I am not really a fan of the talker shows on Fox OR on MSNBC so much hot air to rile up the faithful. More heat than light usually.

But FOX sure seems to get under Obama's skin. Isn't that the media's job? To keep the President on his toes?

Obama sums up why his agenda is stalled right here:

What is the purpose of the Network if everyone is already developed in their political thinking??? Entertainment?
Oh, please. Are you serious? So, then the same holds true for liberals, doesn't it?

Obama and Obamabots have a problem with personal accountability.


Obama and his Obamabots, don't know the first thing even close to personal accountability.

Obama cannot even admit when he has failed. Let me tell ya, failed he has. No Hope farce, Change for the worse we cannot live with.

Luckily, we have Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert to keep Fox News on its toes or at least alert those of us who do not watch Fox that there is a reason we do not watch it.

There is NO unbiased media in this country.

To pretend that the MSM or Fox -- yes, those are two distinct, separate entities -- is unbiased is a display of ignorance.

It is not my, who is giving FOX Credit, it is Obama, Hillary, the left in general.

What is the fixation with FOX? If they are light weight entertainment, why so much concern about them?

The right seems to understand, they have FOX, the left has MSNBC and CNN and they are sanguine about it, but the left seems to get really bothered that FOX even exists.

The left hates fox because fox destroys the left cable media in terms of ratings.

No one is jealous of the losers.

No, its mostly because people like me don't like something that calls it self news, and then is a political propaganda outlet. Maybe it reminds us of some of the worst things in history.

Not a fan of MSNBC either, but its not nearly as bad.

Just as bad, but coming from the opposite direction.
