Bill Burton Isn't Taking Any Bull From Faux News Channel
Daily Kos —
Bill Burton calls FOX out for its agenda-driven political programming, enraging FOX anchor Megyn Kelly. It's amazing how calm Burton manages to remain throughout the whole thing. He showed no anger whatsoever, which seemed to provoke Kelly into an even deeper fury.

Fox News' Megyn Kelly Goes Unhinged On The Air
Hoffmania! —
Wow. You'd think Bill Burton pwned her. Oh...wait...he did. Gee, they really don't like it when someone pulls back the curtain, do they? This one gets framed in gold and placed in the Hall of Fame.
Fox Noise wingnut head exploding
HorsesAss.Org —
Obama spokesman Bill Burton utterly dismantled Fox Noise political operative Megyn Kelly in the clip above. Priceless. And surreal. Is there anyone in this country who still believes some hairdo chanting “fair and balanced” means Fox is actually fair and balanced? Talk about doublespeak. Her efforts to shake Burton were another EPIC FAIL, just like everything else the McCain campaign has tried.
I don’t know how these Fox Noise employees can lie so repeatedly without shame, but that’s what they do. They’re not journalists, they’re paid political prostitutes. There’s ...

Daniel Lubetzky: FOX in the Twilight
Politics on HuffingtonPost.com —
At the onset of the Iraq war in 2003, Saddam Hussein's media clamored about the Baathist Army's impending victory. Its conviction was so strong, you had to wonder if they possessed information that we in the West were not privy to. Then, within hours of the invasion, the house of cards imploded. It was clear that Iraq's State-run media had broadcast pure propaganda, not news.
Five years later, consider FOX News.
I recently returned from a week in Israel, where the only American news station available on basic cable was FOX, as Israel replaced CNN back in 2006 in retaliation for what it perceived as biased coverage of the Hezbollah war. So with only ...
Sunday Talk Shows Open Thread
AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth —
The president-elect's team dominates the news shows today. Rahm Emanuel makes a couple stop, as do key players in the transition. All eyes are on the new team, except at FOX. That network only has a couple of pathetic House Republicans. Let's hope this was an intentional slight from the Obama operation. There is no reason to ever send anyone to FOX News, unless it's to beat the crap out of them like Burton ...
Finally, months in the waiting, an open thread
AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth —
Well, finally went to a Christmas party tonight. Usually have three this evening - for some reason, the same three friends always have parties tonight. So, my friend Matt and I bop from one to the other to the other. All great, and equally fascinating and different. Unfortunately parties two and three got canceled for various reasons, and Joe is home sick tonight, so Matt and I went to the one party in the hood, and it was nice. Lots of olds friends, and some potentially crazy new ones too. One of the neat things about living in DC (and trust me, I rarely find anything neat about living in DC), is that the people you know, your friends, and your friends' friends, are the ...
