white house also now going after fox news which again i don't know if this is
the best move for them
let's take a listen to a report about this me
uh... i i i don't know that it's the best to moved for barack obama to be
specifically calling out individual media outlets as biases foxnews maybe i
don't know that this is a good idea
let's take a listen
here's keenly attuned have gathered
television stations
breakfast entirely devoted
too
attacking my administration amid
that's a prediction that about five that's a that's a pretty big megaphone
might be a typical twenty-four hour stretch fox news broadcasts a full day's
worth of straight news coverage
followed in the evening by a series of opinion shows some of which are
occasionally harsh in their criticism of mister obama
field thomas they are doing all they can
to bring the olympic gold to their beloved chicago indifference okay
that was a report box news
foxnews argues that the white house can't distinguish between news
and and commentary or opinion programs i disagree i'll believe that foxnews is
one hundred percent infiltrated
g_o_p_ talking points and that they are not as they claim to be fair and
balanced
as true as what barack obama is saying
it's a bad idea to call out individual media outlets i think he's keeping to
the level that
richard nixon went to when he blocked out the new york times
there is a hero possible benefit to the bronco bomb administration for calling
out fox news and for the president to do it
and there is a possible downside there's nothing to gain and there is there is
quite a bit to lose by doing this
i think it's funny that
after we talk about him not going on
the one function
when you were so many others
now calling them out
i think
neither of those who didn't both of them together
knock it off but i just on the end n again and that i'm not denying rather
nine were fox doesn't know how many days i think they do more is as much as
anybody health care plan stereogum cancer we're we're from the trailer
familiar
were familiar with all of the fox news and disagreed on this is a really
disagreeing with obama portion dot baja makes a little girl right
and of course br boxes which brought us the war with the world and all i'm
saying is that is true is it is
there's no benefit to the senate opens it up for people like bill o'reilly who
will take a listen to saying
foxnews varun balanced it's just an opportunity for them to talk about how
fair and balanced
they claim to be take a listen
finding is that it seeing the world
goes to the head over here
but we've got this
was in trouble in iraq
this network in this program in your program as well routinely
routinely hammered president bush on a runway suddenly quit we were very
faithful about covering all the bad news that came out of very long period of
time
the criticism made him more reported and discussed at length on fox news but he
had his defenders the warhead is defenders but there was no cheerleading
the result really of president bush on this network when his administration ran
into trouble
but it was not surely you know it was skeptical coverage arrest on south when
the economy sort of while the last september we were right on that okay
here's some examples of exactly why end
hi understand lewis and we understand and we've talked about this many times
we know the difference between the opinion programs and the news programs
examples from the news programs
foxnews attacked were critics as the situation worsened
the transformed proponents of the war into critics when it became convenient
to do so they openly cheerleading cheered she really did however want to
say it for general david petraeus they defended scooter libby
not only cheerleading but they were the propaganda arm often being caught
reading off of the teleprompters tax
that was copied
word for word from republican mailings and talking points
in many cases even including the exact same grammatical or spelling errors
when showing the tax on the screen
so there were times when the there were
known republican emails and communication sent out with errors
and fox news then showed on screen the exact same material
with the exact same typos
and to me that's very clear so again barack obama i believe is right and what
he's saying about fox news with the exception of
one or two anchors here there
but there is no political benefit at all
to call in parties out about this at this point
should have used to
now we should have said was the fox news
is perhaps more critical
of his administration
you know still problem for the same effect but they would've been a much
better way to word it
