a propaganda campaign against the Obama administration -- a campaign without precedent in our modern political history? Obviously, this guy wasn't around for the eight years of George W. Bush...
Oh, wait! He was LEADING the daily smear campaign and bashfest. I guess it's just different when the other side fights back.

“using the network to conduct a propaganda campaign against the Obama administration — a campaign without precedent in our modern political history?”
Only unprecedented because it is against a Leftist administration! LOL!

The American people and most of our great modern presidents have been demanding major reforms to the health-care system since the administration of Teddy Roosevelt. The elections of 1948, 1960, 1964, 2000 and 2008 confirm the point, with majorities voting for candidates supporting such change. Yet congressional Republicans have managed effective campaigns against health-care changes favored variously by Presidents Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Clinton.Great editing there. And do you really suppose the left would have had such a hard time cramming Nationalized medicine down the American people's throats if the people had ever wanted it?

Howell Raines? Sheesh.
Ah, yes. As we saw in the NYTimes this past weekend, the new meme is: Fox News killed Obamacare. Whaaa! Whaaa!

I think Howell has a point here. In fact, Fox should have been kicked off the air when its most prominent journalist used fraudulent documents in an infamous attempt to sway an election against a sitting president he had tried to take down for years.

Why should he care whether they're honest or not - doesn't this “noble” end justify any means necessary?

“...Ailes has overturned standards of fairness and objectivity that have guided American print and broadcast journalists since World War II.”
Right. Remember the fairness and objectivity bursting from the likes of CBS, the NY Times and Washington Post, NBC/MSNBC, Newsweek and Time in their coverage of:
Katrina, the Tet Offensive, Ronald Reagan, the Surge, SDI, Vietnam veterans, the Clinton Impeachment, global warming, OJ, Valerie Plame, Chappaquiddick, ad infinitum? When I hear the names Howell Raines and Jayson Blair mentioned, I instantly think, “Yeah, ...fairness and objectivity.”
To: kristinn
Howell, ask Governor Palin and her family about the press’ standards of fairness and objectivity. Go ahead. I dare you.

One question has tugged at my professional conscience throughout the year-long congressional debate over health-care reform, and it has nothing to do with the public option, portability or medical malpractice. It is this: Why haven't America's old-school news organizations blown the whistle on Roger Ailes, chief of Fox News, for using the network to conduct a propaganda campaign against the Obama administration -- a campaign without precedent in our modern political history?Imagine the SHEER force of will it took to write this without your head exploding.
The Washington Pravda dares to accuse ANYone of .... PROPAGANDA?????
Pity poor Mr. Raines, to have to go through life without the use of a brain.

Raines is the role model for my goal to run alcohol, drug and HIV/Dementia tests on liberal pseudo oped writers to see what influences their phoney opeds.
Raines is the white version of Jason Blair.
