From Politico:

JOHN HARRIS: Senator, you were offended the other day for reasons that I think a lot of people understood by comments that were made on MSNBC. And in the wake of that, I heard from some of the people on your staff who say, to their surprise, they actually think that Fox News is giving you a better break than MSNBC. Is that your perception?


SENATOR CLINTON: Well, there was some independent study that my staff sent me -- we didn't do it -- but it was some independent study which seemed to suggest that, that in terms of the fairness of the coverage -- you know, look, I'm a mom first. I'm a candidate second. And, you know, I really am troubled by this pattern of behavior and comments that you hear.


JOHN HARRIS: Two-week suspension, you said that's inadequate for what was said. What would be adequate? Are you looking for a firing or something more?


SENATOR CLINTON: That's not my job, John. You know, that's the job of the people who run the network. But I think that they need to take a hard look.


This is like the third time they've had to apologize. And there are a lot of things that they haven't had to apologize for that might have merited one. So I wish they would take a look at, you know, some of the pattern of demeaning comments that are made on their networks.

Fux had Rudy, he gone. They fell to Milton, he gone. Now, to their ace in the hole-hillary. Neoconmen going through their last throes.

You know, that's not a good thing, Mrs. Clinton. I wouldn't mention how much Rupert Murdoch loves you at all, if I were you.

Now, I wonder why Fox News would suddenly decide to be fair to the Clintons?

Could it be that they think going up against her is the only way the Republicans can win. Maybe Murdoch and the gang just can't stomach the idea of an African-American President. On the otherhand maybe it's both. LOL

Does Hellary not realize that Focks News is praying for her to get the nomination, knowing that that is the only way a RepubliCon can win? Or is she really just too arrogant to admit it.

I've got a wonderful idea! She can have a new career as a news (sic) woman on Fox, after Barack is elected President! She would be a wonderful compliment to their already lackluster stable of blonde air-headed women, and who cares if she leaves the senate? She missed today's vote for telecom immunity, one of the most important votes of the year! The seniors seem to love her, and that is Fox's demographic!

Fox News wants Hillary to win the Democratic nomination. The Republicans want Hillary to win the Democratic nomination. Reason: they know that is the only way they will be able to get a Republican in the White House in the election. McCain cannot beat Obama. He CAN beat Clinton.

"they actually think that Fox News is giving you a better break than MSNBC"

That's because Fox is biased toward Republicans.

If Fox News is a friend, then one does not need enemies.

I would maintain that if FOX is Hillary's friend, then WE already know who OUR enemy is.

America is in deep, deep doodoo, my friends.

Not anymore! It looks like Hillary's accusations have suddenly resulted in a huge tilt against Obama. Within the last 24 hours, they have posted stories on MSNBC online regarding race and then a Newsweek piece about the "muslim" slime stuff that I thought we had moved past. They seem to be working overtime to make up to Hillary and are now engaged in gutter reporting. Looks like Clinton should complain more often!

The evidence of MSNBC's racial profiling campaign against Obama:

"Obama feels pull of racial divide"

"Rendell: Some whites still vote by color"

"Newsweek: Will Muslim 'smear' hurt Obama?"

All appearing today on MSNBC Politics section.
