FOX News Channel reports: Griff Jenkins covered ACORN's 39th Anniversary Gala Awards honoring Sen. Charles Schumer, Rep. Luis Guiterrez and Rep. Maxine Waters at the National Education Association building in Washington, D.C. on June 17, 2009. Our cameras were banned from the event, but ACORN allowed far-left bloggers to attend. A confrontation occurred outside the building.

Glenn Beck will discuss this on his show today at 5pm.

Fox had better start choosing what side it is on. It can’t sit of the fence for much longer.

Considering it’s own by Arabs, I doubt Fox will ever smarten up and become American patriots and fight to expose the enemy within.

I said on a thread yesterday that I think Bozo is trying to push the right to violence. What he doesn’t realize is, a lot of left leaning people are being messed with also. He wants riots and unorganized violence so he can call out the army and declare martial law. I think he is pushing it faster than he intended though. He knows our army, for the most part, will not shoot at American citizens, so I think he wants to get his black panther civilian corps in place first.

Banned Fox News Network, not a good move.

It reminds me of the old adage: "Never get into a battle of words with the owner of a newspaper that buys ink by the barrel".

One of the reasons Fox has the lead in ratings because the rest of the MSM chooses to sugar coat the news about ACORN.

Thank you ACORN for a dumb move.

Am I right in thinking that a large number of Jews in this country voted for Obama?

One associates Jews with success in business; private enterprise. How that squares with The Kenyan and his socialist agenda beats me.

Yeah, the nerve...and even more so when you consider the fact that Hitler and the Nazi regime were classic leftist! That Hitler was right wing is one of the great misrepresentations, or deceptions, in history IMO...

Since 1994, ACORN has received more than $53 million in direct federal funding. _________________

I agree, but I also believe he’s trying to make the whole world mad at America.

When the man surrounded by secret service agents and who flies in Air Force 1 singles out one news network for criticism, it’s not surprising that the group that helped get him elected would bar them.
This is only the beginning. The One has already given some news networks privileged access to his office.

"He wants riots and unorganized violence so he can call out the army and declare martial law. He knows our army, for the most part, will not shoot at American citizens, so I think he wants to get his black panther civilian corps in place first."

For one thing, He can't call out the army against it's own citizens. It's against the laws of the land.

But, then again, when marshal law is declared, the constitution is suspended.

Would the Army obey orders and fire on it's own citizens? I don't know. Depends what they are told about who they are firing at.

I would HOPE that if Obama ever did try declare martial law, that our top generals would take out Obama's entire corrupt government, each and ever Democrat and traitor RINO.

A lot of Jews are communist/ socialists as well.

If Fox News has to sue their way into venues the double-standard libs want to keep them from then I think that's definitely what they should start doing. Starting with this gala. It could set a precedent if Fox was illegally barred.
