(7,820 posts)First, not taking his word that the others said "News" but Fox' didn't- cause yeah, we know they're not above lying (major understatement)
Second, it's friggin' accurate. They're far more opinion and entertainment than a full-on news organization.
Third- the fact that they're whining about this "snub" on air? Hit-a-nerve much?
Editing to add: I'd love to thing this was intentional on the part of someone at the White House in order to make a statement that Fox is anything but News- but I kinda doubt it.

"I don't care, lunch war great....but I guess message received. Anyway Brett and I are ready to go with the "news" part.
The cover is off, Fox, it took the Brits and French to do it with basic journalism skills either negligently lacking or purposely created, in American media.
