Apollo XVII On Teevee
Fox News' John Scott is going to be doing a one-hour special on the last Apollo mission starting in about fifteen minutes (6 PM Eastern, 3 PM Pacific).
[Update at 4 PM PST]
I watched most of it. It was pretty good--a history of the manned space program through the end of Apollo, and then a look at where we may be going. They mentioned the X-Prize at the end. One phrase that stuck out that shows that the public perception may be changing. It was something like "Now we have three choices for the future of space--manned, unmanned, or you."
That third choice used to never be considered, or even mentioned.
It will be repeating later, so you might want to check it out.

That's what I would have expected from Fox News. I think they have a reputation for being right-wing because of the contrast with everyone else, but they're really more libertarian leaning, and sympathizing with the GOP in a strategic, Ron Paul kind of way.
