   Not sure it matters who the White House engages, or not. Fox will still be there, and will continue to make reports.

   This is a tempest in a teapot.

   I agree Zyzzyg, administrations come and go and Fox News continues to grow in popularity. Perhaps there is a reason……

   I concur that Fox News is not a traditional news organization.

   It is capable of independent thought.

   “They have a point of view; that point of view pervades the entire network,” he told The New York Times in a sit-down interview.

   Do tell us Dan what the reaction of the White House and Democrat party would have been if someone on Fox spoke about Nancy Pelosi or Michelle Obama in the same manner that Keith Obermann speaks about Sarah Palin?

   Would you consider it “hate speech?”

   But then I forgot, Sarah Palin is an Untermensch and thus does not deserve to be treated in the same manner as beloved Nan or Michelle.

   Boy these people are wimps.

   It seems to me that Fox News is slowly moving to the left, but it still is better than the main stream media. The White House has been taken over by the Marxist liberal left, and nothing will satisfy them but total government control of all media to include the Internet. I take all news from the WH with a grain of salt and then forget it for it is all lies.

   Well, to the first part of that, I think the 22nd Amendment has something to do with it.

   The current crop of politicians and apparatchik in this Administration doesn’t seem to get the fact that insulting people does not build their case — they’re like little schoolgirls who have not yet matured to the extent that they can moderate their less socially fragrant impulses, such as that of insulting people with whom they disagree.

   Nevertheless, they are practical; think of the economies of scale: by insulting Fox and its viewers, they manage to irritate a large proportion of the growing millions of Fox viewers in a single statement.

   The voter-alienation capacity of their approach is not to be underestimated. Look at the “strongly disapprove” numbers and ask yourself, “Had they a less abrasive approach, would these numbers be so bad?” The answer does seem apparent.

   The old maxim was “don’t get into arguments with people who buy ink by the barrel”. The new maxim should be “don’t insult people who are on cable 24 hours a day”.

   This administration does not appear to be a brain trust.

    FNC is not a traditional news network, like the rest of the DNC parrots — They actually do that forgotten art of journalism on their channel.

    obviously they aren’t a TRADITIONAL news network, they haven’t become a dnc propoganda outlet like all the rest of the “news broadcasts”.

    Whereas NBC/MSNBC is a more traditional news organization that has been bought and paid for by the Democratic Party. Move along, nothing to see here.

    This is just more of a favorite tactic of libs when they’re confronted with something that — horrors! — might just make them have to think.

    Just wish it away with a sweep of the hand, like they tried to do with the Swift Boat Vets when they torpedoed Kerry’s “war hero” garbage. Remember how the meme became that “Those claims have been discredited” even when they were not?

    Same thing happening now. FNC won’t go along with the narrative? Just engage in a little “Wishing makes it so” fantasy and presto! They’re not a “real” news organization, so we don’t have to address their points.

    Libs are the biggest hypocrites in the world, but they can be consistent when they think it’s in their interest.

    *Fox isn’t perfect, but they are the only legitimate major network or cable news organization left out there; All the others are strictly minor league and saturated with bias; I have been watching since the 60′s, so have seen the transition.
    *A bit of advice though for Fox: Lose the flaming liberal plant Shepard Smith and clone some Julie Banderas’s!

    “We don’t feel the obligation to treat them like we would treat a CNN, or an ABC, or an NBC, or a traditional news organization…

    You know, like the ones we let sleep in the Lincoln bedroom.

    – And get Michelle her own show. There’s a farm pasture somewhere out there with Greta Van Susteren’s name on it; revamp the format and give it to someone who makes me want to use that hour for something other than cleaning the cats’ litter boxes and taking out the garbage.

    I think there is more to this than we can see, and Fox, in spite of Hannity and Glenn Beck, is moving leftward.
