Where was Fox News during the Anti-War protests?
Giving each individual a chance to speak? This is making me sick, the protests don't bother me but the way Fox News is covering is.

2. My point was
I would've loved Fox News during the anti-war rallies giving protesters a microphone. Instead they made fun of them which is what they are accusing the rest of the media of doing.

5. Calling us fringe nuts. (Much like 'we're' doing to the Teabaggers)

The Ruling Class has us all working off the same left/right divide/conquer script. Fox is just a cog in the wheel.

6. I remember Fox covering an-anti war protest in March or April of 2003
Back when everybody thought the Iraq War would be such a good idea. Yes, Fox covered the protests, but in a sneering, condescending way, and of course back then they just had to constantly remind us all that these protesters only represented an "overwhelming minority" of the American people.

10. Doing a Will Ferrell/Cheri Oteri cheerleader skit for war based on lies.
FAUX "News" pup tents for Cheney/Bush are still erect and standing strong.
