For seven years Fox News has pushed back against the daily scrutiny and criticism leveled at it by Media Matters, the liberal watchdog group. But after David Brock, the group’s founder, said in March that his group’s new strategy amounted to a “war on Fox,” Fox ratcheted up its response. In the past ten days, the news channel has run more than 30 segments calling for the nonprofit group to be stripped of its tax-exempt status.

I find it ironic that some Freepers deride Fox News as 'drifting left' while a George Soros puppet Media Matters views Fox News as the voice of the Republican party and far too conservative so they are attempting to shut it down (hotly denied, of course). This is what leftists do. They have no real argument so they attempt to silence all opposition. I think Fox News will survive.

There is no bigger hate, than the hatred that George Soros spews. Not surprising from someone who seems to be fond of his resemblence to Nazis.

...[Fox]engaged in an unprecedented campaign in support of the Republican Party” during the 2010 election cycle...
The irony is that CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS and about every magazine, newspaper and non-profit support the Democrats and the statists and have for cycle after cycle. Talk about unfair and unbalanced.
