Category: News and Politics
I'm sitting here watching Glen Beck today and he starts talking about Anita Dunn (White House Communications Director). Turns out she had some pretty interesting things to say about Fox News.

Now anyone in their right mind knows that Glen Beck, O'Reilly, and Hannity are OPINION Shows.. not News programs. Same as Chris Matthews and Olbermann are OPINION shows, not news programs.

Anyway.. this is what she had to say on
CNN

If you click the link you can watch the actual video, but I'll post a few of her comments here.
Fox News often operates almost as either the research arm or the communications arm of the Republican Party," Dunn told CNN, adding, "let's not pretend [Fox is] a news organization like CNN is." Dunn also took her beef to The New York Times, saying in a Sunday interview that Fox is "undertaking a war against Barack Obama and the White House [and] we don't need to pretend that this is the way that legitimate news organizations behave."

In the most significant exchange on CNN, Dunn stressed that President Obama now personally views Fox as a partisan opponent, rather than a journalistic organization. "When he goes on Fox he understands he is not going on it as a news network at this point," she explained, "he is going on it to debate the opposition."

As an OPPONENT? So that must include the viewers of Fox News too, correct? I mean, we all remember Obama's condescending remarks about "people waving their little teabags around" mocking the very people that could be the deciding factor on whether he is a one or two term President.

Isn't declaring war on Fox News just a wee bit childish? Chris Wallace called it right when he said this Administration was nothing but a bunch of cry babies.

So lets look at some statistics on the cable news programs. (News and Commentary)

Hmmmm... Fox News Channel, #1 in ALL TIME SLOTS. Some of the shows beat out the other channels COMBINED!!


So anyone that watches Fox News, listens to Fox News, or goes to the Fox News website... The White House considers you an OPPONENT!

How comforting to know that the President is AGAINST the majority of the country's population.

Hahaha!  I love the picture!

I don't watch him all the time, a couple of times a week.. he's on at 5:00, so typically I was at work.. but not so much now! LOL
So I tend to catch it a little more often.    He has his moments when he's really out there........but that's why it's called an "Opinion" show :)

Tea party, townhalls mtg, and many websites devoted to saving america...

I know that this is not the whole list but these people are even on a list with the DHS, that I assume includes me.

Great numbers, FOX just celebrated their 13th birthday. Not bad for such a baby of a network to get those numbers.

Glenn Beck is a hero in my house. So is Rush.

But like obama said HE WON, he doesn't need anyone now. He is king of the world. ROTFLMAO...

I remember when that list came out... I think we all qualify for a category or two LOL

I just find it funny that so many liberals and the President, trash Fox News, yet they have THE highest ratings and sometimes higher than the other stations Combined!  He might want to rethink his strategy on shunning Fox News.. He'd reach a heck of a lot more people if he were a little bit nicer to them :)

I watch O'Reilly every night.. I don't always get to watch Beck, but I do when I can.  He cracks me up...  :)

I love fox and friends.  That is the only time I get the tv . LOL I like the whole line up on fox. o'reilly is rabid anti-homeschool but I like him inspite of that. I love neil cavuto. He really is down to earth.

I think another reason fox is doing so well is they have people from both sides. Like that food nazi, name forgotten, who wants the government to regulate who eats, what they eat  and when. I can not stand her but they are fair. It is just she is such a control freak. I think she is hoping for the thong czarina posititon.

I honestly think people in general have been tired of msm for a long time. Shoving a mic in someones face a nanosecond after they lost everything, family, home , town to flood or tornado , then asking them how they feel is not something I want to see.

But Glenn is one breath of fresh air. You know Sarah, people who critize him you can tell they either don't watch him or they have no history skills.  Usually both.

For me personally that he is in recovery from alcoholism is a plus. I can relate. He was telling recently that he fired a guy once for bringing him the wrong pen and what an ass he was for doing that. It takes a really honest person to do that. Getting my information from honest people is important. I can not abide by liars, cheats and thieves. obama comes to mind.

I can't STAND that food lady.....  She is so freaking RUDE!!  The guy with the British accent (can't think of his name) kinda got snippy with her one day when she kept holding up a pair of 'fat pants' saying "Would you want someone THIS SIZE being your flight attendant?"  He seemed taken aback at how blatantly rude she was.  I can't stand when she's on a program LOL   Is there such a thing as "Fataphobes"? 

I never used to watch Glenn Beck, cuz I was always at work.. but now I can :)   I get a kick out of him.. he says it like it is.. and now he has the "red phone" direct to the White House in case he says something that's 'not true' they can call right in and tell him...... So far it hasn't rung!  :)

She was on the other night and they had this heavy set guy who was shoving donuts in his mouth and smoking a cigar. He put her in her place real fast. I can't remember what show it was but at the end the host was telling him next time no name calling, be nice. She was oblivious that she had been put in her place. She has an overinflated opinion of her opinion. Rude does not even begin to describe her. If she is so perfect why does she need glasses? Maybe she is blind as a bat.LOL

I think they have her on to show how silly people like her are. It surely is not to provide any valid information.

Did you see Glenn tonight? He is adorable clever and that red phone is the best thing on TV in 50 years. LOL

yeah she is horrible.  I feel bad for her kids if they ever happen to have a weight problem.  They're probably scared to death to gain an ounce!  I wish I'd seen the guy with the donuts.. I would've been cheering him on!  LOL

When Glen came back from commercial and he was "on the phone"  I thought for a second it was real.. but it wasn't LOL  He's got a good point tho.. obviously what he's saying isn't false, or they would be calling..  :)  I think it's a riot the way he's got that guy sitting up there thru the whole show waiting in case it rings.   So far about the only thing the WH has been able to say he "lied" about was when he said they "never" call on Major Garrett.   Ok, so once or twice maybe...  but they sure don't give him his fair share of questions.

It shows how low our Presidents can go.  Ronald Reagan would have thought it beneath him(because it would have been) to even acknowledge such a thing as an opinion program that attacked him.

At least that's how I remember the guy.  I also remember how my Father's business and income died under Reagan. . . . . .

All those other stations only care about Obama's likes and dislikes.  Like news channels, sports, restaurants, beer, foods, etc.  You know, the important stuff while Fox reports on things like, economy, war, unemployment, the things the other "news" channels cared about for eight years.

What do you expect. Fox news is the only cable news channel willing to openly criticize the President. We all know that Obama doesn't take criticism well, so it's only natural for the Whitehouse to want to fight back. I don't think they realize how silly and petty this all looks. I would think that they have more important things to do than protect the Presidents ego.

Fox news pundits ask hard questions. I think Greta VanSustran is a fine journalist (from Wisconsin I might add). She was interviewing a Republican Congressman the other night and nearly got him to admit that Congress was "for sale". Somebody has to keep these peoples feet to the fire. I personally want as much information about the goings on in Washington as possible. In this day and age, this requires gathering info from various sources. Fox news is an important source for anyone who wants to see the entire picture.

Everybody seems to lump Fox News as strictly Beck, Hannity and O'Reilly.. and tend to forget that they have very legitimate news programs on during the day that are very 'fair'.. Hardhitting yes, and they do ask tough questions.. but they're not afraid to call someone out on something if they feel it's wrong..

I like Greta.. she doesn't hold back.  :)

It does seem pretty childish.. Like you said, there's more important things to be doing than picking on Fox News

It all seems so silly to me. They (left wingers) seem to think that people who watch fox news are all a bunch of brainless, rabid,  right wing lunatics. If you ask me, they are the ones that are acting a bit cuckoo. I was just discussing the "Fox News issue" with "The Old Man On The Mountain ". I enjoy his blogs most of the time, but I think he is wrong on this one:

Why is everyone picking on our illustrious leader in such a horrible way??? He doesn't mean it. The Evil Teleprompter made him do it. It has brainwashed the Messiah into doing its bidding.

This Administration is doing all they can to keep the pot stirred up. They want to keep everyones attention on as many different things as they can so that they can get as much transformation accomplished in America. The DHS report, the lambasting of FOX and any that watch it or any of a number of other things that have come about since the onset of this Kangaroo Court have been for slight of hand parlor tricks.
