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?

Fred's campaign is strictly a fund raising exercise designed to bilk a desperate republican caucus of hard earned dollars. He'll be dropping out any day now to wage a personal war against his mortgage and other assorted debts, and he'll be taking your cash when he goes. Many thanks!@

Poor trolls!

What a predicament for the Cons. They won't diss their Reagan wanna be Dead-Fred yet they are conditioned never to disbelieve their great (F)Oz(x).

Charles Krauthammer and Fred Barnes attacking Ol' Fred, the right wing's ballyhooed savior-du-jour?

This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time... a tag-team mugging, and ALL the wrestlers are wearing torn leotards and hoods with no eye slits!

Didn't Mark Twain write about firing a cannon over the Mississippi to bring up the dead bodies?

Fire away, Faux!!

Fox is getting wackier and wackier. They realize on this sleaze network that when the Dems take the presidency and still control congress their days in the wilderness will have just begun.... Jack Out.

well, well, well. fox trashing a true conservative can only mean one thing: it is a vehicle for the neocons. big surprise, eh? those guys love mccain and guiliani. why? what's the lowest common denominator? those chumps are in the lobbyists' pockets. ultimately, they'd support thompson but only if they must (let's say if the democratic candidate is kucinich or even edwards or obama).

I bet if Fred the Dead were to win the Repooplion nomination he'd tell the world how much he love Fox News.
