I can see your point. People are bound to react differently to Fred’s approach than to the democrats. I was taking a too-high-up view of the situation, based on what I now agree was a misleading headline and excerpt.
I’m not certain I believe Fred struck the right tone between solid rebuttal and whining, but it wasn’t as clear-cut as it seemed originally for me.
However, that said I was reacting to comments made by some that suggested we should boycott Fox, which was more like what the democrats were doing, and seemed to suggest we were giving into their point about Fox not being a real news source.
Which maybe it isn’t for some people any more.

I would say that Fox is STILL a decent news source, and by far the most balanced in that they have some who approach the news from the right and some that approach it from the left. There are no "unbiased" reporters or anchors out there anymore and they all filter the news through their personal biases. Of course, the fact that there are some reporters and anchors at Fox that do not toe the leftist line makes the dems (and pretty much anybody who watches CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, or any of the rest of the MSM for their news) perceive Fox as being "right-wing". When you're so far off to the left that you would consider FDR or Lenin to be "moderate" then a true moderate looks like the far right.
