Dems See Gain in Taking On Fox NewsPosted on Oct 2, 2006
Within two days of the fiery Clinton-Wallace interview, Sen. Barbara Boxer and former Clinton lawyer Lanny Davis mocked Fox’s “fair and balanced” motto on air. It’s part of a strategy: no more rolling over for the Murdoch empire.

I’m certainly happy at what appears to be something I’ve been waiting to see for years: Democrats growing a set.
That being said, I think many people are overstating the importance of this entire situation. It’s the difference between tactics and strategy… I’m more than happy to see Democrats finally engaging Republicans in the ring but let’s not get carried away with how important this one singular tactic will effect the entire campaign.
Republicans like to argue about things like this rather than the realities of life as they effect the people. Don’t allow this topic to become what the American people see and hear on TV for the next month and a half. There are too many REAL and IMPORTANT issues to discuss and trust me, the Republicans not only don’t have an answer for them, they don’t even think they’re worth discussing!

Joseph Goebbels would certainly be proud of the Fox network. Any student of history can watch the Fox news and experience how a fascist news organization does its job.

Whenever I hear a Democrat say “no more rolling over” I roll my eyes. How much for conservative bias in the media--and it ain’t just on Fox--are we going to have to put up with before the Democrats unite in decrying the blatant G.O.P. bias that’s out there?

About DAMN Time!
They don’t play nice, they don’t play fair. They are dirty fighters, liars and propagandists. They ask leading, presumptive questions, but pitch only softballs to the Mad King George and his band of Merrie Fascists.
It’s time to stop pretending Fox/Pravda is anything but the propaganda wing of the far right and the neocon MFs!
