Alright, what is with that new British anchor on FOX News? It just seems like I am watching the BBC News with the very apparent British accent and even British slang. Did he get kicked off BBC News for being Conservative or something?

BBC would never allow a news anchor to use slang.

Maybe it isn't slang in Britian.

Just another Fox ploy... It's like the documentaries that are all over T.V. in America with the narrator having a British accent to be considered more authorative, scholarly, and generally intelligent. LOL
Everyone knows in America when you watch a documentary with a narrator that speaks in a high or middle English accent what is presented has to be true, correct, and grounded in reason.
More image ploys from the mass media tis all lol.
