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?

Ol' hound dog may be right. Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch has deep connections with Giuliani.

The GOP race just keeps getting more and more entertaining. I never thought I'd see a candidate--if that's what Thompson is--complaining about FOX News, but the surprise is most enjoyable.

Thompson should be thanking the media and he knows it. His "candidacy" has been a creation of the media and the GOP power elite since day one.

Just a few short months ago, you could hardly log onto the internet without being assaulted by reports of grown men and women slobbering over how "Presidential" Fraud is and how his candidacy will transform the race with Reaganesque magic.

Now he's getting a taste of the other side of media hype and it's obvious he can't take the heat.

If it weren't for powerful friends, a lot of luck, and his 6'5" physical presence, Fraud Thompson would be just another sleazy lawyer appearing in commercials on your local TV station.

I'm not a fan of Thompson, but I thought he was reasoned and right. He was entitled to a rebuttal and gave it.

Give it up Fred. This Southern Fried Social Conservative is going nowhere except back to the ample, soft bosom of his trophy wife.
