Criticisms

Colmes has the unusual distinction of being criticized from both the left and the right. Although he is often identified as a liberal, many liberals view him as being a pushover on the Hannity and Colmes show, providing a weak counter to the conservative Sean Hannity. Liberal commentator Al Franken, in his book Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them prints Colmes' name in smaller font throughout his text to emphasize this.

In 1995, Colmes asserted to USA Today that he's "a moderate." He also hosts his own radio show, FOX News Live with Alan Colmes.
