Fox & Friends Can't Bring Themselves To Discuss Chaz Bono

When ABC announced that Chaz Bono, son of Cher and Sonny Bono, would compete on "Dancing With the Stars," Fox News' "Medical A-Team" psychiatrist Keith Ablow launched into a hateful and ignorant crusade against the transgender activist, calling him a "very disordered person" and saying his presence on the popular show would poison young people's gender identities. To her credit, Fox host Megyn Kelly thoroughly admonished and debunked Ablow on her show and during a segment with Fox headliner Bill O'Reilly.
