Ted Turner called Fox a propaganda tool of the Bush administration and indirectly compared Fox News Channel's popularity to Adolph Hitler's in Germany before World War II. The retired media maven -- who has locked horns in the past with fellow mogul Rupert Murdoch -- told a room full of media execs in Las Vegas that Fox is the propaganda tool for the Bush Administration adding that while Fox may be the largest news network it's not the best. He followed up by pointing out that Adolph Hitler got the most votes when he was elected to run Germany prior to WWII. The remark reportedly elicited laughs from the audience.
