The Democrat just took back the Republican Seat!

HUMMM!! WILL DO!!

Gregg has done a yeoman's job of fighting for the unemployed. I've seen him on several interviews over the past couple of years, and he really knows how to articulate the facts. The interviewers, no matter how hostile they may be towards him, simply cannot stump him.

KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT GREGG ROSEN. MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR CAUSE!!

That's right - they can't stump him on the facts, Gregg has them and they don't. When they are left with nothing to come back with, they start making personal comments that are totally out of line and just plain rude. But then again, it is Fox and nothing they say surprises me anymore.

I finally managed to watch the video this morning, and I thought G handled it very well. His comments as always are based on facts, all Fox could say is he looked spiffy. I guess that was an attempt to discredit him but failed miserably.

This is the type of message that I was saying yesterday that Gregg should get across to the stupid FOX interview... This is the only message to give them! Not for every dollar the government gives us it puts back buck forty in the economy! I am afraid 589 is DEAD because we have a weak message!

I understand where your coming from 1208...but IMO I think throwing the facts out there is the best way to fight in this case. The fox commentator wouldnt of given a hoot about the stories. If it were msnbc or any other news I would say I agree with you but its useless with fox.

Which is the true and BETTER story! You MUST learn how to deal with the media! Know what to expect and also know how and what to say.. They're called impact statements!! Gregg did a brave thing and the insults were horrible. But its called maximizing your time! I do not think going into a Conservative media network and talking about spending rich money makes them too sympathetic! So wouldn't the truth about the plight of those frightened and hurt and the impact on many lives be the true message to get out there. Not so momma has money to go shopping and put money back into the economy. The rich and FOX loves this approach! They say take our money as a hand out and go spend it at the malls. Hello! ITS about hungry, homelessness, paying bills and having transportation to go seek work.. FOX will never get it and also sorry BUT the other once supporting media networks are now abandoning the unemployed! I said it before and I am saying it now! We are in a new era, Its called the FORGOTTON ERA! The 21st century of dealing with the unemployed and unfortunate... I use this example a lot but I will argue with anyone about! Its a movie called ROBOCOP! Watch it and tell me if it isn't real.. Shows homeless street people, drugs out of control and big city corruption. Watch it and tell me if it isn't some depiction of our new America! Please....

Except the robocop.. Now that is a little ahead of our time!!! Or is it???
