Burma, Alex Wagner and Fox News

I watched Alex Wagner "Now" as she reported on our President in Burma. Her pride and passion were evident as she discussed the diplomatic trip to her mother's homeland. She actually beamed at times. The discussion panel was a diverse group and covered many salient points- the administration's objectives, China and a global future. The video is over 11 minutes long, but it is worth the watch.
I am not a Fox New viewer, but I have had to sit through the morning tripe at Dr's. Offices, auto service lounges, etc. I have never, NEVER, seen a Fox News discussion that covered a subject so well.

Thanks for posting this link! I just watched the whole thing.

I LOVE Nick Kristof--what a good and generous heart he has. (Reading the book "Half the Sky" and watching the series was life-altering. Well, perhaps not life-altering on a day-to-day basis, but certainly outlook-altering.)

Thanks so much for posting that. It made me smile to see how genuinely thrilled both of them were about the trip and the changes in Burma. The other panelists were full of information but Alex and Nick were full of happiness--it was lovely.
