I'm not sure that this will be enough to counter Fox News being in the tank for Obama. A message is only as effective as its ability to be heard, and the McCain/Palin campaign is going to run into a lot of trouble finding MSM outlets to advance the message without spin. About all they have left is talk radio, and that's basicly preaching to the choir.

Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes have already met with the Obamessiah, promising him fair coverage and listening to his grievances about perceived attacks on his wife and Jeremiah Wright. Murdoch is the one who actually sought the meeting because he is, to quote, "fascinated by Obama". The result of this meeting was to give Obama an unprecedented platform on the O'Reilly show on the very night of McCain's acceptance speech. Obama has received Aile's personal assurance that "there will be no embarrassing stuff" in the interview. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/story/2008/09/02/ST2008090203320.html

In contrast to the O'Reilly soft ball interview with the Obamessiah, Fox is turning Palin over to Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday. Wallace, of course, is a registered Democrat and has been parotting all the DNC talking points and smears against Palin at every opportunity throughout the RNC coverage. I'll guarantee you that the McCain campaign has received NO assurances that Wallace will refrain from "embarrassing stuff"! In fact, I'm certain the interview will consist almost entirely of "embarrassing stuff".

At this point, sign me...Beyond Disgusted
