Fox News White House correspondent Major Garrett was asked today on the "Brian and the Judge" radio show about the network being snubbed during Obama's third prime-time presser. (h/t Johnny Dollar).
"That was retribution for the Fox network, broadcast network, running with its regularly scheduled programming instead of taking the White House press conference," Garrett said.

The list, ping
Fox News response,”OUCH”
LOL the audacity of these clowns in the White House. Vandetta’s blocking out news organizations. I guess they don’t understand that Fox has a NEWS CHANNEL FNC and that people that wanted to watch the Messiah could choose to watch it... Oh thats right they don’t want anyone to have a choice... Only when it comes to murdering children is there a RIGHT to a choice...
How typically Liberal of them
Who cares? It’s not like he answers any questions all he does is babble...help the children...babble...bash Bush...babble...next question, You from NPR.
The “off” button was my choice!
Don’t you know that if they could, the Obamites would seize all channels of our TVs and cables and satellite dishes and FORCE US to watch the Dear Leader.
I always thought that a president using the networks when all the news networks were showing his stage show was nothing but him trying to ram down our throats his campaign speeches.
Correction:
Uh um uh babble...ummmm ...help the ..ah... um...children.ummm..babble.ahh ummm..bash Bush...ummm ...babble.um uh (insert lie here) ...ummm (insert misquotation of history) ummm..next question, You from NPR...
I walked the dogs.
Obama and particularly we would be better off if he would just send us a PDF copy of his speech, and the networks could stick to their programming. Everyone who wanted could then play teleprompter on their own computers.
I generally support the President having the power to make these types of presentations, but Obama wants it to turn into a weekly love fest. I don’t support that. And I don’t support these just for the purpose of him wanting a chance to look Presidential, when he’s just the Pres__ent.
you should’ve heard the radio clip just played on the Mark Levin show- it was from the lawyer representing creditors owed money by Chrysler- they were evidently told by the WH to accept the deal zero was proposing (29% of what they were owed) or the WH press corp would smear them....
“That was retribution for the Fox
BS! That was a typical 0bama ambush/intimidation stunt identical to the AF1 deliberate act of terrorism in NYC! What a transparent coward grand standing AGAIN in front of the American people. Barry gave msnbc and the rest of the fawning Jackels a show to report about. How obviously juvenile!
Exactly... Maybe Major Garret could use the next press conference to ask if Obama is Proclaiming ...
” All of your TV stations are belong to Us now”
LOL
Would you take them to the White House, and let them water the lawn? Maybe Obama will be out there.
and the aptly named “Lie To Me” took the ratings as far as the programming goes for that night...the clown college media had to combine all the stations total viewing (including the 24/7 “news” networks) in order to beat the Fox channel program....they can knock and snub FOX all they want...but I don’t know if FOX will have time to reply..they are busy taking their money to the bank...ask em how number 1 for years and years and years tastes..I’m sure they’ll tell ya ;)
I washed the cats butt.
(hims a widdle 'big-boned' and can't quite take care of things the way him should)
Exactly, thats who these clowns are.... It is Obama’s responsiblity to uphold the laws the same laws that protect the creditors investment but no, no, no, he is redoing America in his Radical Far Left image.
Absolutely scary, its like when Bush told the world your either with us or against us after 911 this is exactly what Barry is doing but he is doing it to Americans....
Not sure how many noticed that the messiah p.o.s., really did not like the criticism of the tea protesters.
Guess he has thin skin ala Dick Nixon.
It use to drive tricky Dick nuts that he of all people was criticized. Especially after he’d won re-election in 1974 by the biggest margin in history.
Let’s hope this assclown becomes overconfident.
I watched television shows online at www.fancast.com.
I cannot stand to hear him whistle his ‘s’ or drop the end of his sentence. It grates.
Anyone know if that’s part of his hypnotic trance he tries to put people in?
Maybe both.
This administration is filled with small and petty people.
We were thrilled that Fox Network didn't play That One's game! We love "Lie to Me". It's one of the best shows this season!
I agree 100% ,,,whoever the lead is in that show is PHENOMENAL...and the show’s premise is great too..another hit for FOX!
Yes, I heard that too ... too bad we don't have a "real" press corps ... as I said in another thread, this administration is a tree of low hanging Pulitzers for anyone with a brain and some courage.
As if something he says or answers is worth a live broadcast? Just crawl the teleprompter text at the bottom of the screen and don’t interrupt programming.
Fox misbehaved and must be punished, Hugo Chavez could learn from Obama.
This man is very vindictive and hateful, not towards our enemies but only toward US citizens and US companies. He constantly needs to vilify them.
