“The strategy that we had had toward Fox was basically a strategy of containment,” said Brock, Media Matters’ chairman and founder and a former conservative journalist, adding that the group’s main aim had been to challenge the factual claims of the channel and to attempt to prevent them from reaching the mainstream media.

The new strategy, he said, is a “war on Fox.”...Libs are getting desperate.

Dig deep Freepers; There’s lots of ugliness in Media Matters to be found and put out in public.

This focusing on Fox happened after a large infusion of money into Media Matters by Soros. http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/20/soros-donates-1-million-to-media-matters/

Damn Nazis. They can’t allow the truth to be told by FOX. FOX is screwing up all the work being done by their NAZI propaganda machine.

Too many people realize the only place to get “news” is from Fox News. The Beck, Hannity, O’Reilly, Van Sustern, etc. are outstanding programs. The Liberals can’t continue with the “brain washing” with Fox telling the truth. Go Fox. . .

Sounds like they are WAY too late to the party. The only thing they can hope to do is plant a few moles in FOX, have them do some seriously bad journalistic malpractice and then amplify it.

MM vastly overestimates it’s power to do - anything - vs. Fox.

Media Matters doesn’t matter.

Media Matters only brings out an Eyeroll, a heavy sigh, then a dismissive chuckle..

Media Matters doesn’t!

Sounds like they should change their name to “Fox Matters”, since they only seem to concentrate on that network.

“a ‘war on Fox.’”

Whenever anyone says “war” Gabrielle Giffords cries.

Let them devote their time, money, and energy on monitoring Fox around the clock. They should hire still more people, even. Some of them will have their eyes opened, learn something, and then realize conservatism is not only more valid, but the only sane option for these times. Then they’ll join us here and give us inside information on the leftist loons. What they write and relate will expand the right’s influence and reach, and then Media Matters et al. will have to hire more to monitor us if they want to try and keep up. It’s a positive feedback cycle.

“.Libs are getting desperate. “

More specifically, The Messiah and Georgie Porgie Sorosky are getting desperate.

Media Matters plots “guerrilla warfare and sabotage” against Fox?

Ah, the "New Civility" required after the Tucson shootings.
