Fox Outraged (Again)! Newsweek Doesn't Retouch Palin Cover!

Posted by Pete Kotz on Thu, Oct 9, 2008 at 11:10 AM

This may be the weirdest story of the political season. Talking heads on Fox rail against "liberal," "elitist" Newsweek for not retouching Sarah Palin's cover photo. Links to the various Obama covers can be found here.

Fox is mad that other news organizations are taking a political stand. Hmmmmm. Which is the pot and which is the kettle? They wanted to be the only true propaganda machine and now all the other big news makers are on their one sided turf. Just to put things in perspective, Fox News ran footage of Michelle Obama with a title card that said, Barack Obama's Babies Momma. Which is why Fox News is leading the way with tasteful journalism and fairness.
By the way, sorry Republican Conservatives, you are about to lose. And it is because you are not fit to lead. Look what America has become under your watch. IT IS YOUR FAULT. Let me say that again, IT IS YOUR FAULT.

Fox News is so biased... It's almost funny how biased they are.
They merely play to their target audience. If anybody disagrees with the view of the host, they get talked over and never get their message across. It's ridiculous.
(And I'm a republican who will be voting for McCain.)

The reason they get talked over is because the liberals have no message other than "the government should be in control of everything and you should pray to the Messiah Obama." Liberals want socialism, simple as that.
Why doesn't Newsweek put a similar picture of Nancy Pelosi on the cover of the next issue?

Facial hair on Palin? Really? Is whether or not she got her mustache waxed prior to the photo shoot really what will decide this election? I don't think so. You win or loose on merits, this isn't a beauty pageant.

Let me see, the economy is in the dump, we have two wars going on and were winning neither. Yet Fox News talks about THIS? Unreal.

Drew, can you not get a new argument? The "socialist" tag is really getting worked to death these days. Surely the people in the neocon media that tell you what and how to think can come up with something better than that.

Yeah, the liberals all want that the government should be "control of everything". I guess that means the conservitives don't want the government to be in anything. ... oh, except when they take your money and lose it on bum deals. Then it's "oh yes please, Mr. Government, can I have a 700 billion dollar payday?" Republicans are notoriously against welfare, but it sure didn't take them long to cut to the front of the line with THEIR hands out.
