      Actually Fox News is being fair and balanced. They are giving adequate coverage of the Tea Parties to people calling Obama a "fascist" , and then equal amount of time to people calling Obama a "socialist".

      See? Fair and balanced! MMFA owes Fox an apology.

      Will the rest of the media continue to ignore this? Or will they do their job?

      You gotta hand it to Fox News though - they have balls. Not only do they not give a damn about their own slogan, they are promoting the hell out of this.

      If only MSNBC had done the same when there was outrage among sane people against Bush. Of course, they wouldn't have dared, lest they be called "liberals". Actually, scratch that, I wouldn't want to see them try. But it would have been interesting to see the contrast in reactions.

      What ever happened to Fox News?  FNC used to tell protesters to go and get jobs.

      Why don't they do that anymore?

          Maybe the Mainstream Media should try telling them to "go get jobs!"  Most of the protesters, pre-January, were too busy Bush-Bashing with their protests, yearning for Obama to be elected so he would GIVE them their "rewards" for dragging themselves to the polls.  I think they are still waiting for my tax dollars to reward them!
