Grow a thicker skin. You are the leader of the free world, for crying out loud. You don't get it 1/10th as bad as do Republicans from the mainstream media. President Obama Attacks FOX News Posted: 06/17/09Filed Under:Republicans, Barack Obama, Media, Obama Administration 3215 Comments + Interviewed on CNBC Tuesday, President Obama vented his displeasure with FOX News, the cable network whose own senior vice president of programming has called it "the voice of the opposition" to the Obama administration. Here's Obama: "First of all, I've got one television station entirely devoted to attacking my administration." Clearly referring to FOX, the president continued: "Well, that's a pretty big megaphone," he said. "And you'd be hard-pressed, if you watched the entire day, to find a positive story about me on that front. "We welcome people who are asking us some, you know, tough questions," he continued. "And I think that I've been probably as accessible as any president in the first six months -- press conferences, taking questions from reporters, being held accountable, being transparent about what it is that we're trying to do. I think that, actually, the reason that people have been generally positive about what we've tried to do is they feel as if I'm available and willing to answer questions, and we haven't been trying to hide them all." What do you think? Is FOX News "devoted to attacking" the Obama administration? http://www.politicsdaily.com/2009/06/17/president-obama-attacks-fox-news/?icid=webmail|wbml-aol|dl2|link4|http%3A%2F%2Fwww.politicsdaily.com%2F2009%2F06%2F17%2Fpresident-obama-attacks-fox-news%2F |

Don't neo-cons cry like little girls about the "criminal liberal media" constantly? What are you so upset about Ernie? The TRUTH hurts, huh? |

He speaks the truth. Fox News has been attacking Obama since his campaign for Presidency started, and he has handled it with class. When a Republican is in power, Fox goes out of its way to put opposing viewpoints down and label the opposition as unAmerican and unpatriotic. When the tables are turned, they see no problem in being a voice of dissent and drumming up the negative state of our country. It's hard to take a "news" organization such as this one seriously. |

The other news channels never question anything that comes out of Obamas mouth, do they? |

I'm starting to get the feeling that Obama is one of those ticking time bomb types. You know, real nice until they snap and then look out. |

Yeah they do. Problem is, you actually have to watch them to see since they don't show those highlights on FOX.

God (yes, I spelled it out. It is OK in the Catholic Church) forbid someone has the audacity to question Primeir Obama. I mean, the rest of the media has fallen in line. FOX News is the only agency with an objective voice on the subject. |

No, they haven't. In fact, the libs on MSNBC (Olbermann, Maddow, fat liberal Limbaugh lookalike who's on before Matthews) are pissing and moaning that he's not liberal enough. But then again, if you only get your news from one source I can see why you would feel the way you do. |

When a media outlet becomes predicable, they lose all credibility. I can tell you what Hannity and Olbermann and Ernie are going to say before they say it.

Please do not insult me by placeing my name in the same sentence as Keith Overbite from MSLSD. Hannity was a compliment, though. Thanks. |

No one would have issue with people asking questions. Just show me when Hannity has ever asked a legit question without already giving you his answer, Fox has never given him a chance to fail, they claimed him a failure during his swearing in. The GOP has yet to give their own answers to anything. |

I am sure you were also complaining about the treatment given to GWB back in 2000 before he took office. You remember, the "stolen" election. FOX has been more than fair in their treatment of Mr. Obama. The truth, unfortunately, is not on his side. |

Are you doing a Colbert impression? The FACTS do not support your theory about Fox "News" being objective. |

He means the election where Al(fraud)Gore didn't want military votes counted.... You know, the very people that were off in foreign lands protecting his sorry ass and keeping it safe..... meanwhile he didn't want them to have a say in the 2000 election. |
