The White House believes FOX News is not a legitimate news organization…
Unlike the other networks that factcheck anti-Obama Saturday Night Live skits and get all tingly when the president speaks:

For all of Axelrod and Rahm’s supposed political “genius”, do they really think that taking to airwaves like this is good for Obama?
All I hear and see in these two are rather desperate mouth-pieces.
But keep yapping gentelmen.

This has been a problem for decades, ever since Walter Cronckite proclaimed we have lost in Vietnam. Now O

If they cant control what is reported they can’t control us. it’s as simple as that.

An absolute no-brainer…and HUGE mistake from the top. With the problems and issues facing this country, one would think the White House has a priority list of “things to do” and fighting with FOXNews shouldn’t even be on that list!
We’re paying these fools to spend hundreds of worthless hours fighting the television network we all watch!
How stupid are WE???

Instead of whining about FOX NEWS, how about the White House start talking about how they intend to fix the problem of our entire country being bankrupt and headed for a massive collapse? How about they focus on getting Americans jobs?
October 19th, 2009 | 9:31 am | #22
Let’s face it when Red Eye on Fox has higher viewership numbers than CNN prime time, Fox is doing something right. People want the truth and let’s face it, we aren’t getting it from anyone in the White House or their lap dog media. They all think that the general public is stupid. Fortunately, they have a big wake up call coming.

General Electric, has to go hat in hand to the federal government for a $140 billion bailout.
GE’s specific lobbying issues included the “Climate Stewardship Act,” “Electric Utility Cap and Trade Act,” “Global Warming Reduction Act,” “Federal Government Greenhouse Gas Registry Act,” “Low Carbon Economy Act,” and “Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act.”
This isn’t altruism or public relations. GE has started a joint venture called Greenhouse Gas Services, which invests in — and hopes to manage the trade in — greenhouse gas credits. But these investments and this trading floor are of basically no use and nearly no value without government restrictions on greenhouse gases.
Hence the lobbying, buttressed by generous campaign contributions: Employees and executives gave $1.35 million to politicians in the past election while GE’s political action committee shelled out $1.55 million. About 64 percent of this $2.9 million went to Democrats, with Obama easily the top recipient of GE money.
Obama’s budget includes the payoff, promising to start a multibillion-dollar greenhouse gas industry by 2012. In a letter this week, GE’S Immelt told shareholders that current events present an “opportunity of a lifetime,” because “capitalism will be ‘reset
Employees and executives gave $1.35 million to politicians in the past election while GE’s political action committee shelled out $1.55 million. About 64 percent of this $2.9 million went to Democrats, with Obama easily the top recipient of GE money
it avoids government stress tests, rules for limiting risks, and limits on executive compensation
General Electric is using a loophole to get 74 billion in government bailout funds while avoiding federal restrictions, including pay limits.
The U.S. Government issued two separate contracts with GE Healthcare in order to access their medical equipment and support services. The two contracts each have one base year and up to nine option years. The Wisconsin Technology Network reports that the contracts have a total combined value of over $600 million if all options are exercised. The first year for the contracts is worth $63 million

This administration is the real oppressor of class. Liberals and socialists have a twisted idea that dictatorship a way to reach equality but they exempted themselves to that rational. They have a secret desire to become a dictators themselves like their heroes Chavez and Fidel Castro. After they set a condition where they subject the masses in poverty and desperation. Next, they will create a corrupt police force to oppress and control the underprivileged masses which they created in the first place.

Hannity is having another Freedom Tour. Four lucky winners get to see the part in his hair up close.
There will be a contest to throw rubber frogs into boiling water. Winner gets to watch Dick Morris lisp all over a prostitute.
There is the big contest in which one lucky winner gets a trip/cruise to Alaska. Each contestant tries to carry a pregnant Sarah Palin through an obstacle course. Her water has broke and she’s 1,000 miles from Alaska. Can you skip the hospital and get her on a plane in time? Who knows. Fastest time wins.

Martin: Would that brothel be in Barney Frank’s basement?
(And, that “vapor rub” incident was for a magazine cover. Oh! MY! A STAGED MAGAZINE COVER! How insidious!)
Greta = Democrat. Obama supporter. Hard to tell by her REPORTING, though, isn’t it?
Chris Wallace. Democrat. Obama supporter. Hart to tell by his REPORTING, though, isn’t it?
Juan Williams — sits in for O’Reilly. A liberal (as opposed to a tethered Marxist) who gets to actually opine.
Geraldo — Liberal Democrat. Has all the time in the world on Fox to spew his views — even has his own show.
Stossel — Libertarian. Has own show.
You have 2 hours of Hannity and Beck (clearly conservative/libertarian) who have OPINION shows surrounded by NEWS shows where — oh, my…reporters act like reporters and news is treated as news.
Might have something to do with the ratings…

Giving up on the news business
Before reaching their dangerous conclusion – recommending government supported journalism in a report called the Reconstruction of American Journalism – former Washington Post editor Leonard Downie and Columbia journalism prof Michael Schudson make some basic and, I believe, profoundly mistaken assumptions, namely: “That journalism is now at risk, along with the advertising-supported economic foundations of newspapers.”

From Fox News and Thinkprogress.org -
On Fox and Friends this morning, host Brian Kilmeade tried to paint a contrast between the Obama administration and the Bush administration, telling former Bush press secretary Dana Perino, “not only did you not go after” networks critical of Bush, “you gave them interviews, as did the president.” Perino corrected him, however, saying that “towards the end,” the Bush administration largely froze out MSNBC:
KILMEADE: And not only did you not go after them, you gave them interviews, as did the president.
DOOCY: Sure.
KILMEADE: Gave them all interviews. Read Ronald Reagan’s diaries…
PERINO: Towards the end we didn’t do a lot with MSNBC. That’s, that is the case.

“PERINO: Towards the end we didn’t do a lot with MSNBC.”
Towards the end. Didn’t do a lot.
I don’t remember anyone, especially the Chief of Staff, saying that MSNBC wasn’t legitimate.
You tittybaby leftist keyboard neen-jahs LOVE to call the conservatives big names like “Nazis” and “Socialists”, but your lord god almighty Barack Hussein Obama is the one quashing free thinking and free speaking daily.
Bunch of thin-skinned children.
But when the real evil attacks (Islamic radicals, ie terrorists) you come-a runnin’ don’t you? Then you need the volunteer army to defend you; you can’t sleep at night because one time your sister lived in Manhattan and you just can’t believe that happened in YOUR city (gasp for air).
But then Hollywood comes along and tells you that all the conservatives hate the gays and blacks and you believe them because Sean Penn was in a movie and dated Madonna so he must have tons of life experience, right?
But reality it is YOU, the leftist nitwit who patronizes the little guy by giving him something for nothing while not trying to fix the root of his problem; fix the slums, fix the housing, fix the schools.
No, the answer is socialized health care! If everybody [except the gub'ment] has it, it must be the best!
Get a clue.
The Chief of Staff said that Fox News isn’t legitimate. So what if they are not? That doesn’t give him the right to tell them not to report.
He should prove them wrong.
He can’t.

Soledad O’Brien is such a phony. In April 2008, Reverend Jeremiah Wright gave a speech in Detroit to the NAACP. One of the things that he said in this speech was that black and white children learn with different parts of their brain, and then gave an “unflattering imitation of the way white pastors speak.” Peoples comments were that he gave a racial speech. Soledad O’Brien, on CNN, was quoted as saying, in a gushing manner, that the speech was a “home run” and “really funny.” When questioned about the things he said in the speech, she would say things like, what he really meant was …..or what he wanted to say was… Once again she’s covering the truth and being racist. Just as with the Henry Gates incident. In an appearance on Anderson Cooper, the night or so before CNN’s “The Moment of Truth” she appeared enraged that it was a racial profile against Gates. She said that she got calls from her FRIENDS saying it was all about Gates being black. She went on that show with the purpose, at all costs, to destroy the credibility of the white police officer and throw him under the bus. When Cooper was talking she wanted to make the point that Gates said “Thank You” to the police officers. By mentioning that, she was purposely misrepresenting the truth by playing down Gates’ belligerence and racial remarks, which she didn’t even mention. Even Gates’ attorney and friend, said to the media that he used very strong language. Colon Powell and President Obama both said he should take blame in the incident. I have seen this in many occasions with her, where she doesn’t speak the truth and hides the true facts. Another time on Anderson Cooper, Cooper said to O’Brien that Senator John McCain hasn’t brought race into the campaign, like he said he wouldn’t. You would think her response would have been something like, that’s great because he shouldn’t. Instead she strongly insinuated that he would, even in the last week of the campaign. Also, her questioning style, in interviews is completely different with a white person than it is with a black person. Like in her interview with Henry Gates in “The Moment of Truth” She just went along with his lies. I have seen several comments on various websites about her racism. There are many other examples I could give of her racial bias, dishonesty and hypocrisy. She seems to consider herself to be black. She mentioned in an interview that her parents made it clear to her “you’re black” and that’s all there is to it.
She’s all about being #1, she wants the world to revolve around her. She comes first, before her family. She wants to be a celebrity figure and a star. In interviews she says she works 6 days a week, mostly out of town, and on some holidays. She goes to gala events, concerts, lots of entertainment events, as a single woman, leaving her husband and kids behind.
I think Soledad O’Brien is a very poor journalist. What ever happened to the days of CNN with Bernard Shaw and Judy Woodruff? T hey were honorable journalists. You could believe what they said. John Las Vegas
