No one on Fox has ever laid out the real story of what happened in Honduras, who the players were/are and what it all really means politically.

Although I object to the use of the word "coup," which has the connotation of illegal/anti-democratic etc., Krauthammer stated the facts pretty well here.

Krauthammer et al. on the Honduras coup "A rule of thumb here is, when you find yourself on the side of Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, and the Castro twins, you ought to reexamine your assumptions."

(What worries me about Krauthammer is that he seems to be for Romney.)

Sure, there were a few mentions here and there on Fox of what was going on and they did do a special about it. But overall they did nothing special to clarify that Zelaya defied their constitution, that the legislature acted entirely within its authority, that their supreme court acted within its authority and that 0baMao, Hillary and the state dept. did everything they could to undermine the rule of law in Honduras and told flat out lies to accomplish it.

Nor did Fox News make it clear that the U.S. used economic sanctions to try to break their backs and force them to accept a traitor and a thief as their president and now have succeeded in forcing them to allow him to come back and engage in political activism again.
