The post-election shake-up at Fox News includes benching two of the pundits who called it wrong the most persistently, New York reports. Under orders from Roger Ailes, producers must get permission before booking Karl Rove or Dick Morris. "The election’s over," says a Fox spokesperson confirming the new rules. Sources say Ailes wasn't happy about Rove's on-air refusal to accept the network calling Ohio for Obama, or about the way Morris' reality-defying predictions became a punch line even inside Fox.
