Turner Compares Fox's Popularity to Hitler


By Jim Finkle -- Broadcasting & Cable, 1/25/2005 2:14:00 PM

Ted Turner called Fox a propaganda tool of the Bush administration and indirectly compared Fox News Channel's popularity to Adolf Hitler's popular election to run Germany before World War II.

Turner made those fiery comments in his first address at the National Association for Television Programming Executives' conference since he was ousted from Time Warner Inc. five years ago

Interesting article. Someone who wowrks very closely with Ted indicated this caused quit a stir around the office. BTW, she's a shrub supporter. Bet she loves her job today!

1. The truth hurts.
Even if this makes just one Repuke open their minds and question what they've been spoon-fed, it will be worth it.
