Obama Gets Fox
June 17, 2009 at 12:41 PM
Obama said this during an interview yesterday with CNBC’s John Harwood:
I’ve got one television station that is entirely devoted to attacking my administration…That’s a pretty big megaphone. You’d be hard pressed if you watched the entire day to find a positive story about me on that front.
Bingo. Interesting too — regarding Fox’s reputation (such as it is and I know they don’t care) — though Obama didn’t name any names, everyone knew he was talking about Fox ahem, “News.”
Back in 2004, when I worked on Outfoxed and then became one of the News Hounds, the notion that Fox was a Republican propaganda tool was taboo. Now it’s like, duh.

It’s interesting that Obama didn’t mention any names, but FOX was in full defense mode all day. Guilty consciences, I guess. LOL @ FOX. All day.
