Is Fox beating the war drum?
I can't bear to even check, but I know some DU'ers watch to see what they're talking about.

So, is it full-scale bomb Iran cheerleading yet?

3. From the look of things, yes.
We had barbeque at a little local dump. Faux was on the wall-mmounted TV. The sound was muted.

First, Condi went blah blah blah. Then, Dick was out walking around. Followed by Rummy. Then, Junior himself made a brief appearance.

Looks like everyone's weighing in for another srike at the M.E. :(

4. Maybe they can dust off the old "Bomb Iran"
song parody from the 80's.

11. Do bears shit in the woods?
Hey guys,

I did a report on how Fox (Studio B) covered Bush's response to Seymour Hersh's article in the New Yorker about using nukes against Iran. It was very slickly produced, with staged photos, key fear words and the same old/same old from George Bush.

http://www.newshounds.us/2006/04/10/iran_nuke_showdown_president_said_we_will_use_diplomacy_first_didnt_we_hear_this_story_before.php#more

Thought maybe you might want to use it.

Thanks,

Donna

12. not always, as seen here
Edited on Fri Apr-14-06 03:23 AM by Neil Lisst
remember when the White House was going to have an ethics seminar at the White House in the wake of the disclosures about Libby last fall?



The very first print publication to use one of our cartoons on its Op-Ed page was the newspaper mentioned, which is a member of Cox Newspapers, a generally liberal leaning newspaper chain. So we did this cartoon, using their newspaper name and banner to memorialize our first publication in a cartoon.

We've gotten their Sunday Op-Ed page every week since, about 5 months. It's the largest newspaper between Tyler and Houston, about 200 miles. There's a Chicago paper that is using us now, too.
