Is Fox News tilting toward the Arabs?
american thinker ^ | 3/17/10 | Jed Gladstein

I wondered how long it would take after Saudi money was insinuated into Rupert Murdoch's empire before anti-Semitism hit the Fox News airwaves in the form of tug-at-your-heart, pro-Arab, mini-hit pieces against the State of Israel. It didn't take long.

Did anyone notice Shepard Smith's passionate rant against Israel on behalf of the Palestinian Arabs a few days ago? I always thought Smith was just a smarmy, jock-type teeny-bopper. But he obviously knows which side his bread is buttered on, and he is fully capable of getting all lathered up over something about which he is absolutely ignorant.

Today on Fox News, Amy Kellogg did another hit piece on Israel, using a cute little heart-strings-tugger about the peaceful Syrian civilians who picnic on the Golan Heights in nostalgic longing for the times when it belonged to Syria. Of course, there was no mention of the carnage and slaughter inflicted on peaceful Israeli citizens when the Syrians were in charge of the Golan. Apparently, there's no nostalgia in that.

To all who rant against Fox for being "pro-Israel. "anti-Israel", "too liberal", "pro-Arab", "anti-Christian", "pro-this" and "anti-that"......start your own damned network.

To all who rant against posters expressing political and social analysis of the news of the day, government, corporate and societal institutions - on a forum founded for that purpose......start your own damned forum.

When it comes to major news companies, there is not one we can trust. Our founders never envisioned a day like this.

“...and tell the Arabs to take a hike.”

How about “F#CK OFF AND DIE”?

Nope.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

“If Fox begins to take the form of an “American Al-Jazeera” - they just wrote their own epitaph.”

I think Murdoch has a 7% interest in a saudi news organization. Maybe he’s planning on playing the same games as the saudi’s. Infilterate the “enemy” so you can influence their media. Just a thought!

“It is not so much a tilt, as a bow. Possibly leading to a full blown kowtow or grovel. There have also been reports of obsequious sniveling.”

Maybe we could get Brett Baier to ask BO if he would be willing to give some pointers on how to bow and gravel to the islamic umma.

LOL

Well B.H.O. is the man who put the B in bow, the H in humiliating and the O in obsequious.
