Congratulations to the major networks who refused to take part in a briefing when the White House tried to exclude Fox. The Mainstream Media recognized the horrible precedent it would set and they stood up for Fox’s – and their own – rights. Bravo!
(Perhaps they remembered that “liberal” once meant someone in favor of liberty before it was twisted to mean someone in favor of expanding government power.)
Facts are what reality makes them. They are what they are. Truth is the recognition of facts. It is up to each individual to discover the facts and recognize the truth. That is a skill available to everyone with an intact brain.
But this is based on the assumption that a person is at least minimally concerned with facts and truth. Too many aren’t. It’s not a matter of Left, Right, or in between, because they all have subjects on which they refuse to think.
This doesn’t even touch on the subject of evaluating the facts, which is where the greatest trouble comes. But that’s enough for now.

Yeah, there is no balance like MSNBC or daily talk show on CBS, ABC, And NBC. Luckily the left leaning Hollywood crowd don’t spew their poison either.
It’s called FREE PRESS. Thank God we have both the New Republican and the Nation. I want to read both.
Rush or Moore, I don’t have to agree to either’s ignorance.

If President Obama leaves FOX NEWS alone, it will eventually rot away in its own putridness.

It wouldn’t help. They’re like cockroaches, so they’d survive.
