I love to hear the president whine about FOX News and talk radio. I think we ought to be proud of the fact that we annoy him so much. If you look at the line-up on one side, the liberal media, you start with ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, PBS, MSNBC, the elite newspapers, the one remaining news magazine, the universities, Hollywood it doesnt stop anywhere. And on the other side, talk radio, FOX News. And they cant stand the fact that they no longer have a monopoly.
So, I think it ought to be taken as a compliment. What Ive always said about Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch, their genius was understanding and locating a niche audience in broadcast cable news, which is half the American people. The half that have suffered for decades by the fact you get the news presented from a single perspective over and over again.
Finally, the fact that there is a new perspective, talk radio and FOX, and they cant stand it. Its a source of pride, I would say.
