Fox News claims to have found its ‘mole’

America knows Fox News as the country’s highest-rated cable news network. As Roger Ailes told the Associated Press last year:

“I think we do better television than the other guys, and no matter how we do it, they don’t seem to catch up. We seem to out-invent them and think ahead of them, and have better story ideas, better graphics, better on-air talent. We just are better television producers.”
TV talents notwithstanding, what Fox News really excels at is clampdowns. Defined as a “severe or concerted attempt to suppress something,” “clampdown” describes just how Fox News treats the sharing of information about its operations with the outside world.

Doesn’t happen, can’t happen, shall not happen.

That’s why the debut of a new Gawker column yesterday, titled The Fox Mole, was so astonishing. The gossip Web site had wrangled a Fox News employee to spill state secrets from within the tent, including, in the Mole’s first installment, some insiderish footage taken during a break in an interview featuring Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. A second posting hit the site this morning, about bathroom conditions at Fox News.
