Pennsylvania governor and former DNC chairman Ed Rendell appeared this morning on Fox & Friends, and complimented the network for its “very balanced” coverage.

“Fox has done the fairest job, has remained most objective of all the cable networks — you hate both our candidates,” Rendell said. “No, I’m only kidding, but you actually have done a very balanced job of reporting the news.”

Rendell, who is a supporter of Sen. Hillary Clinton, also mentioned how FNC has not gotten “caught up with Senator Obama” (maybe he didn’t mind those “two hours of Obama bashing” a couple weeks ago).

F&F co-anchor Steve Doocy was so excited by the compliment, apparently things reached a Chris Matthews level.
