Fred Thompson Attacks Fox News For Bias!

Oh my irony meter just blew up.

------
This morning on Fox News Sunday, Republican presidential candidate Sen. Fred Thompson (R-TN) “that Fox News is biased against his campaign, charging that the network highlights commentators who have been critical of his run for the presidency.”

After Fox aired clips of Fred Barnes and Charles Krauthammer attacking Thompson’s candidacy, Thompson responded, “This has been a constant mantra of Fox, to tell you the truth.” Thompson told host Chris Wallace that he has the right to “put in the Fox side, and I have the right to respond to it.”

3. are you kidding me?

I am so tired of comparisons of Clinton--a 7 year DEMOCRATIC Senator, who has stood for democratic ideals and fought against Bush, et al--and republicans.

Are you unaware that there is a weekly show trashing Clinton on Fox news? ARe you unaware of the continuous negative media portrayal of her? Instead of LEARNING the truth, you spew propaganda.

2. Bias, meet Bias - nice to meet you!

Republicans are now getting a taste of their own medicine! Faux is so "programmed" for bias that they can't even report fairly about their own constituency - the Republican Party. Ironic indeed! :rofl:

7. It's Freds own fault.

He should have saved the universe like Rudy did on 9/11.
