A Cold Wind Is Blowin In...The White House Steps Up Smear Campaign Against Fox News.

[hjmick]

Good Christ, what a waste of bandwidth...

 

[EriktheRed]

Watching Chris Matthews makes me physically ill.

What do you think of Rachel Maddow?

This is nothing new.

The previous administration routinely rewarded Fox News for being so compliant to their needs and called out Journalists that dared to investigate them. Wasn't the New York Times routinely accused of Treason under Bush?

Hunh? How about a credible link on that?

And Yes, Bush did accept the opportunity to give interviews from Fox. It was the only way for him to get a fair shake at reaching the public.

 

[keee keee]

first it was sending out paid union thugs to intimidate the public from demonstrating and protesting at town hall meetings this summer, next crying like stuck pigs over a criticising skit on SNL, now going to war with a anti administration news station.

 

[keee keee]

Who's next?

 

[concept]

Hells bells, the administration is giving notice to all media that if they leave the swoon, they too will be out of the loop, not for days or weeks, but permanently.

Once Fox started calling the president a "Nazi", a "Stalinist", and a "Racist", they lost all credibility as a "News" Organization when it comes to political coverage.

Hell, I'm surprised the President still lets them into the press room.

It is the president's choice as to which media organization he chooses to talk to. Fox has decided to hate on Mr Obama all the time, no matter what, so he's chosen not to give them face time.

Seems like a rational response to me.

You ever going to back these statements up? </rhetorical>

No you won't because you can't.


What a clown.

 

[keee keee]

mm, mm, good
mm, mm, good
Barrack Obama won a Nobel prize for doing shit!!!

 

[Andrew2382]

Stupid idea by obama and the admin....If you fight the Media..esp the one with the largest viewing audience out of the big 3...you are going to lose.

Media will always have the last word.

Journalists need to remember that if they're doing their job right, no one is going to like them.

Don't you find a difference between rewarding a news agency and penalizing them? Calling out a journalist is also very different from what Obama is attempting. It seems like you justifying one wrong from another wrong. How does that work?

I find it to be pretty shocking that so few even know about all the independent studies which have consistently shown that Fox News really is the most balanced News Network on TV. This was definitely proven to be true during the last Election. Oh well,i guess ignorance really is bliss to many.

Feel free to link us to any of these "many" independent studies....

..Cause all the ones I've seen say pretty much the opposite, like this one:

Misperceptions, the Media and the Iraq War - World Public Opinion

What is the white house doing to "penalize" Fox News?

Uh hey are they still singing for their Dear Leader over at CNN (Communist News Network)? Singing for Health Care? My God,what the H*ll has happened to CNN? They're getting to be just plain creepy at this point. Yikes!

The Liberal dominated MSM has lost just about all credibility at this point and that's why so many are now turning to Fox News. It's simply a fresh alternative to the old & stale Liberal Media. They lost just about all of their credibility when they went after Sarah Palin and her children. Many people will not ever forget or forgive what they did to Palin and her children. The only question left now is...Can the Liberal Media stoop any lower?

That is such crap. MSNBC always backs up their stories. They either provide film footage or quotes that can easily be verified. And if they do say something that is not accurate, they set the record straight.

Fox News lies and doesn't ever apologize, no matter how untrue something is.

As for Sarah Palin??? That stupid cow has caused all of her own problems. She paraded her family in front of the media every chance she got. The unmarried pregnant daughter, the would-be son-in-law, the poor little baby with down syndrome. She is an opportunist and her family did not come first. Her family was exploited by HER, not the media.

In recent weeks this White House has been engaged in an aggressive and vicious Smear Campaign...

Blah, blah, whine, blah... (utter ridiculousness edited out)

Will this be a long bitter Winter of Discontent?

ROFL.

FoxNews has been demonizing the President since before he took office, calling him a "Nazi", a "Stalinist", a "Racist", etc, etc...

Now the White House is finally taking Fox to task, and they're whining about it.

LOL.

REALLY????
when did anyone on FNC call Obama a nazi?

LMAO. MSNBC does what?

MSNBC, owned by GE. GE took bail out money from the Government. Want to know what the price to MSNBC was? Go check out Ezekiel Emanual's blog - the price of bail out money "companies should support the Administration".

MSNBC have ZERO credibility. But with your avatar, I think we can all see another borg in the Obamanation has arrived.

Name one reward given to Fox for "being so compliant to their needs".

As far as the New York Times....yes when you divuldge information classified as "SECRET" that usually constitutes TREASON in time of war.

 

[PatekPhilippe]

The Donahue show was cancelled and silenced for daring to speak up against the Iraq war...... didn't hear much screaming from the right on that one....

BULLSHIT...Donahue failed because he was a total progressive libtard dipshit molded by Air America and Janine Garafalo.

Where did that happen? When? Post proof!

FOX as an entity never did any such thing. PUNDITS who have OPINION shows might have.

These are ON Fox but do not represent the VIEWS of Fox. It's the OPINION of the show HOST.

Unless FoxNews specifically posts a retraction for comments made by it's opinion hosts, on the air, either immediately before or after the show airs, like this:

"FoxNews does not necessarily agree with the views presented on Hannity. Any comments made on Hannity are purely the point of view of the show's host"

Then they are in tacit agreement with the show's host, and are thus responsible for the validty of their comments.

Fox News consider their viewers to be intelligent enough to work out the difference between "news" and "opinion". If you don't fall into that group, perhaps you shouldn't watch. Just a suggestion.
