" is a 'Halfrican'."
"He sounds like Hitler."
"Will Prez Barack blame America first?"
"Patriotism makes a little uncomfortable."
"He's so liberal, he's anti-American!"

These are just a few examples of the many biased attacks coming from the right-wing Fox News channel towards Democratic White House hopeful Sen. Barack Obama, argues a coalition of media watchdogs and progressive groups in a new video. Brave New Films highlights these and other audio and video clips to demonstrate what the filmmakers call the "Fox News Virus".

Several times! Post war American culture was the height of ....that was the best way of life imaginable-free to drive sea to sea, to be a hippie or a biker or hari krishna or holly roller or just youirself. And that was what mr pig warred against starting in goldwater era. And that is what the pig has to hide from the people today....the truth
