White House retreats in war on Fox News when other networks revolt

October 23, 2009, 8:15 am · 5 comments

The Huffington Post is outraged – positively outraged – that the rest of the news media has risen up in support of Fox News.

Fox News Channel is twisting American politics in an unprecedented way, and too many members of the press still aren’t getting it.

The White House has exposed Fox News for what it is: not a news organization, but a partisan political entity that is waging a war aimed at destroying the Obama administration and its progressive agenda.

That certainly does appear to be the case, because five other networks stood as one behind Fox News yesterday. When the White House attempted to bar Fox from interviewing the Pay Czar, ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN said they would also decline to interview him if Fox was barred.

We’ve criticized President Obama for taking so long to develop a strategy for the war in Afghanistan. But if the war on Fox is any indication of what happens when a strategy is rushed, take all the time you want on the Afghanistan thing, President Obama. All the time you want.

CNN? I’m surprised any of them had a backbone. But CNN? Wow. The Huffandstoned Post is a different matter. Does that colossal conglomeration of anencephalic zombies really think anybody would care they are “outraged”? If they like censorship so much then lead by example and pull the plug.

interesting theory…FOX and the White House…they are both in it for business…If fox wants to expand it is going to have to be allowed to by the white house….so knowing nothing is personal and all business…expect a change in both parties on the way they handle eachother….. theory brought to you by Doc. Savage….
