Fox denies Obama prime time slot celebrating his first 100 days in favour of Tim Roth's 'Lie to Me'

At least Fox is showing lies with some class.

[gidget7]

As well they should. Zero has gotten 28 hours of prime time coverage in his first 100 days. Bush got 8. In fact Zero got more hours on prime time than Cinton and Bush combined!

Overkill is putting it mildly.

I’m going to tune into fictional lies on FOX ...

Fox denies Obama prime time slot celebrating his first 100 days in favour of Tim Roth's 'Lie to Me'

Great for Fox! This is nothing less than a very lightly veiled political self promotion. I'd rather see Roth's lies than hear more lies from the Usurper in Chief, 0bammy!

[ex91B10]

Lie to Me gets eighteen million viewers.

FUBO

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

So true

[Ev Reeman]

This is nothing unusual. Fox also denied airtime to President Bush and even on a more important occasion, soon after 9/11! Obummer’s ego is in overdrive. He is very much like becoming the national leader in George Orwell’s 1984 and that should be a scary scenario for even his most ardent supporters (if you read the book you know what I mean).

The right-wing Fox network

Silly Brits. I don't know much about British television stations, but I don't try to write articles about them either.

One can make a credible case that the FoxNews network is "right-wing", but the Fox network is an entertainment channel without any discernable political agenda.

Unless you consider such fare as The Simpsons, American Idol, Dollhouse, Family Guy, etc. to be "right-wing."

[Blue Turtle]

Was it news when ABC denied Bush?

[moose2004]

Right on the mark, and they will have huge ratings.

[Drill Thrawl]

Exactly. Especially when you think of how little TV time W actually requested as opposed to this poser.

[Salamander]

“ABC, CBS and NBC”

Who are they?
TV stations or something?

LOL

The right-wing Fox network

Don't they know the difference between Fox and Fox News?

[Vaduz]

This will be the third prime-time BS conference in Mr Obama’s presidency.

[girlscout]

Too bad the other networks won't follow suit.

[big black dog]

Unless you consider such fare as The Simpsons

I used to love the Simpsons but stopped watching them years ago when a blatant left wing bias was creeping into the themes. In one stretch, they had like 3 anti-Iraq war episodes in a row.

[MindBender26]

So we have two choices that night, “Lie To Me” or “Lie To Us.”

[peeps36]

Fox is definitely right of the far left networks that kiss liberal ass. CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, ABC, and MSNBC are all propaganda outlets for the liberal establishment.

[pollywog]

Let’s all WATCH FOX during that TIME!! Make it a MOST WATCHED STATION that hour... and be sure and email them and let them know you appreciate them....at least this time!
