Brit Signs Off

While I know many of you might not care, this evening was Brit Hume's last evening anchoring the Fox News program "Special Report with Brit Hume". Brit has been with the Fox News Channel for over 10 years and his program is the highest rated political program on cable television. Why am I dedicating a post to this? Because Brit has become a part of mine and Kevin's daily life. Each night we sit down after dinner or during and watch Brit talk about the national news. This is something we've done consistantly since we got married 2.5 years ago.

Brit will definitely be missed. Kevin and I hope that his replacement, Bret Baier, will be as consistant, entertaining and balanced as Brit always has been. Scoff if you want, but for a Fox News reporter, I feel that Brit has always managed to lead a discussion that shows two points of view - something severely lacking from many news programs. While Brit is not leaving Fox News altogether, we will not see him as regulary, and he will be missed.
