The puiblic/media take on the recess appointment of Fox ...... a new page for them?
Yeah, as usual, they're playing the most politically slacious aspects of the whole sordid thing. The fight between Bush and the Dems. Who will win? You know ...... their usual 'Entertainment Tonight'-ish coverage of real news as pop culture.

But .... every time they mention Fox' name, it framed as 'swift boat financial backer' Sam Fox. All in all, that's pretty negative spin.

1. They could also attach the statement that the Swift Boat ads were later
proven to be untrue as well. Even more negatives for the GOP.

2. I still haven't heard anything about the repuke reps in Syria...
Did you know that a court case involving a FOX "news" station in Florida set the precedent that news doesn't have to be truthful? Two reporters were fired for not changing their story about Monsanto's rBGH hormone in milk to Monsanto's liking. They sued and the court determined that the FCC "policy" of honest news is not a law. Now that the military industrial complex owns all the news, I don't expect much honesty. Check it out.
