I love how the liberals howl when one network gives conservatives a fair shake. After they controlled media for 40 years.

The campiest recent example

Only the top of the second paragrapah for Frank Rich to flaunt his notorious behavioral disorder. That's enough. Thanks.

Click.

I read half way down before I realized that I was reading a hatchet job from Frank Rich. He's as catty as Dowd. In fact has anybody seen Rich and Dowd together at the same time?

'...most recently, the bogus charges of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, there is a tendency to give administration-favored fiction credibility first'.

How can they bitch about Fox being GOPTV, in the same article they push the DNC talking points. The proponderance of evidence is clearly on the SBVT side, but the DNC/MSM act as though the SBVT has thoroughly been disproven and haven't even bother to insist that Kerry release his records like Bush.

I don't watch O'Reilly any more since his head got to big to fit on my tv screen.

Whatever the explanation — and there are many, depending on the news organization — the net effect was that the entire press came off as Fox Lite

Oh yes, clearly, the press has been too friendly to Bush, that's why they're having problems.

This guy needs to get back on his medication. He makes so many points that are totally and completely wrong and EASILY refutable that the whole article is a clear joke!

Talk about bias. Talk about "whoring" ... he has his head up the rectal cavity of the DNC and their talking points that I am surprised that he can see anything but brown.

Sure the Fox Network could be associated with the Republicans. That is because for years, the media has been so biased for the Democrat way of thinking that when a new channel comes along and trys to move to the center (and even if we concede that it is a little slanted to the right ...) then to wacko lefties - Fox looks like a big-time partner to the VRWC. But where do you begin to refute Frank Rich. How much time do we have? (And why bother trying - because when they are off their meds, they can't be reasoned with anyway!)

Bill O'Reilly is a professional con man who smirks and smiles all the way to the bank, probably without a single sincere thought about politics. I'd rather play checkers with my dog than watch his foolishness on t.v.

The Dano-saur at DNCBS is calling for The President “answer the charges”, and prove that he wasn’t AWOL or defy a direct order to take a physical 35 years ago. Now it is time for Dan Rather-criminal to answer his questions. Why did you knowingly use obviously forged documents to bring charges against President Bush? Why did you try to defraud the American People with your false charges? Who was the source of your forged documents. Until he answers these questions he is guilty of forgery and defrauding the American Public.

In a day when docu-fiction is the rule and the Dirty Rat Michael Mooron is the standard bearer for the Stone-age press then we will play by their rules. Dan Rather is guilty until he can prove himself innocent and in this case it is very likely true. If Kitty Kelly can drudge up sludge with no proof from 30 years ago then we have more than enough proof to consider Dan Rather-guilty. This was the co-ordinated attack from the DNC to damage our President for the Yaaaawn Kerry campaign.

Forging military documents is a criminal offense although someone as powerful as Rather won’t be convicted like one of us would. This was a powerful man using the power of the Mainstream media and the clout of 60 Minutes to topple a government. 60 Minutes was the foundation of investigative TV and has 30 years of distinguished journalism behind it. Unfortunately we got a glimpse into how honest that journalism is. This was the rule rather than the exception as we got a glimpse of their sources, especially the anonymous variety. This time his hatred and desparation made him go off the abyss and into the complete fabrication of evidence. How could he not notice the Kinko’s Fax return line??? Nice that they whited that out before they put it on their Webpage which added 15 mins to Howlin & Co exposure!

If Dino-Dan thinks that W should answer questions from false evidence then Dan needs to answer questions about why he used forged evidence. His charges have absolutely no substance but these charges are valid. So Dan, why did you put these forged documents and signatures of a dead Military Officer on your news program??

This is what happens when 95% of the Stone-age press worships at the feet of moral relitivists like bull clinton. The art of “spin”, or lies as it was called pre-clinton becomes varying degrees of lying. GW has the truth on his side just as the Swifties do. Yaaaawn Tax & Kerry and DNCBS only have lies on their side and must hide from the issues. In comes this mudslinging story and the high risk phony documents that are scrutinized by the Inter-news. The evidence gets blown away in a matter of minutes and the fraud is exposed to the entire world. It’s a new day and the Fathers of Freedom would be proud.

Dano-saur Rather-guilty can resign and DNCBS can apologize to the country for their criminal activity but it won’t matter. The Stone-age press has exposed itself for the Rat spokesman that it is and will never be believed again. They can pretend to be more balanced but whenever they use their well worn phrases, “sources inside the .....” ears will hear “false documents” and a huge mountain of salt will be added. For Dan, he needs to take his own advice and, “answer the charges!” In the Michael Mooron, Kitty Katty world, your found guilty unless you can prove yourself innocent!

Pray for W and The Truth

The NY Times and concepts of journalistic or any other type of integrity are at opposite ends of an ever expanding universe.

The Bush campaign doesn't have to enlist Fox hosts for its staff since they're willing to whore for it without even being asked.

The NY Times has been pimping for the Democrats for over 50 years. What a joke.

Frank Rich works for a newspaper that has not endorsed a Republican for president since Eisenhower - and only because he was so popular. So everything coming out Frank Rich and others is nothing but crap.

I don't see what's wrong with Bill o'Rielly!?

When I am off my meds, I am GANDOR!! Feel my Sword of truth!! !!....
Sorry.......

So..he "trys" to play up his " can-YOU-guess-if-I-am-REALLY- an-egotist-taking-my-part-lightly" act.

Better get off before this turns into a " HATE BILL" type thread.( YOU should have seen ANOTHER thread!! doesn't ANYONE like him??!!)

As a kid...I am always "leery" of people who TELL ME that THEY are " trying to look out for me " if you know what I mean. It's like watching KERRY try to SKATE BOARD!!.....dude.

Tom

" G.O.P. TV"

I agree, this is insain bias. But I dissagree about GOP TV. Fox news actually lets conservatives have a voice, and doesn't spew veiled contempt on republicans. That's such an amazing difference than what America is used to that they're being erroneously called "GOP TV".

One thing Mr. Rich fails to mention is giving credit to the network who has the better message and reports on the party telling it....Dims just do not understand why people who go to a voting booth or turn on a TV station that if it is not in their favor something is WRONG?

I think the left has failed the middle to upper middle class and thats what America basically is......campaigning to radicals, the poor and minorities constantly is not what one needs in its voter base.....The Dims need more people in the know and I am not sure that is possible...Once you know you vote and view REPUBBIE!

So many words. So little to say.

One paragraph would have been both time saving and more funtional.

Something like ... The N.Y. Times thinks O'Reilly will be leaving Fox [oh how I wish] and taking Rathers job at C B/S very soon.

That impulse was most nakedly revealed when a principal architect of the administration's Iraq policy, Paul Wolfowitz, blamed bad news from the occupation on the cowardice of reporters too "afraid to travel" beyond Baghdad to gather all the festive developments. (Mr. Wolfowitz later apologized, but only after he had been repeatedly chastised for slurring the some 30 reporters who had been killed covering his war.)

And where is John Kerry's apology for slandering our fighting men and women?

God bless our troops wherever they may be.
