This is what Romney said, at the MSNBC link, above:

He said his campaign had been well-covered by Fox News, but that Fox was watched by "the true believers," and that he knew he would have to reach out to a broader audience in order to win over independents and women voters that will decide the election in November. He painted a picture of a media landscape in which liberal voices won out on television, but conservatives were strongest online.

[KSanders]

We know he is an Albino Obama.

[Doctor 2Brains]

Romney loves himself. Obama hates America. Why can’t people see that the former is WAY better than the latter?

[GeronL]

“We are behind when it comes to commentators on TV. They tend to be liberal,” Romney said

Which are exactly his kind of people.

[Jim Scott]

Romney used poor judgement in calling Fox News viewers 'true believers', inferring that the Fox News audience consists only of hardcore Republicans, a narrative the MSM had tried to sell for years. Not a fatal mistake and not one to get over-excited about...we already know what Romney thinks of conservatives. I just hope Mitt doesn't think he'll ever get a break from the MSM. That would be beyond naive on his part and demonstrate that he really is 'out of touch' - with reality.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

I view this statement by Romney as meaning, it is now time for him to openly move to the left of the political spectrum.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Translation: he will cease even lying about being conservative and run like the ultra-liberal he is.

I WILL NOT vote for him.

At least Obama has the courtesy of not lying to me before he rapes me.

[throwback]

LOL! True believers in what? Fox is the Republican establishment hack channel. The audience there are ONLY the Romney supporters. Anybody that wanted a conservative should have moved on by now. So it is truly funny if he's calling them the believers since they're the sellouts that will vote ABO no matter who the candidate is.

[Christie at the beach]

Romney has shown his arrogance, he thinks he has the ABO voters no matter what, so now to pick up democrats and any liberals along the way. He will need those liberals to get anything done. See his record. People are giving this man blind trust like many did with Obama.

[Leep]

I stopped watching all Fox News several months ago. Mostly because they exposed themselves as the Romney pimps they really are.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Romney crushed consrvative opponents with negative ads.

Now he talks a lot of BS about reaching out to the middle.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

So what? What color socks does he wear? Or did he wear last Friday? Now THAT’s the kind of info I really care about.

[chessplayer]

Insulting people is not a way to stay ahead on Twitter, toots. Neither is diminishing Fox News when almost all of the mainstream media is carrying Obama’s water.

Oh, good grief! How many in here rail against Foxnews as a clone of CNN or MSNBC? A great many. Are they now going to change course and defend Foxnews?

This is the real link they’re twittering about on that Malkin link:

“Fox is watched by the true believers,” Romney told donors, according to the Wall Street Journal. “We need to get the independents and the women.”

Romney singled out CNN’s Wolf Blitzer as a good newsman, and today the campaign circulated a photo of Romney and wife Ann walking in Boston with ABC’s Diane Sawyer, with whom the couple is doing an extensive interview.

A few years ago, Pew Research did a survey of the partisan makeup of television news audiences and found that, while a lot of Republicans do watch Fox, so do a lot of Democrats and independents. “Democrats comprise a larger share of the Fox News audience than Republicans do of CNN’s audience,” Pew reported.

Pew found that 39 percent of regular Fox watchers are Republicans, while 33 percent are Democrats. For CNN, Pew found that 51 percent of viewers are Democrats, while just 18 percent are Republicans. According to Pew, 22 percent of Fox’s audience, and 23 percent of CNN’s, are independents.

Given the differences in audience size — Fox’s audience is far, far larger than CNN’s — Romney would certainly reach more independents, and perhaps even more Democrats, on Fox than he would on CNN. Yes, there are Republican “true believers” watching Fox — a group among whom Romney still needs to shore up his support — but there are a lot more people watching, too.

Fox News may deserve the nickname “Romney News Network” more than CNN ever deserved the moniker “Clinton News Network.”

We are behind when it comes to commentators on TV. They tend to be liberal

That's why they favor you w/softball questions from the media moderators because you are liberal. They take care of their own. They are against conservative Newt.

Save you whining - you will need it when obama is 'ready' for you.

[Texas Eagle]

Romney. What an idiot.
