Typical whiner leftist view of Fox from day one. Nothing new here.

Nixon tried the same thing with the NYT. All it did was increase the Times circulation.

Appropriate Attacks on the Press?


Calling Fox News "a wing of the Republican Party," the Obama administration is escalating its war of words against the news organization, and in recent weeks, the White House has begun using its taxpayer-funded blog to directly attack what it called "Fox lies."
Do you think it's appropriate for the president and staff to use the stature and power of the office -- including a taxpayer-funded blog -- to wage attacks on the press?



Thank you for voting!




Yes. The president has every right to defend himself by any means against all attacks and opposing viewpoints, even from the press. 4% (2,948 votes)


Yes. But if the president disagrees with the press he should respond directly, not through proxies, and not by using a taxpayer funded blog -- his staff just sound like whiners. 8% (5,296 votes)


No. The press has a duty and right to present opposing viewpoints. The attacks demean the office of the president. 88% (59,521 votes)


Undecided. <1% (144 votes)


Total Votes: 67,909

Hmmm.

It's simple...FOX news is the media wing of the Republican Party, MSNBC is the media wing of the Democratic party, and CNN plays both ends against the middle.

Simply put...this is not a new revelation.

I beg to differ... CNN is the propaganda wing of the Dems.
