Fox News Gives Hannity A Public Spanking

It’s hard to know where the line is with Fox News, but Sean Hannity must have crossed it:

Fox’s Newest Media Star

Glenn Beck vs. Fox

I’ve always thought that Glenn Beck would flame out sooner rather than later. You can’t make your living as a prophet of doom & gloom if the doom & gloom doesn’t come to pass. However, the end for Glenn Beck may be more related to money than from burn-out, according to Howard Kurtz:

Metaphor Fail

Brand new Massachusetts Senator and conservative darling Scott Brown was interviewed on Fox (of course) and asked about the incident in Austin, Texas. His answer was interesting, to say the least.

Cutting And Running – FOX Style

If you want to know exactly how damaging yesterday’s Q&A between Obama and House Republicans really was, look no further than FOX who yanked the coverage when it became apparent what was happening wouldn’t jive with its propaganda.

The Media Gets A Clue

NBC’s Chuck Todd notices that the Tea Party movement isn’t a “grassroots” movement like it’s been portrayed by the media:

Chuck Todd actually gets this right on Meet The Press. Gregory played a clip of Dick Armey trying to say that the teabaggers represent the “center” of American politics as bizarre as that may sound and [...]

The Haiti Disaster Brings Out Teh Stupid

Breaking! From Talking Points Memo: Palin Joins Fox News

This is not a joke, it’s real. Although, come to think of it, it IS a joke.
Maybe, just maybe, this will remove any last vestige of credibility that this network has. And maybe, just maybe, someone in power will review whether this House organ for the Rethugs is living up to its broadcasting obligations.
