Doesn't count unless it comes from the mouth of Oreilly or Hannity. Shep has always been the non-crazy partisan talking head on Fox but his job is reading a teleprompter to report the the news whereas Bill and the others provide commentary and talking points for "conservatives" to regurgitate on Internet comments and office water cooler talk.
Neither Reilly nor Hannity are newsmen so they don't speak for the news division of Fox News the channel. With that said, I don't doubt that both will probably smear CNN et al., but at least the news division has gone on record as defending CNN, which will make and Hannity and Oreilly attack run counter to the official stance of their co-branded news division.
