They are more than “In Bed Together” - they are two sides of the same entity. The Democrat Party and the Media are One.

Kinda like the Florida AD taking the officiating crew for dinner and drinks at an upscale steakhouse the night before the Florida/FSU game.

FOX wasn’t invited. Guess that’s why they’ve kissed up to her so desperately during the campaign.

No one from FOX was invited.

Maybe that will change under new management as FOX tilts a bit towards the left. Shep to get a seat at the table?

I am starting to wonder if the ones that aren’t in bed with the DNC are looking at the financial benefits of a Hillary presidency. At least 4 years of scandals, corruption, and investigstions will keep the news cycles very full.

Far, far to long overdue. Fox was the thrill up the leg for quite a few...the hope and dream, 'til they noticed that wasn't water raining down.

Hell, it's time for an HONEST news outlet. No talking heads, details w/out bias. At least the 'net has loosened the strangle-hold over the 'news'; guess that's why it's being given away (too much THINK starting).
