        Yeah, and the GOP leaders are privately citing Fox, Beck and Limbaugh as reasons why they are losing ground.

      It's all about power. Some honesty does trickle out once in a while at Fock Snooze.

      Jim is right. The WH doesn't care about the amount of viewers that FNC has. What the WH cares about is the smears coming out of FNC and about the accuracy of reporting in general. No WH is going to successfully run this country when you have news organizations spinning everything they do to make the WH look bad and picking ridiculous fights with each of the advisers in the administration as an attempt to get them fired and disrupt the administration.

      It is clear that Obama and his crew are trying to control the media. It is backfiring and will continue to. Hillary may not be out of it yet, dispite what she says now, when Obama's numbers begin to tank, she'll have second thoughts. But we are stuck with him for the next 3 years +.

      O'Reilly is right, it is Obama who is driving more viewers to Fox, defeating his purpose. They check out Fox and like what they see and hear. He is just not smart enough to see it.

        Good lord . . . stating the truth isn't trying to "control the media." Even Fox's own spokesperson confirmed that Fox's night-time programming, including your crush, is simply opinion programming, no news. That's all the White House said. Truth hurts, FL.

        BTW, FL, I heard a report this morning that the GOP is worried because they believe that it is Fox, Beck, Limbaugh and their ilk who are turning people away from the Republican party.

      Well if that's the case, we won't hear any more complaints from poor, put-upon FOX -- right??

      bill always tries to convince his guests to think a certain way... as if it must be like this or this might be going that way. and if they dont, he either yells them down, or they just take the bait and agree with him. how manipulative.
