Remember when Fox News wasn’t ‘real news’?

We now know that the Justice Department kept exceptionally close tabs on Fox News reporter James Rosen in 2010, following his trips in and out of the State Department, hacking his personal emails and phone calls. Normal newsgathering activities are being treated as criminal activities by the White House. But consider what the same White House had to say about Fox News back in 2009. You might remember the concerted effort by White House officials to brand the right-leaning Fox News as a bogus news outlet, unworthy of attention.

FOX still isn’t real news since they employ Jerry Rivers and that spinning bloviator BOR, among others.

I’ve been watching FoxNews since before Brit Hume had gray hair.

True that, but the point of the article still stands.

Jeez these bastards really are in an all out war against everything sacred in this country. Unbelievable.

I get only FOX and Aljazera.

Some of the UK media seem to be better.

Pravda too, oddly enough.

I don’t watch it when he comes on. I’m hoping someday the ratings will do him in.

I don’t get FOX news (in more ways than one).

It depends upon one’s point of view. I find all of them steer to the left. I listen to the ‘news’ and weed out the comments and opinions.

Jerry Rivers, BOR, Greta van Gasbag (”How can I tie OJ Simpson in with this story?”), and Shepard “I’m FABULOUS!” Smith.

Real good bunch, there...

I find FOX to be a near complete waste of time (even though I only see it when I’m occasionally on the road).

I find it to be the best news channel on TV. I watch it often. It’s the only news I watch on television. The rest suck.

Well, I ignore all of the “comments” from all of them, other then to laugh at the few Communist toads on FOX.
