How was FoxNews with Obama compared to how CNN is to Trump now?
You know when I stopped watching Fox for even how the opposition sees things? When Obama went on a visit to India for one of those G-something meetings.Fox announced that he was going there on vacation, was staying at the Taj Mahal, was calling in the Seventh Fleet to impress the locals, at a cost of millions, and, last but not least, was planning on a parade of white elephants to honor his presence.They ran that story once, in the morning, complete with horror at this abuse of privilege and American taxpayer money. I stayed tuned to make sure I’d heard right, and I never heard it repeated, or retracted. It just disappeared.They ran the most slanted stories about both the Obama’s. Michelle too. Mostly their opinions, and never positive ones, mostly slanted and not even basic balance used. They seemed to get huffy if he took a day off and wanted him chained to his desk. So very unlike what we see now that Trump is on the links about the same level as he’s on his desk.CNN does report what Trump’s said and done, but they’re not outright lies like what Fox did with Obama, and CNN doesn’t gin up fake outrage over feeding kids vegetables. Fact is Trump is his own worst enemy. Not the media, and not CNN.
How come Fox News is never held accountable for their lies?
Yup, mix bee, the enquirer is why John Edwards is now totally exposed. 1. Glen Beck's show is an opinion show. You could write "the sky is purple" and it is nothing for which an accounting is required. 2. Birther issues? How about transparency with the remainder of his documentation? 3. Racism? I cannot claim 24/7/365 recall of fox, but I don't think he has been called racist. Proof required. 4. Indoctrination of children? No, no need for Obama to do that, he has teachers for that. 5. Prolonging the recession? Yup, that is a legitimite claim. If you cannot understand a failed stimulus bill (designed not to work) and a two year muddle over tax rates preventing investment, you cannot comprehend the truth behind that one. 6. Intentionally raising gas prices? Of course not. Doing nothing to lower them? You can answer that one however you like. 7. Quadrupled the debt? No. Simple math. He has merely nearly doubled the overall debt. He may have quadrupled the annual deficit. Clarify. 8. Monspotgribblefritz. Just checking if you are reading. 9. Obama clearly continued the misguided Bush policies regarding TARP and bailouts. Sad. He could have done far better. 10. Rigging elections in WI? No knowledge on that one, but a pretty serious accusation. ANY NETWORK (or BLOG) or (YA-hoo) can say whatever they want (until the first amendment is repealed), and it may or may not be wrong or incorrect. The MSM (mainstream media) has very rarely felt the need to correct their incorrect biased reporting or their errors or their biased reporting of portions of events / reports / facts. Life -- get one.
Why did Fox News's Dana Perino say "we did not have a terrorist attack on our country during Bush's term"?
Last night on Fox News, host Sean Hannity whined — as he usually does — about how the Obama administration doesn’t use the term “war on terror” (which is actually a good thing). Former Bush administration spokesperson and current Fox analyst Dana Perino joined in, complaining that no one is calling the massacre at Ft. Hood a terrorist attack. She then made this astonishing statement: PERINO: And we had a terrorist attack on our country. And we should call it what it is. Because we need to face up to it so that we can prevent it from happening again. HANNITY: I agree with you. And why won’t they say what you just so simply said? PERINO: They want to do all of their investigations. I don’t know. All of the thinking that goes into it. But we did not have a terrorist attack on our country during President Bush’s term. I hope they’re not looking at this politically. I do think we ought it to the American people to call it what it is. Watch the video : http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200911240056
