David Axelrod: Fox News "Not Really A News Station"

White House Senior Adviser David Axelrod responds to comments Anita Dunn made about Fox News.

"They're not really a news station," he tells George Stephanopoulos. "It's really not news, it's pushing a point of view."

Axelrod is right. Murdoch is an Australian billionaire playing hardball in our politics.

I'm from Canada and everyone I know also thinks that Fox news is a joke, for example in Fox's "news" was the fact that the new Nuclear Summit logo looked like a Muslim flag when in fact it was the Bohr model of hydrogen. If you want to know what real news is like, look at a Canadian news channel like Global or CBC, or try BBC. You know what just watch the Daily Show with John Stewart.

@karanpal17 Wow you are a brainwashed liberal. Good that your country is under conservative now. And the only credible news station with common sense and facts is "The Sun". Face the facts and don't be afraid.

And CBC and John Stewart are just as retarded.

@dullsvillain George Soros is the most dangerous man on this planet and he is a billionaire too. Liberals are very hypocritical. Axelrod has hes head up hes ass.

@karanpal17 I hear that Fox News is actually banned from broadcast over the airwaves in Canada.  Apparently they have a law that prevents lying in the media.

@cano21 his reference to the daily show being more reliable a source of news then fox...

try and understand what you're reading sometime... critical thinking is your friend.... not your enemy.

do some independent "fair & balanced" research on your own using and find out Who is taking Nov campaign funds from China, India and Russia. These foreign contributions are to elect politicians that will continue to OUTSOURCE jobs in their direction. Talk about Job Killing! And since when is keeping Bush tax cuts as they are going to create jobs? The jobs started leaving our soil right after they were enacted along with the subsidies he gave with our Tax $ for big business wanting to outsource

@karanpal17 LOL! The Daily Show? You've got to be kidding. How about the SNL Weekend Update too while we're at it?  This is the most ignorant thing I've read today!

[andyrooney11]

This was a bad move by the White House but I have a lot of respect for David Axelrod so I'm sticking with him. He ran a great campaign and he got Obama elected.

@Fleishman322 msnbc is still a million times more valid than Fox..yea, some of the commentators play childish games vs Fox, but Fox asks for it, and tries to vilify all others as "State run Media" or "Mainstream media"..so theres the real news, based on events and facts, and then there is Fox, based on absurd conspiracy theories, putting fear into the gullable, in the interest of the richest, based on the support of morons who also support pat Robertson..lol
