How a real journalist reacts to working at a network that employs Glenn Beck

I've wondered several times on this blog how anyone who considers their self a journalist can rationalize working for a network that has unleashed the madness on America that is Glenn Beck.

It seems like there was at least one person at Fox who couldn't contribute to the legitimization of Beck.

Hall was a contributor to the network for 11 years and a frequent guest on The O’Reilly Factor and Fox News Watch. Kurtz asked Hall why she left Fox and whether she felt like she was “being used to give Fox a certain degree of legitimacy.” Hall replied that part of the reason she left was because of how “scary” Glenn Beck is
Of course, I think Hall should have long since left the network as a result of Bill O'Reilly disrespecting her.

Hey HG: Excellent point.
I've got another strategy set up to put a burr under News Corps saddle.
