I like Bristol Palin, as well as her mother......
Fox "News" doesn't even pretend to be news anymore do they? In Court, Fox argued (and won) that under the First Amendment that broadcasters have THE RIGHT to LIE or DELIBERATELY DISTORT news reports over the public airwaves. The Court of Appeals (Florida) held that the FCC position against news distortion is only a "policy," not law.
Bill O'Reilly is an entertainer who drums up an audience with hate talk. Even O'Reilly acknowledged that race baiting produces ratings, and that counts more than accuracy. There are plenty of places to fact check "news" across the internet, for those who are interested in the truth. At Fox, they've fought and won for the RIGHT to continue to LIE to you.
As far as why Bristol is on DWTS, she was presented by the show as a teen activist who lobbies against teen pregnancy.
