Fox News Attacks Barack Obama

I don't watch Fox News very much because it is difficult to stomach their obvious bias against Barack Obama. In fact, you may recall that I asked you to sign an online petition demanding that the media stop spreading the 'FOX virus'. Brave New Worlds created the video below that uses humor to show the FOXification of the mainstream media. You can see how FOX guests and personalities distort and misrepresent the statements of Obama and those around him, only to have that pesky "liberal" media pick up the smears and keep on running!



It amazes me how much we let Fox News get away with as it relates to its treatment of Barack Obama. Hopefully, the citizens of Pennsylvania won't be hoodwinked or bamboozled.

    They won't be, EV. I have talked to my 82-year old grandpop in Philly who told me he is voting for Obama. Knowing Moms, she already voted this morning. Our whole family is voting for Barack, as my Mom will be doing her 1-family GOTV campaign. I bet many families are doing the same.

    This stuff pisses me off...I've written my letters and know that other folks have done the same...how else can we get them to stop distorting the truth?

    When so many people rely on MSM for the news, and MSM molds those stories to fit their own agendas, the true purpose of journalism is desecrated...to present an objective view of situations and stories, just as they are...I did at least learn that much at J-school...

    FIXED NEWS aka THE ANTI OBAMA ANTI AMERICAN IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH THEM CHANNEL. I hate this channel so much, they sit there and brain wash every one of their viewers and we wonder why racism is still so alive, just take a look at that channel and you'll find you answer.

    I too can't stand fake Faux news.
    It should be against the law how bias the mass media is, but I guess that's just me and my ranting again I guess
    that's why I love us and what were doing as blogs

    The media long ago decided that Hillary Clinton and John McCain would be the nominees of their respective parties in the 2008 presidential election.

    So far, they've gotten their way with John McCain.

    Will they be able to do the same with Hillary Clinton?

    Michael - Obama had a bad night ... hell, he's had a bad month. He needs to wake up tomorrow morning and get serious about ending this thing...

    Ms. Marvalus - I didn't know you went to J-school. Anyhow, we combat the MSM by sharing information in our own newspapers, our own media outlets, our own blogs...

    nomcbush - I enjoyed visiting your blog. I hope that you & Francis Holland hook up. He has a 'Truth About McCain' blog...

    Eddie, Torrance, Keith - Terrible night in my view for Obama. O-man needs to get his game together over the next two weeks...

    Boo and Len - We need to ensure that the Fox message is counteracted with information flowing from our blogs and our Black-owned newspapers...

    I saw this.

    The message of the corporate media will always be the same, they are controlled basically by the same people.

    If only Democracy Now! was broadcast on network television.

    Much Love

    Richard - I enjoyed reading your inside scoop on the reason Fox News is so anti-Obama!

    All Barack Obama taped interview yesterday with Chris Wallace. It airs this morning (4/27/08) on his Fox News talk show...
