Go after people and not ins utions; people hurt faster than ins utions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

So far, the only winner in this latest dispute seems to be Fox News. Ratings are up 20 percent this year, and the network basked for a week in the antagonism of a sitting president.

    It could all be written off as a sideshow, but it may present a genuine problem for Mr. Obama, who took great pains during the campaign to depict himself as being above the fray of over-heated partisan squabbling. In his victory speech he promised, “I will listen to you, especially when we disagree.”

    Or not. Under the direction of Ms. Dunn, the administration has begun to punch back. On Sept. 20, the president visited all the Sunday talk shows save Fox News’, with Ms. Dunn explaining that Fox was not a legitimate news organization, but a “wing of the Republican Party.”
    ============================

    I've also heard this on various news reports in the last couple of days.
    The only thing more believable than a NYTimes story is a NYTimes story with an unidentified source.

    If we are talking about the daytime actual newsgroup then I'll go Fox. The two girls on MSNBC and Sanchez on CNN are way more opinionated.

    i like fox news. its entertaining but not necessarily giving all sides of the story. i think the trouble is having commentators as journalists. smith is ok like bair they just deliver the news, smith just happens to have an amazing voice. somehow glenn becks dumbass is now an investigative reporter that exposes how art and sculptures are ways fascism exists or oligarhy.. hannity probably masturbating to reagans picture ...well you get the picture those guys are the trouble

    Maddow/Olbermann Invited to White House Chat with Obama, But Fox Isn't a News Organization?



    Here's a curious turn in the White House vs. Fox News fight.

    On Monday, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow were among several people who attended an off-the-record briefing with Pres. Obama at the White House. Sources tell us other attendees at the two-and-a-half hour chat included Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post, Maureen Dowd of the New York Times, Gwen Ifill of PBS and Gloria Borger of CNN. Perhaps not surprisingly, no one from Fox News was in the room.

    This fact quickly turned into ammunition for the folks at FOX. Last night on "Special Report," Bret Baier revealed the information pointing out that opinion hosts from one channel were being invited to a briefing with the Commander-in-Chief, all the while Fox was declared not a news organization.

    And it continued on Fox & Friends this morning, as the troika talked about the back-and-forth ABC News White House correspondent Jake Tapper had with press secretary Robert Gibbs in the morning off-camera gaggle yesterday.

    No seriously. Why should Obama invite anyone from Fox news to anything when they're obviously strongly against him?
