Media Matters' Eric Burns on Fox News' "Goal To Destroy Obama"

[Eyes1919]

WE'RE ALL THE SAME ANTS, NEEDING THE SAME ANT HILL! Fox, CNN and MSNBC all try to divide us, EVERYDAY! "United we stand, divided we fall." We're so busy bickering over crap that doesn't matter we, the people, don't ask the simplest questions like: "Why are there cars that run on water ... and you all do nothing about it?" "Why doesn't the press talk about that?" "Why is there free energy but we still give the oil companies tax breaks?" THINK PEOPLE... THINK. OUR COUNTRY'S FUTURE DEPENDS ON IT!

[auritone]

America desperately needs to get the fairness doctrine back!

The result of the Reagan-administrations decision to get rid of it has been a country more and more devided and more and more mis-informed!

Demand more of your media - ALL the media!

[rrsrichardcheney]

LArry O'Donnel= Liberal FREAK

[digidonny]

I wonder if this voter group pays any taxes and will help bail out the debt this current administration is getting us into .... i hardly think so !!!!!!

[luvs2teach00]

I want to see young voters 18-35, blacks, hispanics, and women rise up in 2010. The GOP and Foxnews knows that they will be doomed if this happens. Democrats will keep the Congress and maybe increase their power. 65% of the voters are young 18-35, black, hispanic, and female. People need to keep this perspective.

[MikeStamm1058]

@luvs2teach00 Is that why foxs news beats MSNBC 6 to 1?!?! In it's ratings

[rrsrichardcheney]

yep...

[luvs2teach00]

@MikeStamm1058 So what you white devil!!!!!!!!

[rrsrichardcheney]

white virgin fag

[MickMan211]

@MikeStamm1058 fox wins ratings because you have several News stations, whom people watch, then you have Fox, which is watched by all the gullable morons..the same ones who watch Jerry Falwell and athe PTL club..and Fox is the only news that tells them what they want to hear.

[jimprjayp]

@MickMan211 So your point is that Americans should become less individual rights oriented and more unified worker labor group oriented? Fox news has been vindicated since this airing by leaps and bounds. The whitehouse criticism is clearly a case of prejudice and voter tampering. Just like any TV program, if you don't want to watch it turn it off but you don't have the right to turn everyone's TV off if you don't like it, even if you are in the majority because we live in a REPUBLIC!

[rrsrichardcheney]

you're living in a fantasy world you virgin Commie moron

Barack Odumbo is the WORST PRESIDENT......

Scott Brown competitive in Ted Kennedy's Senate seat....

you're a CLUELESS DUMBASS...WHY? Because you get your news from MSLSD AND CNN....both CRUSHED by Fox News Channel

[luvs2teach00]

@rrsrichardcheney go to hell!!!!!!!!!

[rrsrichardcheney]

after your dead, you will be in hell

[AtheistJuggernaut]

@rrsrichardcheney STFU u bigoted moron, go watch more faux propaganda, ur brain washing is apparent. We dont fear ur hell, ur delusional, and one more thing fucktard, y dont u get ur facts straight before u make a fool of urself....

[addyr100]

to timmyhaag just because you dont want to go to war doesnt mean your a coward i personally want to join the military simply because i love my country but that doesnt mean i want to die. and so what your saying is that we shouldnt send more troops in. remember shock and awe was that not effective. or should we just leave them all there and let them die without support. and im pretty sure that general mccrystal asked for 50000 not 30000 whos smarter you or mccrystal?

[addyr100]

hmm i dont exactly remember when obama went on fox someone enlighten me ive only seen him go on liberal or somewhat liberal shows and i'm pretty sure that glenn beck gave as much crap to mccain and bush as obama.

love the evil teapartier

[joskemom]

And now we have this weak ass leader who cant figure out what to do about the Afgan war. The General Obama chose made a request over 2 months ago for more troops and in that time Obama has gone on Letterman, gone to ptich the Olympics, gone on the campain trail for dems and constanly tv pitched healthcare. He needs to make a damn decision for our troops out in the field--either fight the enemy or bring our boys home and we will fight the enemy later when we elect a President who is not wimpy.

[TimmyHaag]

@joskemom

I'm curious, after reading your many clever comments; What are your solutions to the problems our country faces ?

Have you ever even set foot in Iraq or Afghanistan in the past couple of years (Desert Storm / Desert Shield doesn't count in my book) ?

I ask because it sounds like you want "victory in ____" so bad you can almost taste it but have you contributed to the cause ?

3 simple questions I'd love to hear you answer.

[joskemom]

So timmy, you ask 3 simple questions. No, I have not set foot anywhere in the Mideast, as if that is relevant. Unless I strap on some weapontry and go over to Afgan, my contribution 'to the cause" will never compare to the volunteer troops who defend our nation which is why our Pres should make a decision now just as the troops have to make life and death decisions at a moments notice. And my main solution to the problems this country face is----elect another Pres in 2012.

[joskemom]

Oh yea timmy, until we get to 2012, solutions to some of the problems in our country like the economy is to lower taxes on the job creaters, tort reform on doctor insurance liabilty, not restrict purchase of healthcare only to your resident state(portablity), tax credit to employers who offer certain insurance, let big bizz use bankruptcy and not bailout, drill our own oil, build nuclear power plants, tell Iran 'hell no' on nukes, give the general the troops he needs. I could go on but, why?

[TimmyHaag]

@joskemom

I'm sure you could go on and on but that would be pointless because your just reciting typical right wing talking points, oh excuse me, conservative talking points.

I find it relevant that you have never done your fair share in the middle east because you want others to go in your place.

Rushing our troops into battle never ends well genius, oh yeah, doesn't matter to you because it won't be your selfish life on the line will it ?

[joskemom]

Hey timmy, why do most of you liberals always think people who dont think like you must read some talking point? It is an ignorant way of just ignoring a counter point to your way of thinking. No matter what I said it would have been the tired sorry line of using 'talking points'. As for my 'fair share' in the mid east, or troops fighting in my place well I guess then the whole damn nation should strap up and go into Afgan or not make a comment at all----it is a stupid line of argument.

[joskemom]

Hey timmy , should Lincoln not fight the cival war since he was never a soldier. So only Presidents who were in the military should be allowed to send troops. The Gen in Afgan who Obama hand picked is one of the best and his boot is on the ground and with his men. He does not want to mindlessly rush troops into battle no more than I would want to see carnage. Therefore, Obama needs to act like a leader, make a damn decision and stop having our troops dangle in the wind as he dances with Shakira.

[TimmyHaag]

@joskemom

So YOU will never put your life on the line for a cause that you support and are happy being a cheerleader for.

In my book, that is cowardice pure and simple.

[joskemom]

Hey timmy, now you are being an idiot. Reading your incoherent rambling appears that because I never enlisted I am somehow a coward. Will Obama not send troops to fight because he was never in the Armed Services? I have answered your questions and given the reasons and you still resort to moronic perceptions of me. You dont know zip of my life experience but you feel you could judge my honour? Next time you make a post, make sure it is not based in absurd ignorance.

[TimmyHaag]

@joskemom

"Incoherent rambling.." What is the English language an enigma to you ?

You're not a coward because you never enlisted, you're a coward because you are a chicken hawk genius.

Nice 'You don't know me' come back, but yet I am the idiot ?

[diogeneeze]

This is so transparently pathetic that I cant imagine anyone buying into it. Quotes from the anchorman in this clip such as Why has the WH finally come out and stated the obvious that the Fox News channel is opinion journalism masquerading as news. Thats not a valid question, its a LEADING question. And its directed to the president of Media Matters from one of his subordinates. Hardly objective, wouldn't you say?

[joskemom]

How does a person take Mao out of context? How do you say you admire Mao and some how claim it was out of context? What we have is an admin that is so left wing it makes Chavez and Castro feel American. I wonder where Obama put the book the Chavez gave him--oh I know, in the same place the bust of Chrurchill used to be.

[jensen1901]

You are trying to take a low level Obama staffer who quoted Mao and make it into a big deal or statement of Obama's world view. The irony, of course, being that it was Reoublican President Nixon who loved Mao, met with him several times and started relations with our respective countries AFTER Mao killed millions. To this day there is a statue of Mao inside Nixon's Presidential library. Was Nixon a crazy left winger?

I really wish more Republicans read books instead of just watching Fox.

[joskemom]

Hey jenson, low level obama staffer my ass, she is the director of WH communications. She is the boss of Spokesperson Gibbs. She was part of the team that got Obama elected. And she is not the only person on team Obama that is into socialist/communistic viewpoint. Vann Jones is gone. Mark Lloyd of the FCC is a Chavez lover and socialist. Obama has another 'czar' that hates the free market but loves Mao. Oh yea, irrelevant about Nixon because he is not president NOW.

[jensen1901]

Does she set domestic or foreign policy? No. Is she a member of the cabinet? No. Is her job to deal with the press? Yes. Sorry but your evil conspiracy talk is just dumb for those of here in the reality based community.

[joskemom]

Hey jen, did I not mention that she was on the team that got him elected? Dir of WH communicatons is a major job, especially as much as Obama loves to hear the sound of his own voice. And she is given the task to impose Obama's attack on FOX News and anyone else who have the audacity to oppose his agenda. Dont confuse facts with 'evil conspiracy', makes you sound foolish.

[joskemom]

Oh and jenson, here is a news flash---people can watch FOX News and read books. And what part of your ignorance led you to believe that I was Republican?--news flash--- I am not Republican. Next time you try to contest my post, bring your brain.

[jensen1901]

I could give a fuck if you are Republican or not. If you watch Fox News and believe any of it that's reason enough for me to stop engaging with you. It's evident by your comments that you either watch Fox News or listen to Rush or some variant (please God let it not be Mark Levin). Anyway, have a good night and remember -- Obama is coming for your guns! lol

[joskemom]

Say jenny, you must watch alot of FOX news and listen to Rush and Mark Levin because how would you know enough about them to go off on people who you think might watch them? Anyway, yea you go ahead and have a good nite also--not that your brain needs the rest.

[yahazif]

For the last thirty years liberals have controlled the dialog on all the major networks, public broadcasting, Hollywood, most of the major news papers, the recording industry and the university campuses. Now you have one cable TV channel that dares to frame its news reporting from a concervative point of view and you would think the sky is falling in by how the liberals react. I love how Anita whines about FOXs choice of stories. Yah Anita there are other subjects than the liberal talking pts.

[mznd72]

Wow, you have been drinking the koolaide. If you believe that the news is "liberal" then how come they didn't stand up to Bush and his lies when he was lying us into war with Iraq? Go crawl back under the rock you came from under.

[diogeneeze]

They didn't stand up because public opinion was against the war, and if they were to foment an opposite opinion their ratings could/would drop. And why do so many people ignore that Saddam was a true threat, killed countless, and tried to expand his power through creating war... for his pride, and power, and money? So we DIDN'T find WMDs; we DID find horrible mass graves, evidence of WMD creation, Iraq ignored UN mandates, rape rooms, terror links... I'd go on, but I'm running out of space.

[mznd72]

Saddam was NOT a threat because we decimated his military in the early 90's and continued to bombing Iraq under interationally sanctioned no fly zones we partolled. You tell the 1 million Iraqis that have died (liberated out of their bodies)since we invaded that what we did was right. Sorry, no evidence of WMD creation. Not going to let that lie slip. How about our rape rooms in Abu Garib? We went for oil plain and simple. That is why we only protected the ministry of oil and that is what my...

[diogeneeze]

So with that "decimated military" he was able to take over Kuwait? Bomb it, burn 400+ oil wells, and kill thousands? Display their decimated military might in parades? Sounds right, they just sent a guy with a Bick lighter over the border and claimed it all... Abu Ghraib had violations, but you miss the key differentiator; Iraqs offenses were SANCTIONED by the gov, the US never did that; admittedly the US screwed up. But not on the level of 20+ yrs of torture the Iraq gov meted out.

[mznd72]

no, we decimated their military after they invaded Kuwait, after Bush 1 told him we would not intervene. Our govt did sanction the torture of combatants. John Yu wrote the laws that allowed Cheney and Rumsfeld to order the water boarding of detainees. I am not defending what Saddam did, but if we are supposed to depose leaders who abuse, kill and torture their citizens then lets attack N Korea, China, Egypt, Turkmenistan. Why spill our blood?

[diogeneeze]

The US gov didn't sanction torture; they inacted laws and closures when it was discovered. Where do you get that the US sanctioned this? PROOF PLEASE! Not just random statements.

[diogeneeze]

The US saved WW1! Saved WW2! From time immemorial civilizations have tried to take over the world, and it seems to be a sordid Human Nature. The US, however, has NEVER taken ONE ACRE of land (outside of land to bury our fallen), never tried to expand or gain from war (Although the Mexican-American War to annex Texas could be argued.) Why do you hate the US so much when we COULD topple and take over the world, but just never did. Because the US knows its wrong. Give the US some credit.

[mznd72]

Ummm...yeah. How many civilians did our military kill when they went into Panama to get Noriega? 4,000-4,500 innocent civilians. I love this country and will die to protect the Constitution against enemies foreign and DOMESTIC. In this day and age you don't have to take someone's land to draw wealth from them. You just have to set up the right political and economic conditions so corporations can go in and exploit the people. We have a military presence in over 140 countries. That is an empire

[diogeneeze]

"4,000-4,500?" Yes, you can find those figures. You can also find they range between 300-4,000+; it depends on which report you look at. You went "above & beyond" though with 4,500. Regardless, those levels are disturbing, to say the least. However, it WAS a war (Noriega had declared war on the US), and nothing about war is pretty. Not to mention that Noriega threatened the lives of some 35,000 US citizens there. It'd be nice if you mentioned those "pesky" details...

[diogeneeze]

"Corporations go in and exploit the people?" And we love to club baby seals; I don't mind liberals at all, but extreme liberals who spout this bumper-sticker mentality tire me out very quickly.

And is the US an "empire?" Rome and Napoleon and Germany DID create empires. They didn't do it by having consulates and military bases in countries, they did it by TAKING OVER THOSE COUNTRIES and killing millions. Your analogy is a bit weak.

[joskemom]

hey mznd, do you miss saddam? To say he was not a threat would be news to Irag, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia , America, and oh yea, the Isreal. Remeber saddam was paying the families of the homocide bombers when they attacked Isreal. But I know, as long as you can believe the stupid 'war for oil' bumber sticker logic, facts dont matter. I guess the video tape of saddam's generals telling their leader they can restart the chemical weapons program when the inspectors leave means nothing to you.

[mznd72]

do I miss Saddam? What a stupid question. I miss the 4,000+ soldiers who died because we were lied into war by the war criminals who infested the White House for 8 years. Don't be an ass. Remember, 9/11 happened on Bush's watch and terrorist attacks went up by hundreds if not thousands of percentiles since we attacked Iraq and Afghanistan. If we didn't have war profiteers in the WH they would have treated it like a civil crime.

[joskemom]

Hey mznd72, 9/11 happened under Bush's watch because it was 8 years in the making under the Clinton watch. You know, the President who was offered Osama by the Sudan govt.. only Clinton did not follow up on the offer. Terrorist were at war with us during the Clinton admin but he was too weak to do anything. After 9/11 Bush cleaned al queda's clock and we were not hit during the years since. How stupid and pathetically weak to treat a terrorist attack like a civil crime.

[mznd72]

Bush cleaned al-quaeda's clock? Then why did he let OBL go in Tora Bora? Why were our special forces given orders to stand down and instead Afghan soldiers were sent in? So, Bush/Cheney could have a boogie man to scare the crap out of people like you for the next several years. You are so easy to manipulate it is sad. Go thing natural selection is weeding out weak minded people like you as you line up to be mashed up by the military industrial complex.

[mznd72]

Bush should have listened to Richard Clark instead of marginalizing him but they already had plans drawn up to invade Iraq before 9/11. Why did NORAD have a 100% intercept rate up until 9/10/01, a 0% intercept rate on 9/11, and a 100% intercept rate since 9/12/01. You calling our Air National Guard incompetent? My brother is in the Air National Guard so watch what you say!

[joskemom]

so mznd72, you sound like the idiots who believe 9/11 was an inside job. You also sound like you have a serious case of 'Bush as the devil' syndrome. You did not address why Clinton did not take in OBL but you said Bush let him go at tora bora. As with all you Bush haters all accusations and no evidence, just mindless hearsay and stupid conspiracy theories. And natural selection---how the hell did you make it through?

[mznd72]

marine roommate told me that they were told. If it is our responsibility to take out dictators they why do we help so many get into power? (Saddam, Pinochet, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi (Iran), to name a few. We over thrown democratically elected heads of govt when they won't help us with our political and corporate agendas. This is why South and latin American countries don't trust us. We screwed them over too many times. Read up on you history before you step to me with your BS

[mznd72]

So we didn't find WMD? what? So you are okay with being lied to?? You don't mind the "leader" of your country lying to your face so he and his family can make a pile of money from defense contracts? Are you and American? Saudi Arabia has torture rooms, kills and oppresses their people. Those biological weapons that Saddam used on Iranians and kurds, we sold them to him. Those mass graves came about after Bush 1 told the Shia Iraqis that we had their back if they rebelled. Bush 1 lied to them.

[cartonhead]

Fox viewers are so in denial because finally someone had the courage to make it official. FOX news isn't a news channel, it's not an attack like fox puts it, it's a fact, a very strong fact with very strong evidence. You can stay in denial all you want, it won't change the fact that FOX isn't a news channel, it's a neo-con network that pushes an opinion all day long.

[diogeneeze]

Show us that "strong evidence" then, that Fox isn't getting singled out and attacked by the WH. Why make statements that viewers are "in denial," then only say "someone... had the courage to make it official?" That's not even a train of thought, much less a convincing argument. Supporting facts are good to use if you're trying to get your point across (try this: enumerate the %'s of the major networks on stories run for and against Obama during the election. I suspect you'd be surprised.)

[maganz]

Lawrence O'Donnell is the typical example of the hypocrit democrat psycopath journalist.

[joskemom]

Is the Media State National Barrack Channel opinionated in any way?

[joskemom]

How stupid. The WH is going to fight the 24 hr 7dy Fox news. Fox news never sleeps and they have the highest viewership. If the WH wants to fight someone, maybe they should fight the Taliban--they would have a better chance to win. Maybe Anita Dunn, in a time like this is pendering--What would Chairmen Mao do?

[cartonhead]

turn it off, please stop watching fox. That's exactly what they're talking about, the mao thing was completely taking out of context. Go read the real story.

[joskemom]

Hey cartoonhead, any person who will will watch or not watch a program because the state tells them to is either a drone or an idiot.

[diogeneeze]

I did read the real story, watched it to. It's quite clear; there was no "taking out of context."

[MadArabAbdulAlhazred]

Oh my God! I couldn't stop laughing! It is a testament to O'Donnell's skill as an actor that he could keep a straight face!

To bring on a hack from Media Matters, unchallenged, simply proves that he and MSNBC are guilty of that which they accuse Fox. Are they just stupid, or recognize that nobody really watches them?

[Milt0nBradley]

hahah this is exactly why Fox News receives more views than CNN and MSNBC combined.

MSNBC IS garbage. The only good programs they offer is "Lockup". But when I watch that show I believe they are trying to brainwash me into thinking those criminals are great American citizens. Am I the only one that feels that way?

[cartonhead]

It proves only one thing. Americans are stupid.

[fortsmith1]

MSNBC is kissing Obamas ass.

[Alphasam8108]

left wing crap- haha he is trying to be just as angry as Olberman

[cerebraldamage]

guess the white house only likes it when the news networks kiss it ass,

Worst administration history, what happen to freedom of speech????

[punkypilchardpenguin]

Couldn't agree more. Kissing ass has seemingly become the only way for networks to get ahead, but isn't it funny that Fox has skyrocketing ratings by telling the truth while mockery networks, such as MSNBC and CNN are completely bombing? They deserve it. Start telling the damn truth and maybe people will take you seriously.

[anilraj420]

are u serious type in outfoxed and watch that video on youtube then come back and tell me what u think..i dont care for any news but fox news is the bigest bullshit network there is

[roscoe85cj]

God Bless Fox News ! ... communists running out the back door of our whitehouse faster than Barry ran out the back door of his black theology church !

Did the magic negro actually think he'd walk in and convert our free market society to socialism without a fight ??? Bwaaaa ha hah ha ha ha haaa

cry Obama... cry your whiney-ass eyes out because Fox News isn't going anywhere !

[TheSpankymonkey]

roscoe85cj - By the sounds of it, it is you that is crying. Don't think mouthing off on youtube is fighting, all you are doing is making a noise. Shhh puppy.

[roscoe85cj]

LOL ... FYI fuckdrip, be it what it may but when Barry gets his race war going he'll discover ASAP that moronic black panthers, SEIU members, the mutts at ACORN and various sperm-burping liberals will fall way short of giving him the manpower he needs to win the battle in the streets ...

run Barry, run ,,, see Barry run

[TheSpankymonkey]

roscoe85cj - Like i care for anything you say is "information". If i want informing of anything i will read a newspaper, not listen to a moron who's best contribution to the discussion is ranting like a moron. Like i said, it just sounds like you are crying, like you had your butt hurt and now you want to cry around the place. So, we have established you are not fighting anything, you are just ranting on youtube. Which makes YOU an irrelevant. You might as well just shhh.

[roscoe85cj]

Spanky, spoken like a true believer in the "WHHhhaaaaaa has my country done for MEEeeeeee lately" culture .. ...

p.s. speaking of the "hurt" .. I know when Fox News exposed Barry's ACORN corruption machine and the communists in his inner circle you were terribly hurt and embarassed that hit happened so quickly and easily ... so unless you can dispute those FACTS the STUF assdrip !

[TheSpankymonkey]

roscoe85cj - You are just rambling nonsense now. With that i will leave you to crawl back into whatever inbred breeding pool you climbed out of. No point arguing with the scum of the earth like you, lots of better things to do.... Like... ignore you and your ilk. Have fun whining sore loser.

[roscoe85cj]

?? @ "nonsense" ?? you've got alot in common with your idol, the Coward-In-Chief ... use distraction when you can't dispute FACT ! run coward run ... see spanky run Bwaaa ha ha hahaa

[wizuby]

Somehow it seems like these guys are doing exactly what they claim fox is doing. They cover a real story in an extremely biased way and pretend as if it is the only side of the story. Isn't that opinion masquerading as news?

[HenkelmanAndy]

Fox news reports on what the other news organizations don't (or are told not to) report on... While the other news channels watch the right hand fox watches the left.... "we focused on the economical melt down... they focused on acorn" ... everyone knows about the economy and any other news channel is reporting on the economical melt down.... almost no one talked about acorn

[mrbriscoe2001]

This video is truly unbelievable;I have no problem with someone attacking Fox;but to pretend that CNN and,especially,MSNBC are any better is such a joke,and anybody who believes differently has to be a cretin;the host here is on a show where they do a list of "The Worst People in the World" and 99%of those declared so are Republicans or Conservatives.Then MediaMatters is brought on as if it's a group without an idealogical slant;just check out their Youtube videos;

[HokiesAndDawgs]

This bitch admires Mao Tse Tung. A man responsible for 50 million more morders than Hitler.

Obama and all of his associates are enemies of the United States and criminals.

2012 can't come fucking soon enough.

[jeffmagic32]

Anita Dunn is a committed Maoist, who have lavished praise on the greatest mass murderer in history. (See the youtube video.) Obama sure has a funny way of surrounding himself with communists.

[gothicvampnyc]

I personally would LOVE a truly independent investigative network that would root out corruption and hypocricy in BOTH parties. Unfortunately, Obama is so insecure that if a network isn't contiuously fawning over him he gets angry. To him, a reporter is only truly impartial if Obama sends a "tingle" up their leg! I love media matters defending an education czar who wrote the prologue for Queering Elementary Education - can't we at least wait until Junior High to begin the PC indoctrination?!?

[gothicvampnyc]

This is hilarious! Dunn claims Obama will go on Fox just days after one of her underlings has told Fox Obama will be appearing on NONE of their programs for the next year! Next she will be trying to deny her statement that Chairman Mao is her favorite political philosopher! Here msnbc tries to appear 'investigative' by putting on media matters - the research arm of the Democrat party - while it is trying to bolster Dunn's silly claim that FOX is the research arm of the Republican Party! ???

[Galaview]

FUX News is nothing but garbage news! Most of the people who watch that garbage have a big void in there life they are trying to fill. Birthers, Tea Baggers, Neo Cons, KKK

[Wheeljack35]

WOW I see why MSNBC is getting killed by Fox in the ratings

This bone headed neanderthal saying she was calling out Fox for what is ?

My god idiot stop pushing your liberal veiws and act like a non bias reporter like your supposed to be

[Parley454]

I used to hate fox news under bush...........But Now I watch it every now and then since all the other channels are in super Obama love mode.

[SocialistDemokrat]

Obama's vision for the radicalization of America isn't going to happen. His cult followers may try to demonize the mainstream media but all that does is shine a spotlight on their far-left agenda. An agenda that includes the redistribution of wealth and an expansion of the federal govt that puts the former Soviet Union to shame.

The bankrupting of America, the elimination of the dollar as the world currency and the marginalizing of our Nation as a world power. This is the face of the far-left.

[kittenagogo28]

Officially fighting back?! Officially acting like children not having their own way as ALWAYS! Don't say anything bad about the bama EVER! I have never seen anything so undignified as the WH going after a news channel because they don't like them reporting the actual news. Oh wait, doesn't Hugo Chavez do this? This is going to backfire on this child some call a president.

[SirTimbo]

Oh that's a riot, I love your sarcastic wit. Oh wait were you serious when you called fox a news organization?

[kittenagogo28]

SirTimbo,

Do you wonder why Fox kicks every cable news channel's butt all over the place in the ratings? Or maybe it occurs to you that when the WSJ surpasses USA Today as the number on newspaper in the country that people are looking for someplace with actual news. Sorry, but these pansies just don't want anyone exposing what they are actually doing. Look at the bama's approval rating! He sucks, he's a liar and people are having dumb, uninformed voters remorse!

[dkkght46]

Obama should be more afraid of going on MSLSD with Tingle Matthews because ole slobber boy will give him a spit shower. O dumbo is stoopid and a crybaby whiner. Can't handle being asked real questions. Let him keep it up, it just makes more people watch FNC. Maybe they'll learn something. He doesn't realize that fighting with the media only worsens things. And my gosh...to pick a fight with Fox News...the biggest media outlet!!! Wow...is Obama ignorant too?

[joesphx19]

Media Matters is what, the attack dog of the DNC, George Soros, what? These bastards have had it their way for so long they can't stand the light when it shines on them. Fifth Columnists is what. The ground zero for the communist surge in America. Well, I guess you can die trying. That's just a manner of speech, you know.

[imaginepeace63]

Media matters quotes the right and nothing more.

[hmfddawg]

MSNBC (Lawrence O'Donnell) and Media Matters (Eric Burns) discussing biased reporting by Fox. Talk about deflection. Their organizations are essentially  arms of the current admin and Fox News and Conservative talk radio are their only voices of dissention. This is why there is an all-out effort right now to shut down conservative voices. MSNBC is at the forefront in leading the effort because parent company GE stands to profit heavily from a gov't takeover of health care. Follow the money.

[HarrySeeword]

I miss Ike hitting Tina.

[bazookars]

Wow... GO REPUBLICANS!!! W00T

[themankap111]

I have to say that it is interesting that it took so long for fox news to called out for what it is. Opinion based. And just because you share the same opinions that you want to hear on fox, doesn't make it a news channel. Period.

[HarrySeeword]

But Larry O'Donnell and Keith Olbermann are the picture of objectivity, and journalistic integrity, right?

[SirTimbo]

The difference I believe is in the practice, Keith and Larry are less of an arm of the democrats and more akin to socialists, where Fox is almost a Republican tool.

[HarrySeeword]

Thanks Mrs. Dunn. I was so busy watching FOX that I was completely unaware of two wars and a financial crisis.

Get in the way of the Obama agenda, you must pay the price. FOX is definitely number one on the radar. The post-racial, post-partisan president, wow.

How are you liking the Hope & Change?

[TooBrutalOrTheFuture]

Meh...Obama is doing just fine in "destroying" himself.

His plummeting approval ratings is evidence of this.

[LeGioNoFZioN]

the claims of this video are more humourous than anything else. MSNBC is simply the lefty version fo fox, supporting Obama the way Fox supported bush.

American journalism is dead.

[beelz3333]

mediamatters is clearly a partisan group who only ever criticize people fro criticizing democrats.

[TheNilesLeshProject]

Thankfully MSNBC would NEVER stoop to partisan journalism...other than by definition journalism takes an opinion and expresses that opinion by presenting facts...it hilarious that MSNBC claims that

FOXNEWS is alone in these practices

...and of course thankfully we have not heard about any negative ACORN stories since before the elecion last year.. dooh!

Turn off your TV if your head hurts. obviously the FOXNEWS magic is too powerful for ordinary wizards

[foshea]

I remember the day the US forces commenced air operations against Serbia during the Yugoslavia war - the lead article on Fox was about a cat saving its kittens from a burning house. Its interesting they are ashamed and embarrassed by their behaviour.

[ND066]

Media Matters! Oh my gosh! They're real objective, certainly not opinion journalism masquerading as news.

[PoliticalSkeptic]

They are left wing but they are not liars. Ron Paul is right wing he opposes everything about Obama but his opposition doesn't have lies in them. Just to give you an example of how to be fair opposition.

[KlPi79]

FINALLY! I Can't believe it took them so long to see that Fox "News" doesn't do journalism.

[jkjnt69]

Obama has lost touch with the american base of this country. His war on small business and apethy for the military I don`t think he ever wanted it.Now he`s going to war with america`s favorite T.V. show FOX(check the ratings before you start crying!)Over educated DUMBASS!Have you ever had to produce any actual results?Just like carter lets get`em out and get`em out quick.Reed,Pelosie, Frank, Acorn, the zars, all of it.Unless you want your streets to look like Chicago. Thats the legacey here.WTF!

[midevalcheese]

The GOAL should be to destroy the Freemasons or even the Illuminati.

This is sh*t.

[noliberalzone]

the MSM and media matters had put out so mush misinformation about Bush during his 8 years .. they can go bark at the moon and get over themselves .. it is our turn .. there still is freedom of speech in this country.. the last time I looked.. the libs are just pissed that no one is just laying down and taking their shit hahahahahaha

[noliberalzone]

clapping for the president of Fox news .. better then the whiners on msnbc all they do is trash other networks.. they dont know how to report.. media matters is trash .. what the liberals are not liking is conservatives are fighting back.. look at how these so called saints treated Bush there was no respect for Bush.. I will give Obama as much respect as was given to Bush. there has been misinformation on the liberal news channels for years.. how does it feel??

[7tmo]

Come on man we have to be better than that. We should be creating a new one not living out life in revenge on Repubs or Liberals. The new generation should learn from mistakes of the past and if you are really unbiased try to make a new one. To me when people say I will treat Obama the same as Bush was treated or when liberals justify Obama by bringing up bush is the same concept of blacks saying they will treat whites how slaves were treated. Or america treating muslims bad,lets really change

[noliberalzone]

But the liberals are not willing to change.. I used to be a democrat and found out the hard way how ugly they are .. look at the daily kos and the democrat underground .. when the liberals change then come talk to me about changing ..

[7tmo]

Now you know having seen both sides Liberals are just as stubborn to change as Conservatives. Switching from one side to the other is not an option 4 me. I dont beleive in Liberals defendingeverything Obama does or dosent do, yet I dont agree with Conservatives bashing him on every single thing he does. If we continue to wait for others to change we will wait for ever let people to have debate without the slandering of an opposite opinon. U know Dems arent going 2 change and Repubs wont either,

[7tmo]

Come on anytime Obama does anything besides what people think he should be doing he gets critized. Yet they wonder why he hasnt got anything done. Its his fault for trying to be so nice to the other side, yet even with that he is called a tyrant. Fox is biased yes but they feel its their job. They try their hardest to make the administration to look bad. I do think it is risky yet bold for the white house to strike back.

[dantheleo]

This is what this administration does, divert attention from important issues. We still have more than 15.1 million of our fellow Americans unemployed waiting for this administration to do something... anything! Most of obamas speeches his number one and two priorities are government run health care & cap and trade. Two huge tax increases, penalties or fines for ALL Americans. Who is obama looking out for, special interest groups or the unemployed?

[junkforkaryn]

everywhere i go Cluster Fox is on the television set. doesn't matter if i'm part of a captive audience at the doctor's office or the bloody car wash where nobody watches-- it's always THERE lurking in the corner of the room. the sound doesn't even have to be on! think my 'television is on and nobody is home' theory is part of the reason for such high ratings? wishful thinking?

[fupackers]

Opinionated? Wow! MSNBC has room to talk.

[fupackers]

Bill Ayers and Acorn is a good thing?

[tubette1]

I'm sorry, but the folks that think MSNBC, CNN, CBS are doing the same thing have completely drank Fox's koolaide and they have you exactly where they want you.... zombies.

No, none of the news channels have organized protests.Nor has comedy central.

[NuLLx42]

real news:

TyT, the daily show, and colbert report

[Rodney92]

Fox is a vile organization. They are hurting America.

[TheBravo345]

Its all propaganda to one extent or another; on both sides.

[sunofwill]

All major news-media outlets are completely slanted, but Fox News takes the cake.

[silentonall]

MSNBC, CNN, CBS and so on. They are all soooooo very jealous of FOX because people listen news that matters. The Obama cronies don't stand a chance.

[bobhardball]

I can´t believe you are defending FOX and condemning the other (mainstream) media. They are all the same! They would say and to ANYTHING to get higher ratings and hence make money! They don´t believe in Conservatism or Liberalism; all they believe in is money, money and money. Is that so hard to understand?

[silentonall]

Actually, I have not watched TV since August of 2006. All the news I get is on the Internet. Yet, look at the viewer rating for these networks. FOX trumps them every time. While I do agree that it's all about money(ratings-advertisements) FOX has been winning out over the other networks 8 years straight. The thing about FOX is their news is 'mostly' based upon pressing matters that America needs to hear.

[bobhardball]

Here is the (hidden) truth about FOX: It´s the one and only channel with a conservative line-up, and its pundits understand better than anyone the concept of infotainment. This might be enough to get higher ratings, but it is the surest way to dumb down the audience. How many FOX viewers thought, that Bush was right about Iraq and the healthcare system is good as it is? At least 70%, and that is THE problem!!!
