Thread: White House advisers say Fox News is not news

I dont think the problem is Fox news.

The problem is all the sucker viewers who will eat up anything that is presented to them.

Most of us from ttp are a step ahead of most every day john doe's. Thing is most people do not discuss politics and just go by what is presented on the news.

If all the news stations talk shit against Obama people will start to believe that obama is crap whether he actually is or not.

If all the news stations talk shit against Bush people will start to believe it because it comes from "the media"

Get the idea?

There is no solution because we have to pacify the monkey with dumbass prime time netowrk shows like American Idol and House.

But the problem is that the White House is making that call FOR the American People...Again...

Right now on CNN.com's home page...the top 5 stories I see are...

1. Balloon Boy is a Hoax
2. UCONN Cornerback stabbed to death
3. Health Costs "Shockingly Higher"
4. Third AZ Sweatbox victim dies
5. Palin makes big move on Website

Right now on FoxNews.com's home page...

1. Balloon Boy hoax - Was the Media In on It? (Reality TV)
2. Karzi votes voided in Afghan Election Crisis
3. Iran warns of US retaliation
4. WH Steps up FoxNews attacks
5. Three runners die in Detroit Marathon

MSNBC.com

1. Fraud Probe leads to Afghan Runoff
2. Dozens of Westerners attend terror camps
3. Does AQ have a new number 3?
4. Hurricane Rick weakens to cat. 3
5. WH Steps up attacks on Fox

etc, etc...

As far as reporting the stories - they seem pretty equal. It's the opinion they dont like.

I get what you are saying.

Although I am not happy to see that there is no mention of the Feds to issue new medical policy to that stuff.

I am not going to say what stuff is but I am sure there is buzz about it somewhere.

Seems Obama did keep his promise in this arena, which I am very pleased. 8)
