In a heated exchange this morning on Fox News Sunday, former Sen. Fred Thompson took host Chris Wallace to task for what he claims is a "constant mantra" of attacks on Thompson from Fox News.

Thompson reacted to two clips from Fox News contributors Charles Krauthammer and Fred Barnes sharply criticizing Thompson's candidacy.

"I don't know if Fox has been going after you," Wallace said, defending his network's coverage.

But Thompson insisted -- "From day one, they said I got in too late --" only to have Wallace interrupt. "Well, there are a lot of people besides Fox who said that."

Watch the full exchange below, and tell HuffPost your thoughts: is Fox News biased against Thompson? And is this a smart move on Thompson's part?

Once again the Republicans can give it, but they can't take it. Poor Fred Thompson, he was the anointed savior, now he can't get any lovin' from his GOP brethren. Fred "yawn" Thompso.....snore.

I hope Joe Torre is immune from owner influence with the LA Dodgers. It would be a pity for the team to be controlled ala Fox news

Chris Wallace rode into broadcast journalism on his daddy's good name and reputation. Too bad he doesn't have his daddy's character and integrity. I feel sorry for Mike, having to watch his son prostitute himself and tarnish the Wallace name in broadcast journalism.
Why any self-respecting journalist would want to work for Murdock and Fox is beyond me. It's obvious the RNC money is behind Fox, and those commentators and reporters are all bought and paid for. They sold their professionalism and souls to the devil himself.

First the Democrats tell Foxnews to screw themselves with the debates.

Then Romney says - No Thanks - to being on a Foxnews Presidential Debate.

Now Thompson is calling out Foxnews for bias.

At some point even some of Foxnews Viewers are going to have to start asking - what's up with Foxnews that even Republicans are bashing them...

Chris Wallace should kiss his fathers butt every day for providing the sperm that created him.

If his name was Chris Smith he would be one of the faceless mid-level, smirking managers who populate most businesses.
