  • When it comes to Fox and logic, I cannot compute because they bend terms and alter reality to meet their whims. Fortunately we have Jon Stewart. Jon can explain anything. http://videocafe.crooksandliars.com/scarce/fox-sake
  • Maybe it's time for them to rethink the "Fair and balanced" slogan.
  • If that is the case then they should certainly go one step further if they truly believe what they are saying.Instead of news they should call theirs "The opinion hour" or "Just our thoughts"And at the end of each segment put a disclaimer such as "all the proceeding information is unreliable".
  • murdock also owns the wall street journal now. since his purchase, it's flipped from reliable journalism to biased reporting. one small step for fox might pull wsj in the proper direction.
  • When did he say that, I don't get that from that quote, he is saying that this administration and the President himself are a bunch of dumb a%%es.
  • You sound excatly like that which you are complaining about...You have used this quote OUT of context...In the interest of being "Fair and balanced" you should have included the entire quote, which is this... "I liken the channel to that of a newspaper with separate sections on straight news and commentary, White House officials were intentionally conflating opinion show hosts like Glenn Beck with news reporters like Major Garrett, It's astounding the White House cannot distinguish between news and opinion programming," Clemente said. "It seems self-serving on their part." So lets look at some facts, shall we.. Fox News broke stories that were not to kind to Obama....Remember that guy named Bill Ayers and something called ACORN." Ayers was co-founder of the Weather Underground, a communist terrorist group that bombed the Pentagon and other buildings in the 1960s and 1970s. In 1995, Ayers hosted Obama at his home for a political function and the two men later served together on the board of an anti-poverty group known as the Woods Fund. The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), which once had close ties to Obama, has been accused by a variety of law enforcement agencies of voter fraud. In recent weeks, the Democrat-controlled Congress moved to sever funding to ACORN after Fox News aired undercover videotapes of ACORN employees giving advice on how to break the law to a pair of journalists disguised as a pimp and prostitute. "What I think is fair to say about Fox -- and certainly it's the way we view it -- is that it really is more a wing of the Republican Party," said Anita Dunn, White House communications director, on CNN. "They take their talking points, put them on the air; take their opposition research, put them on the air. And that's fine. But let's not pretend they're a news network the way CNN is." As for Dunn's complaint about Fox News' coverage of the Obama campaign, a study by the Pew Research Center showed that 40 percent of Fox News stories on Obama in the last six weeks of the campaign were negative. Similarly, 40 percent of Fox News' stories on Obama's Republican opponent, Sen. John McCain, were negative. On CNN, by contrast, there was a 22-point disparity in the percentage of negative stories on Obama (39 percent) and McCain (61 percent). The disparity was even greater at MSNBC, according to Pew, where just 14 percent of Obama stories were negative, compared to a whopping 73 percent of McCain stories -- a spread of 59 points. And just who IS Anita Dunn??? Here she is...."And then the third lesson and tip actually come from two of my favorite political philosophers, Mao Zedong and Mother Teresa -- not often coupled with each together, but the two people that I turn to most to basically deliver a simple point, which is, you're going to make choices. You're going to challenge. You're going to say, "Why not?" You're going to figure out how to do things that have never been done before. But here's the deal: These are your choices. They are no one else's."...Her favorite Political Philosopher is MAO...Nice!!! So is Obama just trying to stiffle stories against him? Is he trying to "infringe on the freedom of speech and infringe on the FREEDOM OF THE PRESS." Fairness Doctrine anyone?????
