The Satire Of Chris Davis

FOX News Becoming Anti-Obama Network

leave a comment »

New York—As the healthcare debate rages, FOX News continues to run stories that oppose Barack Obama and the White House’s position on a national healthcare.  Since ABC announced their incestuous relationship with the White House, FOX has been criticized by Obama for their attacks on him, his administration and their policies.

And now, FOX has run a story quoting GOP Chairman Michael Steele, and Rick Scott, chairman of Conservatives for Patients Rights.  The story—“Critics Attack ABC News for Refusing to Air Opposing Ads During Obama’s Health Care Special”—is just another in a long line of stories that have aired on FOX that take Obama to task.

“It is unfortunate—and unusual—that ABC is refusing to accept paid advertising that would present an alternative viewpoint for the White House health care program,” Rick Scott said in a statement, noting estimates that potential legislation costs at least $1 trillion of taxpayer money.”

It is exactly these kinds of stories—with reporters doing their job—that has the White House up in arms.  And in the White House’s point of view, FOX News might as well be broadcasting from Rush Limbaugh’s house.  It is exactly this kind of thought that has many the White House claiming that FOX News is the anti-Obama network.

Elective Decisions certainly appreciates it when reporters actually do their job instead of being political partisan hacks.  So we salute FOX News for doing just that.  Their job and nothing more.
