Sedition? SEDITION?

Now that's a good old word, one that hasn't entered our politics in a long, long time.

My answer: Smile when you say that, Klein, because them's fightin' words.

Fox is the only net that reports the news.
NBC, owned by GE is in the tank for Hussein as are all the other major networks. They didnt run the ACORN stories, they didnt run the Van Jones stories. They are protecting their little fascist.

[Loyal Buckeye]

Klein is deeply disappointed that Fox is interfering w/ the socialists’ agenda.

[cripplecreek]

And Olberman calling conservatives “mashed up bags of meat” is just tough love, right?

[sirchtruth]

These people are nothing but losers. To try and make this argument is such a farce. We all know the other networks are in the bag for Obama, and we also know Fox only seems right leaning because they report for the most part, fairly. Liberal journalist can’t stand this fact so they show their asses by seething. As far as I’m concerned Klien can go pound sand while I laugh at him for his complete biased idiocy!

[csense]

Obama’s obsession with Fox News just might cause some interesting dynamics to appear on the international scale and within the ranks of “journalism.”

if we still had the Alien and Sedition acts....zer0bama would qualify for both

[SmokingJoe]

Klein? Joel Klein?
Who is he again?
He sounds like Hitler's Reichsführer-SS (Reich SS Leader) Heinrich Himmler to me, only 10 times as evil that's all. The Kenyan Narcissist in Chief has read well from the Hitler play book, and set his impotent, increasingly irrelevant attack dogs lose.

Very simply, socialism cannot survive an educated and informed public. It is, therefore essential to the left that they shut down and obscure the message of their opponents. They were successful during the last election. What will happen now is still up in the air.

[ntmxx]

How is it that America suffers such narcissistic fools who can not stop whining when they don’t get their way? For I think America is too nice to these people (now how’s that for bad English). I can only guess the fish is rotting from the head down.

Hey, Klein!

The White House can’t stand Fox News’ criticism, so you just run out and write anything to defend this administration.

Do you call THAT news?!

[Just mythoughts]

Wonder will Joey write an anonymous book on the BamaKennedy wrecking crew?

[onedoug]

Prove it!

[liberateUS]

"Let me be precise here: Fox News peddles a fair amount of hateful crap. Some of it borders on sedition. Much of it is flat out untrue."

Explain to me, Joe, how exposing Obama's thugs, hinchmen and fellow Marxists using their own words, documented in video clips and their own writing, is either hateful or untrue?????

[Obadiah]

Seriously, it won’t be long before Obama and the left start using the force of government to start silencing critics, and the MSM will fully support it.

Look, a national emergency for the FLU?? Let’s all get conditioned to have the government step in and takeover whatever next, such as FOX.

[ALPAPilot]

Klien must be the one Time’s keeping to turn out the lights.

[tgusa]

TIME? ‘Nuff said, nobody reads Time anymore.

[crescen7]

Klein's article is clearly intended to be critical of the President's war on Fox.

His "I hate Fox" preamble to the article is almost obligatory to establish his credentials as a leftist, writing to a leftist audience. Even the phrase that the AT article describes as so vitriolic places the responsibility on the Whitehouse: then perhaps the Administration should be a bit more diligent about whom it hires and whom it funds.

The article is intended to criticize the whitehouse not fox. There's no need to waste all the outrage when they're taking the right side. Here's a link to the entire article if anyone wants to read it.

stories bloated far beyond their actual importance

Really? That's an interesting standard to be raised by anyone in the MSM. Let's remember it for the next time some conservative finds himself in an all-out media firestorm because of some minor stumble, out-of-context quote, or remote association.

The MSM will pivot on a dime to hype Democrat attack lines of attack, no matter how trivial. And ACORN? One grows weary of saying it, but Joe Klein really should pause to consider how the story would be played if ACORN were a right wing outfit with a long history of vote fraud, street level thuggery, and close associations with a Republican president.

Some of it borders on sedition. Much of it is flat out untrue."

Hey Klein how about listing the FLAT OUT UNTRUE examples
