Fox's Fair Fight on the Right?
http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2007/10/29/publiceye/entry3424386.shtml

Back in August, the cozy relationship between Fox News Channel head Roger Ailes and Rudy Giuliani was discussed in this space. Ailes ran Giuliani’s mayoral campaign in 1989, you see, so it was curious that Fox was giving Rudy a lot more airtime (25 percent) than any of his competitors in the GOP.

And this past week had the story of how the network barred John McCain from using footage of him participating in a Fox News Channel debate, but not being so strict with a certain former mayor of New York City.


Their “Fair and Balanced” mantra is the source of enough debate on the left. Is it becoming a point of contention on the right now?

1. Naah. Not enough Bushevik Drones left with critical thinking skills to ask
such questions.

"If it was on Bushie TV, then it's true. Bushie TV is ALWAYS 100% fair und balanced."

Like asking if Hitler's unfairness to his right-wing colleagues once he got into Bush-like power would wake the rest of his right-wing supporters up to his basic and base nature.

No. The answer is no.
