Seriously though it makes good business sense for CNN to have the conservative and Republican elements on the air - if only to undercut some of FOX's market share...
Not really.

Lou Dobbs is loved by unions and is not considered that conservative.

As for Novak, I dislike him for other reasons but while he is conservative now he supported JFK and LBJ at one point. Either way both he and Tucker Carlson were commentators and were part of "entertainment" type shows. Every commentator comes with his opinion - conservative or liberal. You can't keep bringing these types of shows up as news just because they air on the network. If you do, then you can start saying that the commercials they show carry bias towards whatever too.

By Linton Weeks. Robert Novak, the gruff-voiced political pundit and occasional loose cannon in a three-piece suit, is leaving CNN and going to work for Fox News. In the recent past, Novak has been making news more than commenting on it. ...
