Fox News White House correspondent Major Garrett was asked today on the "Brian and the Judge" radio show about the network being snubbed during Obama's third prime-time presser. (h/t Johnny Dollar).

"That was retribution for the Fox network, broadcast network, running with its regularly scheduled programming instead of taking the White House press conference," Garrett said.

LOL the audacity of these clowns in the White House. Vandetta’s blocking out news organizations. I guess they don’t understand that Fox has a NEWS CHANNEL FNC and that people that wanted to watch the Messiah could choose to watch it... Oh thats right they don’t want anyone to have a choice... Only when it comes to murdering children is there a RIGHT to a choice...

How typically Liberal of them

Don’t you know that if they could, the Obamites would seize all channels of our TVs and cables and satellite dishes and FORCE US to watch the Dear Leader.

I always thought that a president using the networks when all the news networks were showing his stage show was nothing but him trying to ram down our throats his campaign speeches.

Fox will laugh all the way to the bank about this one as they pocket all the ad revenue the Obama toady networks forfeited so they could channel more propaganda.

Obama and particularly we would be better off if he would just send us a PDF copy of his speech, and the networks could stick to their programming. Everyone who wanted could then play teleprompter on their own computers.

I generally support the President having the power to make these types of presentations, but Obama wants it to turn into a weekly love fest. I don’t support that. And I don’t support these just for the purpose of him wanting a chance to look Presidential, when he’s just the Pres__ent.

you should’ve heard the radio clip just played on the Mark Levin show- it was from the lawyer representing creditors owed money by Chrysler- they were evidently told by the WH to accept the deal zero was proposing (29% of what they were owed) or the WH press corp would smear them....

“That was retribution for the Fox

BS! That was a typical 0bama ambush/intimidation stunt identical to the AF1 deliberate act of terrorism in NYC! What a transparent coward grand standing AGAIN in front of the American people. Barry gave msnbc and the rest of the fawning Jackels a show to report about. How obviously juvenile!

Exactly... Maybe Major Garret could use the next press conference to ask if Obama is Proclaiming ...

” All of your TV stations are belong to Us now”

LOL

Would you take them to the White House, and let them water the lawn? Maybe Obama will be out there.

and the aptly named “Lie To Me” took the ratings as far as the programming goes for that night...the clown college media had to combine all the stations total viewing (including the 24/7 “news” networks) in order to beat the Fox channel program....they can knock and snub FOX all they want...but I don’t know if FOX will have time to reply..they are busy taking their money to the bank...ask em how number 1 for years and years and years tastes..I’m sure they’ll tell ya ;)

Exactly, thats who these clowns are.... It is Obama’s responsiblity to uphold the laws the same laws that protect the creditors investment but no, no, no, he is redoing America in his Radical Far Left image.

Absolutely scary, its like when Bush told the world your either with us or against us after 911 this is exactly what Barry is doing but he is doing it to Americans....
