“it’s like the Democratic Party went out and found themselves a caricature of everything that they complained about/hated/feared with regard to George W Bush… only this time? It’s all true.”

Now that one had to have left a mark!!!

It was about time the media got off their buns and spoke out. Imagine if CBS were to be the network under fire. You would hear the howeling all the way around the world. If there were ever a more true motto for the media and the First Amendment it would be “don’t tread on me”.

He did a real smackdown of Gibbs off camera.

Note the part at the end too. While branding all of Fox, Obama apparently sees Keith Olberman and Rachel Maddow as legit news folks.

This was an opportunity for the self proclaimed MSMs to throw a bone in the apparent interest of protecting freedom of speech, but really in the interest of stopping the bleeding on their ever descending ratings.

I am boycotting all things ABC, CBS, and NBC. A massive boycott would quicly teach Obama a lesson about the power of the capitalism that he seems to hate and would cause him call off his war against Fox. Would also demonstrate to MoveOn that RedState has a stronger backing.

Morons AND cowards. On Jan 2, 2011, when the new Republican majority takes over the House, and the Senate convenes with 44-46 Republicans, this administration’s agenda is done.

by the other networks. They knew that if Fox News was excluded that they would drop the “Fair and Balanced” tagline and go with the uber-cool “All the News the White House Doesn’t Want You to Know” or “What the Lapdogs aren’t Reporting” and their already huge ratings lead would turn into an unbridgeable chasm.

If this had happened two months ago I doubt that the others would have jumped up to defend Fox on principle. They were so in the tank for Obama I really doubt it.

But in the last two months, some of the smarter of them can see that the Obama team is a bunch of silly screw ups and they are hedging their bets now.

for doing the right thing. And it’s very unchristian of me to think otherwise. But I keep wondering if there wasn’t some quiet arm twisting behind the scenes. Something along the lines of: “You know, we pay 20% of the bills here. If we aren’t getting our share, we don’t see why that should continue.” I don’t know what the real split for the bills are, what I do know is that FOX seems to be the only news network that is actually growing.

But at least for now they’ve taken the moral position.

You make a good point. Fox could never live up to the standard of networks like, say, MSNBC, that bastion of integrity. Anyone who can accuse Fox of ANYTHING and ignore MSNBC’s disgusting race baiting stunt (remember that?) is truly a moron.

And when we find ourselves living in ruins and slavery, don’t think you and other enablers of tyranny will avoid responsibility with your “good intentions”.

This is why you need the sarcasm tag. No matter how obviously silly a liberal mockery quote you think you can make, there is always a liberal out there who will top it with a real one they actually believe.
