The problem with all media is that it has to make money and Fox has a model for doing that. The other outlets follow its lead, Dobbs on CNN, Scarborough on MSNBC, something the Administration has complained about it as part of its attack on Fox.<br /><br />I don't think sny media should have any relationship with any party or the government, call me naive.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04411527807049220749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34867261.post-15662680947797478732009-10-20T17:46:11.588-04:002009-10-20T17:46:11.588-04:00The Administration's criticisms are somewhat j...The Administration's criticisms are somewhat justifiable because no true left-wing equivalent to FOX News exists. The other networks are bending over backwards to find Obama critics whenever they can. John McCain, the losing Presidential candidate, has probably been on the talking-head shows more than any Democrat in the past year. If MSNBC had a relationship with the Democratic Party the way Fox News does with the Republican Party, MSNBC wouldn't give Joe Scarborough three hours a day and have Pat Buchanan on daily as a paid on-air analyst.<br /><br />The other media outlets are closer to centrist than liberal. Only in America does a belief that government can play a positive role in the lives of its citizens automatically make one a leftist.dr sardonicushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198551434246302063noreply@blogger.com
