The news black outs may be related to MSMs having locations in China. We don’t know how much influence that has on our own broadcasts because we don’t know the terms and conditions of their arrangements.
Example, and not indigenous to Fox.

While Fox holds a special niche for pissing off the left and giving us the TONE of news the right likes to hear, I read their web news as my home page daily and IMO they have no high ground as truth tellers. An example would be their straight from the AP wires coverage of the Libby/Plame/Wilson matter, incredulously describing Wilson as becoming targeted by the White House for his “criticism of the administration’s Iraq policy”. It’s no stretch to decribe the media as having a “liberal” bias, but the fact that treasonous opportunist hasn’t been called to walk the plank for attempting to fabricate a scandal to unseat an active commander in chief with boots on the ground is a crime in itself. It’s not to be found anywhere in the media, save a piece from Matt Continetti at the Weekly Standard. It seems with the War in Iraq and Wilson, telling the truth kills the story for the lot ‘o them. Not sure how they arrive at the logic in sitting on Chinagate, though mere mention of it by myself in the past in internet forums brought responses best described as sneering rage for mere hint of aspersion cast upon their pariah.
