Now that FNC has reinvented itself as the "24-hour ACORN and Ayers" network, it's more obvious than ever that they don't give a damn about the pocketbook issues facing middle-class Americans.
Based on a search of closed caption data gathered since Sunday, FNC has has mentioned the GOP's favorite issues (ACORN and Ayers) nearly thirty percent more frequently than they mentioned the GOP's least favorite issues, the economy and the middle class.
The numbers are staggering:
Combined, FNC has mentioned "ACORN" or "Ayers" 1,231 times
Compare that to 963 references to "economy" or "middle class"
FNC's propaganda puts it out way out on a limb. Combined, MSNBC and CNN have made 798 references to ACORN or Ayers. Remember, that's both networks, combined.
Put another way, FNC has mentioned ACORN or Ayers 50% more often than both of its competitors put together."

I have a question. Why does Fox insist on keeping its idiotic "Fair and Balanced" tag line? Is it like getting a trademark - you need to call something it's not to get a trademark. You can't get a trademark on the word car for a type of car, but you sure as heck can get one (if it's still available) on the name "car" as a brand name for a line of cabinets.

Yeah, Obama looks terrified....LOL!
Who cares if Obama associates with a terrorist? Did they try to find Obama's drug dealer? Nope, not going there!
But what are they covering? Well, the NY Times just did a hit piece on Cindy McCain. What is she running for again?
"The fear is palpable".....yes, but I feel it coming from the Republicans.
Actually, with McCain rising, Palin kicking @ss and Joe the plumber touching the hearts and minds of the American people, what you feel coming from the Republicans is excitement.
Not so the fear and trepidation coming from Obama with his calls of "Remember New Hampshire!" "Remember New Hampshire!"
Did you know McCain was involved in an organization that supported right wing death squads in various other countries?
