In Gretchen's World

Gretchen Carlson, a lead anchor on the FOX news channel, expresses her distress about recent contradictions between our U.S leaders. Gretchen has her own show on FOX, has previously worked as a co-host on Fox and Friends, reported on several national and international stories, and even contributed to the networks election coverage for the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections. Carlson believes we as American's should question the contradictions between some of our U.S leaders. John Kerry, the secretary of state states "We're as safe as we've ever been" and Carlson thinks this may be just an attempt to keep us calm! Recent commentary from former head of the DIA, retired General Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, reveals the complete opposite of Kerry's statement. Kerry is "totally irresponsible and clearly not listening to the intelligence community." He further states "Kerry should be challenged by anyone who cares about the future of our country." For Carlson this has raised many questions. It has raised question for me as well. She makes valid points and references credible sources. She introduces the article with a personable approach to really engage the reader. I believe she is speaking to all Americans when she reaches out asking for opinions. She is concerned with the well being of our country due to recent ISIS threats and videos. The ISIS situation should not be taken lightly and we as Americans have the right to know truthfully what is coming. I don't want anything to be sugar coated, and neither does Gretchen Carlson.
