Fox News goes rogue on Palin
SF Chronicle ^ | 11/6/08 | Joe Garofoli

Posted on 11/07/2008 10:22:32 AM PST by pissant

Even as Gov. Sarah Palin exits stage left -- perhaps only temporarily -- back to the frozen tundra, we note that it was Fox News who broke the story that Sarah P. was a bit geography-challenged.

Here is Fox's own Carl Cameron telling us something about Palin that nobody wanted to know. The best part is when Carl promises that there will be an avalanche of more juicy Palinbits to drop from the GOP table in the days to come.

He is a bombastic, blow hard, but he sure pisses off the Lefties...so he's good for something.

Carl either loses his job or conservatives need to sink Fox’s ratings.

FOX’s error is in not reporting the source of the Palin reports. If they cannot tell us who said what, they should tell us nothing at all.

Just noticed Fox is promoting a new show called “Game Plan” with some 38 year old (looks 48) “life coach” who shows anti conservative shots on her webpage. Always nice to know how someone stands so I can take my stand and boycott!

Campaign Carl has never seemed happier.

I quite agree...

Interesting how the McCain campaign is now scapegoating Gov Palin (with FULL FOX support). Seems there is now a concerted effort to damage her for any future political consideration.
Definitely a Kerrigan kneecap attempt.

I've avoided Fox for the past few years...BUT just happened to catch Carl Cameron on Shep Smith/O'Reilly and Cameron's unnamed sources regarding his previous 'off the record' anecdotes about Gov Palin.

My IMMEDIATE IMPRESSION...
Carl could be likened to a breathless, excitable, prepubescence girl just about to bleat out the latest vicious gossip to the clique. He was so animated, spewing words per second, leaning towards the camera, straining as he related his latest juicy tidbits. Deliciously promising more to come.

Buh Bye FOX/msnbc ,....

So, you actually are taking it as true what this unnamed source says? Well then, I have an unnamed source that says that Carl Cameron used to be a girl. Is that credible too.

My sentiments exactly. Leave the woman alone (insert Britney boy crying here).

There is so much they could talk about: BO and his grandmother’s funeral... are they going? Chris Matthew’s out of the closet admission that he’s 100% in the bag for BO — it’s his job.

Grief... Fox news is looking pretty stupid.

Well, since Sarah clearly did not think Africa was a country, I’m sure you have now changed your mind.

Saying “country of Africa” instead of “continent of Africa” in the middle of answering a question does not mean that Sarah “does not know” that Africa is a continent.

No more than what Obama said means he thinks there are 60 states.

Fox sold us out and many people here are foolishly falling for theis McCain trashes Palin nonsense.

Obama did this daily to Hillary’s campaign. Un-namedd sources, leaks and all sorts of nonsense. I doubt anyone in McCain’s campaign said anything. We look like fools falling for this. Rush did the same thing.

Fox News is a sell out. Murdoch’s other properties like the Wall Street Journal, Times of London, NY Post are licking and have been licking Obama’s boots.

Honestly, I wasn't paying that close attention to the item about Africa. Your response is compelling and reasonable. I was trying to illustrate that the "Oh, yeah? Well, your guys are stupid, too!" response is... um... not effective.

I agree whole heartily especially with regard to Oprah. She had a lib victory party on her show the day after the election.

I understand that it is her show and her opinion, but after seeing how all of them acted, I will not watch again. Opera is trying to cover her ass by trying to get Sarah. She has turned off part of her audience and she knows it.

It is not McCain’s people doing it. This is Obama working through Fox Obama TV News. Divide and conqueor. They did this all through the primaries to Clinton. Every day they did it to Hillary.

Rush and National Review should have picked this up.

My guess is no one in the McCain campaign said anything. Stop this breathless “Oh McCain & his campaign workers are bad to Sarah.” They are making us do their work for them

I think that Sarah should refuse all interviews and go on about her life. Ignore them all. They’ll just continue to tear her apart. If she wants to run again, do it and plan it privately. Then, when she feels she’s ready, come out with all guns firing.
