Is the Obama Administration really acting without bias towards FOX News?

CNN anchor Campbell Brown, it seems, has called Obama's bluff. He has made it apparent that he does not believe the Administration's claims to only oppose FOX News because they are "biased".

In fact, he has called them out on not shunning MSNBC for their bias against conservatives.

If CNN isn't falling for Obama's B.S., why should everyone else?

So, what is this really about? Does the Obama Administration hate FOX News because the organization is "biased"? Or do they oppose FOX News because FOX disagrees with them?

For more information, read this article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091029/ap_on_en_tv/us...

    This has been going on for YEARS so why celebrate CNN's "open-mindedness" now when they have ignored it so long and been one of Obama's lapdogs thus far? Remember the anchor lady who did the biased CNN TEA Party interview...? They obviously have ulterior motives since they are low in the ratings while Fox's are through the roof (and continue to rise) and wish to "cash in". If they wish to embrace freedom of the press, they should try doing investigative reporting vice "hula hoop" photo-ops of Michelle and ask Obama some "poignant" questions. To answer your question, if Obama can criticize and censure the American people who dissent from the representative process, it's not much of a step further to criticize the Messenger of the People dissenters who are, after all, "Enemies of America" by that "fine Florida Senator" Grayson!

    Obama is a certifiable narcissist who honestly believed everyone would just go along with his plans to fundamentally take a free country and put it under government rule. He is sorely mistaken, despite the ignorance of many, there are plenty of patriots left in America who will fight to the death to preserve her independence and freedoms.

    MSNBC makes no bones about their bias. They don't pretend that their opinions are news. And it was because of this that the Bush administration shut them out.

    Fox pretends their opinions are news/facts, Fox lies, Fox makes up news and *never* acknowledges when they are wrong.

    They even went to court (and won) for the right to lie and mislead in their "news" coverage.

  • Its true that the administration really should leave Fox alone., if for no other reason than because they are so terrible for the Republican party. A few smart Republican senators realize this.

    Seems to be the rule.

    Bush shunned MSNBC for the same reason.

    Campbell Brown is a female. Thus, your accusation isn't even one that is firsthand knowledge, since you repeatedly call her a "him".. Instead you merely repeat want some right-wing pundit has outlined....
