And in many cases, such as the ACORN scandal, the Shirley Sherrod NAACP scandal, The National Inquirer revelation on John Edwards' extramarital affair and illegitimate love-child, Trayvon Martin's unreported suspensions and "No_Limit_Nigga" thug activities and twitter/Facebook postings, these were not even Fox News stories.
FOX News simply picked stories from Breitbart, National Inquirer, Daily Caller and other sources, that the liberal media selectively blacked out, to protect the Obamaessiah.They reported from these sources that the rest of the media partisanly suppressed, even as FOX also reported many other stories from the New York Times, Washington Post, Politico, Associated Press and other liberal media.
I'v repeatedly pointed out that a
Pew Research survey from the Center For Journalistic Excellence, during the 2008 election, found that Fox news was the ONLY network that had truly balanced coverage of both Obama and McCain. (40% negative Obama coverage, 40% negative McCain coverage, 22% pro-Mcain, 25% pro-Obama). And all the other networks all tilted about 20 points or more for Obama!
So... there is some quantifiable basis for the "fair and balanced" tagline. Certainly arguably more so than the Obama-cock-slurping liberal media.
