1. I really hope the White House has a do-over on its battle with Fox.

And this time they stand their ground.

[Control-Z]

2. And CNN did.

Rick's List.

[Enthusiast]

3. The media is

our greatest challenge.

[DWinNJ]

4. So glad

Fox now has a front row seat at the white house

[SemperEadem]

5. true...the white house did get it right last fall

by calling fux out for exactly what it was. And I can remember how the beltway press fell all over themselves to side up with fux; the white house sucked it back up and went along with the program.

However, a few weeks ago, they awarded this "not a news organization, but a propaganda organization" Helen Thomas' front row seat over NPR.

So. Much. For. That.

6. What to do...

How about any non GOPer going on FOX refuse to answer any questions until their question of "Why did a "FAIR AND BALANCED" NEWS ORGANIZATION DONATE TO ONE SIDE IF THEY ARE TRULY FAIR AND BALANCED" and just keep repeating "answer my question first"

[BetterThanNoSN]

7. A question...

Was this million dollar donation enabled by Citizens United or could Focks have given it without the ruling? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
