FOX is destructive to Obama's version of Amerika, not the America populated by the mainstream electorate.

If you consider actual news and information not found anywhere else corrosive, then your world is upside down.

The comments made by Obama reveal his marriage to a socialist style agenda which he has still refused to reveal in a big picture perspective to the American people. We took him at his word and judged him by who he surrounded himself with.

Given Obama's comments re FOX and his 'friends', we should all be standing in line right now to vote him out in 2012.

Go FOX!

Just go away Obama and the PRC !! ..Pelosi Reed Congress

If they were at the bottom with CNN and NBC I could see that, but of course they have all the top shows and are at the top in rating by more then 4 to 1 to its nearest competitor.

What is destructive is his massive failures and mistakes. He need to take a look in the mirror to see the real problem in America today.

Bingo, and thanks for knowing the truth, so many blantely deny. He needs to keep his opinions to himself, he does not like it, when people do not agree with him in any way, infact he takes insult to this. He just knows what Fox can do to him, and he don't like it! The truth hurts terribly, doesn't it.

Gosh thank you for knowing better to, Obama does not like any entiny that can hurt his agenda, and Fox is one of them, he feels threaten, you can plainly see this, unless your a moron. He cares only about his own being, his agendas, and does not care who gets in his way, or who gets hurt along the way, US AMERICAN PEOPLE. Obama is his own worst enemy and he can't even see this.

The poll findings are vindication of the commercial strategy of Fox News, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch and is the brainchild of his controversial henchman Roger Ailes. Fox News threw out the old model of television news – pitched towards a mass audience across the political spectrum and aspiring to standards of fairness in reporting – and replaced it with an aggressive drive for a niche audience of rightwing voters.

The motto of the network is "Fair & Balanced", but in many respects it is anything but. "Fox News is not really a news network, it's a commentary network. Its news output is a small island in a vast sea of very conservative commentary," said Mike Hoyt, editor of the Columbia Journalism Review whose March issue features a cover story exploring the Fox News phenomenon.

So keep watching and relying on a biased media source drenched in misinformation because that is all the small and biased of mind are capable of absorbing.

He didn't go to a church in Washington until recently, some say it was politically necessary that he did. The health care "death Panel crap" the jury is still out. The pitch was that by passing the mystery bill, too formiddable for anyone to actually read, that whatever it contained was the solution to our problems. I don't know how thier perspective on the Obama Presidency has been detrimental to the expansion of the Republican base, but the outcome has been detrimental to the Democratic base, their enthusiasm has been curtailed, not reinforced, by the current state of our nation.

Fox News is profitable for one reason, and one reason only: people don't like hearing the truth. Which is that Barack Obama was democratically elected by the majority of Americans. His education background beats that of the majority of public officials, and he has prevented the economy from going into a depression. After two months in office before any of his economic policies were enacted, the economy had already shed over half of the total jobs lost from the recession.

But instead of holding Republicans accountable for voting no against typical conservative measures, they chose exploit the ignorance of segments within the Republican base: the elderly, the uneducated, and the racists. You can dismiss it as liberal myths or as race-baiting and such, but the Tea Party rarely attacked Obama on policy and one would be naive to suggest so. Every single complaint was that he was Kenyan, African, and Muslim. You can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of time, but you cant fool all of the people all of the time.

Also note that I agree with conservatives on alot of issues such as welfare reform, and illegal immigration. I just can't stand having my intelligence insulted by folks calling Fox a news channel as it is pure profit driven propaganda.
