The Democrats play hardball, and the Republicans play patty ball.

Clinton actually had about five reporters FIRED from their jobs because they offended him. He threatened their bosses with regulatory trouble. Bush did absolutely NOTHING but sit there and take it. And which of those two did the press like better?

Obama has treated the press like worms. And they lie down, wriggle, and take it.

Fox News carried it, many local Fox broadcast
stations did not. Some did.

Crappola,
Everyone knows the media is in the tank for the dems and the magic negro.
Obamma lamma is a Chicago politician. In other words a crook and everyone is afraid to tell the truth, he’s garbage.
Hell you can snap a photo of him with a teen age boy engaging in sex and smoking crack and this media will cover for the socialist assclown

Nah, the barbarians would jeer him as he was escorted out, then it would be back to business as usual.

Actually, the public is HUNGRY for REAL journalism.
Sooner or later, the survival instinct will kick in.
Sooner or later, some one in the media will decide to make a name for himself or herself.
Yes, I know that the media is in the tank for Obama.
That only makes the field WIDE OPEN for an honest reporter!

I would actually pay to see that. But if that were to happen, it would never hit the airwaves.

Probably true what with the internet today you do not need a publisher to have anything printed like you use to.
I’ve a feeling this clown does not take well to criticism or dissent.

“...he looks on his list to see who is the next reporter to call on based on their previously reviewed questions.”

Is this because he uses the teleprompter at a presser?

I don’t have TV but on the radio the inflections in his voice sound rather robotic...know what I think??...I think O is our first pres who is AI, and that explains the birth certificate mystery.. Remember that movie?

Next time Fox shouldn’t carry it on their cable news either. Show them 2 can play that game. Instead talk spend the time telling people WHY they are NOT carrying it.

As Newt Gingrich said last night, it’s a pretty sad state of affairs when the POS of the US wakes up everyday and tries to figure out what American he will punish that day for not agreeing with him. He is a sick SOB.

I got this email this morning ....

FOX BOWS TO PRESSURE

Fox is already cowering down to the President--

In response to President Obama's complaint that FOX News doesn't show enough Black and Hispanic people on their network, FOX has announced that they will now air "America 's Most Wanted" TWICE a week.

It will kick in sooner if people stop buy products advertised on the PRAVDA news networks/programs.
