Breitbart.com ^ | May 12,2015 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 05/12/2015 3:24:32 PM PDT by Biggirl

In the latest episode of the American Enterprise Institute’s “Banter” podcast, Fox News regular Kirsten Powers, author of the new book, “The Silencing: How the Left is Killing Free Speech,” took aim at the Obama White House for the efforts it had made early in President Barack Obama’s presidency to delegitimize Fox News.

Kirsten Powers is a rare thing. A liberal who does not hate. And seems to be honest.

Zero does not like the way truth is told on FNC!

I think formal liberal is probably more accurate.

FNC is the only news channel in which I have the slightest trust. I never, ever watch the alphabet DNC news channels or the global communist party’s CNN and MSNBC.

“author of the new book, “The Silencing: How the Left is Killing Free Speech”...”

I wonder if she’s truly coming to her senses, perhaps after years of listening to conservative opponents, or if she is just looking to increase book sales.

Yeah but boy is she liberal. Has a brain, but she IS liberal on many things.
When I used to watch fox, I wanted to shake her sometimes lol. At least she can see fascism when it shows its head.

I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic, and we should stand up and say, "We are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration!" - She who's name must not be mentioned.

This regime has its nose in the wombs of every American woman and its clutches of control on every American family and business. It’s silly to think it shouldn’t be involved in controlling Fox News or any other MSM outlets. This is exactly the government we deserve due to our lack of involvement in keeping it under control thus allowing it to morph into the behemoth that is now is.

Yeah well she is probably still in transition. The fact that she has come this far is good, and she really is too young to remember the previous failed attempts using amnesty as the tool to solve the problem.

I think I read that she stated that Jesus personally appeared to her.

That has an impact. The person that was dating her at the time was trying to get through to her and though he didn’t marry her, he did have an impact in her conversion. That is a summation of the story as I recall.

Wasn’t this Powers one of Carlos Danger’s punches a few years ago......or is it some other bimbo I’m thinking of?

The problem here is so many Obamabots believe everything he says. They have never watched FoxNews but constantly demean it, claiming the info is just a bunch of lies. I have experienced this with family and some friends. They just KNOW FoxNews lies, Obama told them so......They are uninformed on so many levels, and they don't care. Obama has made it his mission to destroy FoxNews.......I wonder how long his FCC and their new powers to regulate the Internet will take to eliminate sites such as FR?

POSOTUS is ALWAYS whining about FOX NEWS. When’s the last time ANY politician complained about “mainstream” government b.s./propaganda? Barry’s such a thin-skinned, paranoid punk. Too much choom? He whines as much as a Muslim.

Try OAN (One America News). It is a refreshing change from the uni-media. especially when all they do is talk about 1 thing for the entire day. OAN actually covers news around the world and other events going on.
They even have historical “infomercials” about America during breaks.

She may be slowly turning into a conservative. She has the required looks.
