Fair und balanced
Dems explain why they fucked Fox out of faux debate --
"A month ago, the Nevada Democratic Party entered into a good faith agreement with FOX News to co-sponsor a presidential debate in August...Yeah, baby!
"However, comments made last night by FOX News President Roger Ailes in reference to one of our presidential candidates went too far. We cannot, as good Democrats, put our party in a position to defend such comments. In light of his comments, we have concluded that it is not possible to hold a Presidential debate that will focus on our candidates and are therefore canceling our August debate. We take no pleasure in this, but it is the only course of action."
Robert Greenwald, director of the movie Outfoxed, called the move a "victory for truth and journalism," and Eli Pariser of MoveOn.org said he hoped the decision would "set a precedent within the party that Fox should be treated as a right-wing mis-information network, not legitimized as a neutral source of news."
Credit to Omama for standing up to the propaganda channel first, and to Edwards for kickin' that can a little further so Harry Reid could kick it into the light. I really wonder how the other cable new channels are going to cover this. Interesting days in the Republic..........Lotta shit seems to be happening, (with an abundance of caution,) I just wonder, is the tide staring to turn?
ReplyDeleteIt's about time the Dems responded appropriately to Fox -- next up should be Limbaugh, O'Reilly, etc. They should boycott those assholes and their unremitting propaganda.
