White House Escalates War of Words With Fox News

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/10/12/white-house-escalates-war-words-fox-news/

Calling Fox News "a wing of the Republican Party," the Obama administration on Sunday escalated its war of words against the channel, even as observers questioned the wisdom of a White House war on a news organization.

"What I think is fair to say about Fox -- and certainly it's the way we view it -- is that it really is more a wing of the Republican Party," said Anita Dunn, White House communications director, on CNN. "They take their talking points, put them on the air; take their opposition research, put them on the air. And that's fine. But let's not pretend they're a news network the way CNN is."

No More Talk Radio Hosts on CNN?

http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/cnn/no_more_talk_radio_hosts_on_cnn_124031.asp

"CNN/U.S. president Jon Klein asked his show producers to avoid booking talk radio hosts"

Hmm, which way do talk radio show hosts typically lean? And they say Fox News is unbalanced.

Press Largely Ignored Incendiary Rhetoric at Bush Protest

It's only patriotic protest if it is directed at an evil white man, otherwise it's hate-speech, fear-mongering, and unamerican.

The White House does its own Media!

Now the public press isn't good enough for Obama, he has to make has own version of the news? Mark my words, while this report is on something barely significant, I wouldn't be surprised if the White House was testing out the format for use in the future. The free press is a cornerstone of our country, without it we are at the whim of tyrants.
