Cologal, Bobfl beat me to it. i was just getting ready to post this news conference. Obviously it was a slip of the tongue, but the point is that if it is a Repub it is blown way out of proportion. Yes, there is shouting on FOX. BOTH sides are trying to make their point. There is no shouting on the other channels because the panelist are all in agreement. Sometimes there is a token RINO that is outnumbered.

You are so right Sally Jo. Bill O'Reilly invites all people no matter their political persuasion. I think he even had Obama on his show. And he usually lets the guest have the last word.

Sadly, this might have been an early symptom of his brain tumor..

I have to disagree with that diagnosis. As a Massachusetts resident all of my life, I can tell you with certainty that this guy has been bumbling speeches for over 40 years. Most apologists have used his alcoholism for an excuse.

I find a conversation about Fox News in this context to be rather funny !

I put this in the same catagory as the move to silence talk radio frankly. Then I read that in today's news conference there was coordination between the WH and Huffington to have a coordinated exchange between the President and the reporter.

Now this stuff has happened before, and it surely isnt shocking in and of itself, but this is a President who said a lot during the campaign about the politics and the transparency, etc, and has shown himself to be somewhat of a storyteller as he does the opposite of what he says.

Then we have people attack Fox news and my question to them would be .....are you attacking the presentation of facts OR are you speaking of those folks who do commentary ?

If you are speaking of the news broadcasts, I would challenge you to submit some examples....IF you are speaking of those who do commentary....different story. But I ask you to listen to the hate mongers on MSNBC in the evening and ask you which of the two networks is CLOSER to fair !! Easy answer I think !

That would have been second in the differential diagnosis.

Since this thread has segwayed into TV commentators I'll point out that Oberman tonite had Geo W Bush and Newt Gingrich as his "worst persons" in the world.... can someone PLEASE get this desperate person some NEW material.... my goodness he looks so pathetic.

Sally Jo.... I found that one also pretty quick but alas it was really late. Also found a reference to Mitt using it and he took a hit according to the link.

One of the Sunday shows I watch is This Week....they rarely yell but on PBS Friday nights there is a round table I used to watch but I gave up because the all scream at each other.

I guess I am more into calm discussions....

Oh this one we can agree...I have seen his show a few times but change the channel now.

He needs to force himself to watch his own program. He may name himself the worsterest . barf
