Steve Doocy reads Republican talking points memo on air

[Chris]

Steve Doocy is offering further evidence that Fox News acts as the communications arm of the Republican Party. This morning the Fox & Friends host read directly from a "pundit prep" document provided to him by the Republican National Committee: "They said the three best ways to define the Barack Obama economy: the national debt, (which is skyrocketing), the unemployment (which is north of 8 percent), and gas prices":

What are you complaining about? ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC are all mouthpieces for the Democrat Party, and you are complaining about the Republicans and FOX? You have a 5-1 TV advantage and you are still complaining; yet you probably complain about the so called "1 percenters" being greedy. Oh, and your link, Media Matters, a left-wing hack site with absolutely ZERO objectivity or credibilty, they got exposed for the hacks they are. Media Matters, what a joke.

Fox exposed, yet again.

 

[Zander]

Yeah, it took a memo from the RNC for anyone to put those three together......

 

[Lakhota]

I saw the clip on The Daily Show. Gretchen looked sorta shocked when Doocy whipped it out. It's like watching monkeys play football. Funny...

 

[Si modo]

No way! Gas prices, the Debt, and unemployment are not issues?

 

[Old Rocks]

Well, let's see. Gas prices. We are exporting gasoline and diesel by the tanker load, so there is no shortage of either in this nation. No shortage of oil, either. So the prices are set by the energy corps. What are you 'Coservatives' suggesting, that we do price controls? Limit exports?

National debt? You guys are pushing even more tax cuts that would increase the debt. So how do you run on a program that would increase the debt, then complain about the debt?

Unemployment? I suppose if you can get the wages down to Chinese levels as is your goal, there will be less unemployment. More hunger, but less unemployment. And far more money for the already very wealthy.

Ah yes, what a future you 'Conservatives' envision for the Citizens of this nation.

So, they aren't issues.

Got it.

Wait let me write this down, national debt, (which is skyrocketing), the unemployment (which is north of 8 percent), and gas prices

Wow the things you learn

 

[Claudette]

Fox exposed, yet again.

Exposed as what?

I recall Fox reading the DNC talking points during the 2010 campaign season.

Doocey admitted it came from the RNC and read them....in other words....REPORTED THE NEWS.

So exactly what were they exposed as?

Easy. Fair and balanced.

Don't tell Chris though.

Don't you know that they are supposed to follow the lead of all the other "news" agencies and report that everything is hunky-dorey and that we have nothing to worry about?

Well he didn't read them verbatim he added his own little flourishes. He then did his job to advance them with a call for emails to further discuss them.

Love the "you'd be surprised how many people are cutting back ON FOOD" to close things.

Lucky for us we can go watch outlets like MSNBC for objective reporting.

These are all democrat talking points! Aside from not being true.
