Fox needs to be put in check.

what are you on about? no one is trying to outlaw it.

the only means of 'power' being used is that of words.

the white house is publicly debunking the myth that fox is a legitmate news organization.

besides fox employees, the only people i see crying like spoiled children are the rabid right wingers here on TD. reading jet's recent posts is akin to listening to a dog who has had its tail caught in a doorjamb...."yelp! yelp! yelp!"

You did notice the "....." did you Ray, slander/libel legal action, if that is what they are trying to do?, is using other means than just a war on word's, refusing to appear on FOX and maybe directing other top Dem's to do the same thus shutting out FOX and it's viewers, is not just a war on words!! it is akin to censorship, a holder of Public Office is duty bound to answer not only to his followers and friends, but also his political enemy's/critiques.

Obamas administration trying to classify FOX as "not a news organisation" and thus legitimise that they don't get the same service as other news networks is plain wrong, it is not up to the White House to decide what is a News organisation or not, that would be up to the public Ray.
