Quick programming note
I’ve got the night off for my O’Reilly sub-hosting duties. Tomorrow will be a 3-hour Factor best-of marathon for the July 4th holiday. I’m scheduled to fill in again on Thursday and you’ll be seeing me in the guest host spot on Fridays regularly throughout the summer. Hope you’re enjoying them!

Michell,
We enjoy all you do for us. You are the bomb – uh, er – FIRECRACKER!
Happy 4th, GOD Bless.
Sorry for misspelling your name.
*blushes
MM,
Your doing an awsome job! You work to hard for an American. Are you an illegal alien? Thanks for the heads up.

My cup runneth over
Congrats on the regular Friday gig.
MORE ! MORE! MORE!
I have been blogging so much that my wife wants to know if I have a internet girlfriend.
Well now what Michelle?
It’s very good to see, especially the transition from contributor to guest host. I hope to see the momentum continue.
you are wonderful to look at, extremely intelligent and you don’t take any crap from anyone what more could we want?
Yeah, what Thomas said. In a perfect world, Hannity and KP (to replace Skeletor) would follow Bill, and then would be Michelle’s show. Sorry Greta, you can be on the weekend with Geraldo.
I really don’t want to see Michelle ‘taking over’ O’Reily’s show. It’s his show. But if she wants an hour program on FOX, that would be a nice option in the future. Maybe something different. You never know. I miss the videos from Hotair, but .. it’s all good.
Then again, as much as I like Bill, I hope that he doesn’t stay on air as long as Larry King….
/But I do love you Bill.
Congratulations on the steady Friday gig!
I would love to see the view-ship matrix; I’m sure it would show a spike in viewers when you’re on!
Happy 4th of July to All!!!
May God Bless America
I am disappointed about tonight but I guess you deserve a break.
Of course we are enjoying your guest spots but not the BillO flashbacks.
Have a great holiday Michelle and see you on Thurs . night ..
As long as they don’t have you doing tabloid stuff, it’ll be great!
then, Who is doing the Factor tonight?
We love it when you’re on TV , anywhere anytime. You should know that.
As for the future, taking Greta’s spot would be the best possible scenario.
Off the Record- with Michelle “Firecracker” Malkin.
Happy Independence Day America.
its the 4th of July everywhere, but only in America is it Independence Day.
p.s. Hows hubby taking all this growth?
We pray that you and your entire family are happier than ever. U all deserve it.
Why am I watching a O’reilly rerun???? This is just plain wrong!!
Ohhh noooo…looked forward to this all day…whaaaaa…you have your fans to think of Michelle. Just kidding, except for I did look forward to this all day…have a nice night off and enjoy the holiday remembering what made this country so great…the people. Be tuning in thursday nightr for sure.

good job!
Dang! This time I ‘knew’ MM would be hosting and sort of scheduled (back of the mind) an appointment. Then I turn on the show and see this loudmouthed old Catholic Irish dude. Ugh.
Anyway, those are GREAT numbers since its a vacation week. Congratulations on your regular gig on Fridays too.
I hope that you can continue the ‘vent’ programming on Hot Air. That makes your site unique and really should be the future of media. I know it isn’t as much money as Fox probably throws your way, but I hope you expand VENT.
I wish there would be at LEAST one a day and possibly two. Use guest hosts for people to raise their profile on VENT. Laura Ingraham, Spencer already does one, Bryan does a good one, yours are always good but that’s expected because it’s your brainchild, Kirsten Powers, that Mary Katherine girl, different candidates could even do an exclusive VENT for you.
Like I said, I am overjoyed that your voice gets a great platform on FOX. But I hope you can expand your base and make VENT a regular TV program on the internet.
I too missed you but you and your crew deserve time off. You, Bryan and Allahpundit have a good Fourth. Just a thought Michelle, it would be great if there were a way for you to publicize email addresses of folks in the news. Is that possible? I mean, like Chertoff. The Senators are behind this wall that unless you provide a resume, your emails simply disappear into the ether, I think.
What do you think?
One more reason to look forward to Friday.
Oh My! I rushed my wife through shopping. She said what’s up? I said Michelle Malkin is hosting the OR factor tonight and I want to see it. I really believed she slowed the shopping cart down for that. Anyway I got home at 8:30 all primed to see at least the last half and…there he was. My first thought was I hope nothing bad has happened to MM. Ok I can live without seeing you on tonight but it was a letdown. Keep up the great work.
Al a big fan
Good for you Michelle. You deserve the recognition. I hope Fox provides you with your own program…
Hint: Drop Geraldo.
Michelle Malkin 4 President!
I agree George. Michelle should get an hour show each weekend, run on Sat and Sun, to cover what she wants, with whatever contributors she wants. Show El Mustachio the door. After the way he treated her a few weeks ago, that would be poetic justice. And a much better program:)
I’ve thrown out some specific ideas for that in other threads here, but the main point is FNC’s weekend time is when they are flexible and willing to experiment with new ideas. If they would just give Michelle an hour, I’m sure her content choices would satisfy me just fine.
WE WANT OUR MICHELLE!!
Gee, it’s so easy to agree with everyone around this place:
1. Michelle’s own Fox gig, on weeknights, thanks. Weekends on Fox is Doomsville: everyone is out and grandma has gone to sleep.
2. Michelle, your straight-up, no BS style is a nightmare for liberals: after the liberal left media spent 40 years brainwashing everyone to assume that people of minority ethnicity and women are off-limits for strong attack and that glamorous people should be worshipped, who do they find themselves defending their absurdities against: a glamorous minority woman. You know what they say: what goes around comes around.
3. I know you have nothing to do with it, but no more O’Reilly flashbacks or reruns: his style just doesn’t work for it. Like chicken flavored ice cream, there’s just no market for the taste.
One directorial suggestion for the TV camera (yeah, I’m in the biz): Laughing at their absurdity works great for you against the really humorless guys (the ones who smile should be dealt with as you currently do). It’s a minor point, but your finest moment so far that I’ve seen is when you were up against some African American bigot touting black superiority, and you started laughing at the absurdity and said, “oh please!”. You can certainly knock down these clay pidgeons with facts, but that moment just froze time - and the opposition. It was a brilliant moment, truly. It’s a great techique when used sparingly and made to order for your particular onsceen presence.
However, like everyone else here, I also need to encapsulate the general feelings here: Though you may have started off a little rough in the beginning, God, Michelle, you really are good!
Michelle,
Thought you were going to be on tonight.
Missed not seeing you. Thanks for all you do to keep me updated on the
important news of the day.
Six months ago we dumped our cable company and have not been able to see the factor. Now you are on it all the time. Satellite is starting to look good. Came to your web site via Jewish World Review, and it has been great these last six months, but seeing and hearing you would be so much better
Please. Go. Away.
Michelle -
As a former worldwide marketing manager for a name-brand multinational, I concur with Conservative Cat: a bit of leavening lightness and flashes of relaxed humorous bite back would “factorially” enhance your overall TV espousal style and winning projection.
Otherwise, salute your swift progressive mastery of the medium. I reckon you’ll be the conservative media Dominatrix :>) …. for your fans, none too soon!

FOX news can be seen on Sky Angel.
Google it
It is the 4th of July. All in favor of changing FIRECRACKER to MM-80 say BOOM!!!
Michelle, I have to tell you my wife LOVES what you did to your hair. She told me to tell you. Now that I am embarrassed, have a great 4th. ww
I love you. There … I’ve said it. And it’s okay because my wife loves you too.
I’ve said this before too but here it is again – - you need your own show – we need you to have your own show – - the country needs you to have your own show.
I saw you on Fox tonight. Geraldo is such a pill. And that’s the nicest thing I can say about him, so I’ll stop at that.
In contrast you make your points with class and intelligence and logic.
Unfortunately wisdom is not often recognized by the foolish – and there are far too many foolish people around today, just look at the mainstream media and the liberals…
Keep up the great work, I have the feeling you are making a difference, and more than we may realize and see in the short run!
that porno guy flipping you off at the end of the “discussion” was disturbing. good to see you keep cool.
