Actually, Fox did a show on Fast and Furious yesterday and O’Reilly has been on it for a while. I don’t much care for O’Reilly, but he has ties to CBS and interviewed the woman behind the Fast and Furious story, but yesterday, they had Issa and Michelle Malking talking about the story and pictures of the guns that were found at the home of the drug cartel in Mexico. Fox is doing a good job on this one.
Yes, I know I over-stated the case there, but still, I’d lay odds that if you add up the FOX minutes devoted to Occupy Wall Street over the next week and compare them to the combined total of Solyndra and Fast & Furious minutes (of reporting) the Occupy Wall Street minutes would far outnumber the minutes devoted to the scandals.
If the shoe were on the other foot here, Occupy Wall Street’s protesters would be chanting “Impeach Bush,” and nearly 100% of the MSM coverage would be on the scandals and the protests directed at the scandals. Yet, even on Fox, the coverage today will lean the MSM’s direction.
Of course, the upside is that if Obama can just survive this for a few more months we get to run against him instead of Hillary...so maybe the MSM is doing us a favor in that regard?
