Media Matters Launches Fight FOX Campaign
AmericanThinker ^ | September 18, 2009 | Kyle-Anne Shiver

Well, well, well look here what just popped up in my email. It's a memo from Media Matters President, Eric Burns. Yes, of course, I subscribe to Media Matters. One must always keep one's enemies close.

Our boy Eric has decided that the one lone TV voice crying in the wilderness in often dissenting fashion to our Dear Leader is one lone voice too many and has decided to launch a "Fight Fox" campaign.

"Dear Friend," Eric's letter begins, "Since President Obama's inauguration, Fox News has officially abandoned its already dubious standing as a news organization and is now engaging in outright political activism, completing its transition into the 24/7 media wing of the far-right conservative movement."

A lot of charts on this site that shows the connections. Makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up.

Time to reveal George Soros to America, and explain, in detail, how he has systematically attacked the Republic with his buying off politicians, organizations and people!

I guess I got the wrong Eric Burns. If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen ‘em all!

WOW! I just noticed that 9/29/09 will be my 9 year anniversary here at FreeRepublic!

And to think I just donated $20 today as a bet (one that I won, but still contributed).

And in all my years here, you are the first Freeper to post 8 posts in a (non-sequential) row that I have witnessed!

Nice job! (not really!) 8^)

The reason for my posting is that a lot of folks were accepting this erroneous ID, as I did myself a couple of months back. The time to stop this is right off the bat, so it doesn’t get ‘established’ as a ‘fact’ coming from FR.

Actually, that makes me feel a little better. If it were the Burns formerly of Fox it would have been extremely low class for him to bite the hand that once fed him.

I wonder whatever happened to that guy? He seemed to come out of nowhere, never did anything else on Fox except that Saturday media review show, and then disappeared completely a while back.

Understood.

I was just teasing you a bit - didn’t mean any harm.

After all, we’re all on the same team, fighting the same enemy.
