WASHINGTON White House advisers pledged on Sunday to book administration officials on Fox News despite claims by the president's inner circle that the cable network is a GOP mouthpiece whose programming is geared toward making money.
Last week, White House communications director Anita Dunn said Fox News operates almost as either the research arm or the communications arm of the Republican Party. On Sunday, Rahm Emanuel, President Barack Obama's chief of staff, said, It is not a news organization so much as it has a perspective.
In response to the criticism, Fox News executive Michael Clemente on Sunday accused the White House of continuing to declare war on a news organization rather than focusing on issues such as jobs and health care.

Send that to Roger Ailes...lest they forget how this got started in the First place.
Come on, the MSM does not want money, just a bunch of unquestioning fans to enslave to their favorite Ayatollahs in Congress and in 0bama.
forgot to add (Sarc off)
This is but a distraction for Fox News. Just like the NFL thing was intended to distract Rush. The NEWS is the health care legislation that the White House is trying to force on the USA. It doesn’t matter if administration officials come on FOX News or not. What matters is that FOX News reports on what is in the legislation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And a steady drumbeat needs to continue as the communists in the White House are exposed.
is geared toward making money.
I love how this has become the new evil.
...And the problem is???? (This administration thinks profit is bad)
Oh yes, they are going to get on a start with HC mantra. Appear to talk about Unemployment.........HCR will solve unemployment.
ETC ETC. They think everyone is stupid. They are as transparent as saran wrap.
If this is not true of CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CNN and others, then woe are their shareholders!
See number 49. This is what companies do. This is what their shareholders expect!

In order for Ubama and the rest of the sick scumbags in this White House to be able to exert “pressure” in the first place, they need leverage. Are people actually clamoring to see these freaks and communists on their TV sets? I mean, if Fox’s audience changed the channel when Mark Lamont Hill came on (as many claimed they did), then imagine how quickly they change the channel when a sleaze bucket like Emanuel or Axelrod comes on.
I think Fox should invite these scumbags sparingly. ...And be sure to dictate the time and format, take it or leave it.
As opposed to MSNBC and CNN whose goal apparently is NOT to make money...
And this (profit) is where the employees paychecks comes from, and this is where the government gets it's revenue from....
That’s mighty mollato of them.
As opposed to an administration geared toward *stealing* money???
Easy guess!
Yeah, I wonder why.....
