Hillary Ditches Obama, Joins Fox News
Fox News, Hillary Clinton, obama, POTUS 6:10 AM
Now wouldn't that be one hell of a headline?
Of course, there is no news that Hillary Clinton is going to work for Fox. However, Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes did say in a recent inverview that he would be interested in hiring Hillary. Ailes told Newsweek, "She looks unhappy at the State Department. She'd get ratings."
To be sure, an Obama administration insider bolting the president and going to work for Fox News would attract both ratings and controversy. But is the idea so crazy? Hillary has already declared that she is interested in leaving her post in short order. On Fox News, Hillary's feelings have been rather positive. During her tenure at State, she has come on camera to discuss policy with Fox several times. As a presidential candidate, Clinton heaped praise on Fox, saying she "appreciated" the network's coverage of her campaign. Campaign surrogates Ed Rendell and Terry McAuliffe went even further, calling the network "Fair and Balanced" (their tag line).
Will Hillary leave State and join Fox News? For now, we only know that she is unlikely to be inactive when she leaves her current post.

This post is so disingenuous. It's purely speculative based on one quote by Roger Ailes, saying how he "feels" she looks. She's made it quite clear she's staying at State at least through the President's current term. So any speculating that you might do is based on an outcome which won't reveal itself for at least a year and a half, if not more, out.
