Fox article fails to identify Senator Craig as Republican

[antiimperialist]

Take a close look at this article by Fox, titled "Senator Larry Craig: 'I am Not Gay".
Maybe I'm blind, but I do not see any identification of Craig as a Republican, or the usual (R-I) next to his name.

Contrast this to CNN, which in the second paragraph says, "Tuesday, in his first public statement on the arrest, the Idaho Republican said he did nothing "inappropriate."

The USA Today immediately identifies Craig as a Republican, referring to "the Idaho Republican's arrest in a public restroom".

The Washington Post responsible uses the lable "(R-Idaho)".

Fox News is the worst of the worst.

1. Don't worry. By tomorrow they'll

have a big D next to his name like they did with Foley.

2. At least they didn't say he was a Democrat this time.

3. They kinda sorta indirectly get around to it

.."fellow Idaho Republican Sen. Mike Crapo"

Plus, they quote him saying "Jiminy!" - a repub word, golly.

4. It's fun identifying how blatant Fox News' agenda is...

This is very amusing...

5. I'm surprised they didn't identify him as a Democrat.

6. I have started to get very, very worried about the American people

after watching a couple FOX news segments sent to me recently. One was a "news" report exploring whether national health care could lead to terrorist infiltration, and the other about the major threat to public order of gangs of violent lesbians. Trash news (tabloids etc.) has always existed, but the straight-faced veneer of respectability that FOX pushes is really warping the US consciousness, I think.

7. Fox reports to the diddo heads, so they have nothing to decide

8. By now, it's a GIVEN perverts and republicans are synonomous...
