Fox Gets Alittle Payback For Their Sliming Dem

[illinoisprogressive]

Too bad more democrats don't give Fox alittle of what Senator Obama has in recent weeks.

I love this.

Slander me, screw you. Ahem, I mean, you air lies about me, get used to the cold shoulder, baby.

Sources tell The Sleuth that the Obama camp has "frozen out" Fox News reporters and producers in the wake of the network's major screw-up in running with the erroneous Obama-the-jihadist story reported by Insight magazine.

"I'm still in the freezer," one Fox journalist said, noting that the people at Fox "suffering the most did nothing wrong." (It was "Fox and Friends" host Steve Doocy who aired the Insight magazine piece, which reported that operatives connected to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) found out that Obama, as a child, was educated at a Muslim madrassah in Indonesia.)

Another Fox journalist called the network's airing of the story "unfortunate" for the network's journalists who have to cover Obama and who are being adversely affected despite not being involved in the incident.

Since the madrassah incident, Obama has given interviews to ABC, CNN, CBS and NBC -- pretty much every other network except Fox. Sources close to Obama acknowledged that they're not thrilled to play ball with Fox journalists, but they stopped short of saying they are freezing the network out.

No one is suggesting the icy conditions are permanent. In fact, a thawing of sorts may already have begun thanks to two telephone conversations Fox News Channel CEO Roger Ailes had with Obama. ...

1. Give Fox NOTHING, Barack

until they SPECIFICALLY AND PUBLICLY admit that the story WAS false, that they SHOULD have verified it first, and that they're sorry they ran it. And that goes double for the Washington Times!

2. Could we get the other Democratic candidates to follow suit?

Wouldn't it be fun if NO democratic candidates answered Fox news questions or granted interviews through the election. They could simply say "I don't count you people as journalists; if the republicans want to ask us questions they can e-mail them to us."
