I Googled the story. There were 9,830 returns. Name a newspaper, news station that you would put stock in. They will be carrying the exact same story.
Of course you will see it your way, but first off: the AP is about as liberal as the Huffinton Post, 2-the Huffinton Post chose to run the story, so far, no one else has or certainly not made it a number one story, I do admit, many will pick the story up, I am also aware most of the printed media is liberal or very liberal and 3-the administration and the feds will do anything to try and bring down FOX. Anyone, with a brain, regardless of your leanings can see that.

Are you aware of all the law suits the feds having going right now against anyone or anything that might be considered conservative or anti-Obama? What about the suit against AZ?

Oh, and can you explain why this is news now, when it happened 3 years ago and she is still on FOX?

I think you know very well what was meant by that statement: the majority of people who watch news types of programming depend on FOX.

Nita! So anyone who disagrees with you is missing a brain??? oh my....

You are simply wrong, but choose to believe if you will that Huffington Post is the only media who have chosen to run this story. Don't equivocate by saying 'at least, not made it a number one story.' You know that news passes very quickly and whatever sells is what the number one story is.

HP is a blog, and yes they are liberal, but does that mean the story about FOX news is off-limits? So what, they posted the story. That was yesterday and today it's another story that's 'number one.' Literally. I just checked their site.

No, I am not aware that the Feds are suing every conservative they can find. And the AP is liberal? Would you be kind enough to explain that statement because I don't see the basis for your statement.

The lawsuit against AZ is a little cumbersome to discuss in single posts, and I believe there are several threads on that already.

My comment about a brain had nothing to do with people disagreeing with me. We have many friends who certainly have great brains that lean a different direction than we do, my comment (which you are spinng so much you must be dizzy) has to do with the administration doing anything they can to bring down FOX news. Most people, who pay attention to what is happening right now, from our Presidents remarks down know this.

AP liberal: just read their reporting. I come from a family of reporters and PR people, I remember the days when this wasn't so true but it is today.

I don't need to have you tell me about the AZ law, I follow all news, here, radio, TV and print media. I gave that as an example of what is happening with the feds right now.
