FishbowlDC points out that Fox News reporters have yet to get a question in at any of Barack Obama's recent press conferences.

Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs says there's "nothing nefarious" going on. "I would tell them, get a good question and stay tuned."

Fraud News has never been fair and balance,they twist the truth and comeout with outright lies!! They deserve to be shut out because they wouldn't know how to tell the truth !! They incite and preach hate and that is the opposite of what God is all about. God is Love!!!

The National Enquirer isn't even allowed in to listen, Faux Five should be honored.

Love it! Gibbs says "get a good question" and then they will get picked. Well it'll be a long time before Fox are able to formulate a good question, so we're safe fromtheir inanities for a while.

So much for diversity. Obama will call on black journalists and white journalists. Male and female journalists can ask questions and even the handicapped and terminaly hideous (Helen Thomas) can ask questions as long as they are good little liberals and write praise filled scripture about "The One."

Helen Thomas has sat before more Presidents in her honored career as a White House pool reporter; she is a woman of substance and character, with a perspective on history that few can match.

1will on the other hand, resorts to "argumentum ad hominem" to attack those who are the greatest threat to their position.

Move on, 1will, doesn't FOX have a "rant and rave" comment string for disgruntled conservatives?

Look up Bush's favorite journalist Jeff Gannon.

People ultimately have more power than Fox if they choose to exercise that power.
Sign the FCC News Quality Rating System petition
Bringing the Fairness Doctrine back is doing the same thing over, expecting a different result.
Although the Fairness Doctrine is better than nothing, a news rating system is better than the Fairness Doctrine and it's doing something different and more effective...

NO FAIRNESS DOCTRINE
----------­----------­----------­------

Let them have AM Radio.... how many young folks listen to AM Radio.

It is unnecessary. Rush, Hannity, O'Reilly, Coulter have killed the Republican Party by controlling the message more than the politicians. They've mock, shouted, ridiculed and mugged themselves into caricatures which do more harm to the perception of the (r)s than it does to (D)s.
The FAIRNESS DOCTRINE would also give them an ISSUE to focus on instead of all of the thinly-veil outrage the spews already.

We Have the Internet and the Blogosphere which has a much faster growth rate.

Let them keep and thrive on AM RADIO; It's nothing more than preaching to their dimwitted tone-deaf choir anyhow.

Fox News wasn't all that pressed to ask Barack any questions before, why start now? Fox has managed to settle for making up what they consider to be the truth anyway. Let Fox work at getting an opportunity to present a question for awhile.

And? After 20+ months of lies about him personally and not the issues, why should they be allowed in ? Why? Why? Why?

The people at Faux News were surprised at a black restaurant by black people using knives and forks, they spoke of Obama baby mama, terrorist fist bumps, no american flag pin, made in china, darkened his photos, accused his wife of being anti-american and now they want privileged access to him and all of his innermost thoughts. Wht's the matter with Sarah's thoughts and aspirations. How about Todd, the secessionist? Hey there's always Joe, the Zionist. Huckabee's good for a laugh now and again. Interview the like minds, no one will be able to tell the difference. Billo, Sean and Flush Limpbaugh, Silly Kristol, Joe, did I just say F###? Scarborough and Ward Connerly. Do that and they have a guaranteed sure fire smash hit. Other than those things I can't see anything wrong with their business model. Back to you Andy Colter. Chew on some betel nut.

Every child is taught just about from birth that you do not reward bad behavior. Faux News behaved badly and they are not credible and should not be acknowledged until they clean up their act.

There is no legal mandate for allowing Foul Hoax News unlimited access to the president elect. They have done nothing but slam him for the last 3 weeks. Tough for them! They have been a mouth piece for Neo-Con Nazis for the last 8 years. They can go to the back of the line now.

Is FAUX the Opinion Network that did everything they could to degrade Barack Obama - with made up facts - that were reported over and over and over again?

And they're actually wondering when they will get a question from him? How about when they start reporting the truth for a change!!

If I were O, I would take questions from The Onion before I took them from Faux.
