The Obama Administration is playing dirty. Trying to put a price tag on access — either a news organization plays ball and accepts what they dish out without challenge, or the news organization is excluded, punished. Check this out:
Fox News has been aggressively reporting on Benghazi because it is newsworthy when 4 Americans are MURDERED and because it was obvious the Obama Administration was telling “silly stories” that didnt’ make sense and were not supported by the facts. The Administration’s Benghazi story got more curious when the Administration sent out Ambassador Susan Rice to sell the silly stories on 5 news shows. Two months later, the American people still don’t have the straight story. It is our job to get the facts. We are trying.
The Obama Administration has done everything but give us the straight story and they are fighting us on getting the facts.
And why do I say the Obama Administration should grow up? Because the Obama Administration is trying to punish Fox for trying to get the facts from the Administration (do I need to remind anyone that 4 Americans were murdered?) The Administration in what looks like a coordinated effort is denying Fox access to information that they are handing out to other news organizations. Why exclude Fox? That is simple – to punish — to try to teach us a lesson not to pry, not to look further for facts.
Can you believe Greta has the balls to say that?
Fox has done NOTHING but work 24 hours a day to undermine this President since the day of his inauguration, create scandals about his administration from thin air, and attack his policies at every opportunity, and yet SHE doesn't understand why the administration does not treat them like every other news organization?
Because they are NOT like every other news organization! They are the propaganda wing of the Republican party and they do not deserve to be treated as anything but.
In fact personally I think the President should keep them out of ALL press conferences and White House news briefings, then they can just continue to make things up as they have been doing all along anyhow. I fail to see how that would change a damn thing about their "reporting!"
Between 2002 and 2008, 31 Americans were killed in embassy/consulate attacks. IOKIYAR
ReplyDeleteExactly. And not one tiny conspiracy theory advanced from Fox. Nor are they the least bit curious about why Building 7 imploded long after the other two buildings came down. Nor do they care that Bush LOST Florida in 2000 by several thousands votes. Nor do they care that Mitt is a serial liar, that Boehner refuses to work with the administration on anything, and that the GOP has not bothered to create one job in the last decade, except for lawyers. B ut yeah, keep whining Greta. Oh, and have you seen your ratings recently? larry is beating your bony behind. Better have Sarah ramp up the hate, or threaten to run for something.
DeleteAnd the GOP praised GW Bush for all he did - the reason there is no tory from the administration on Benghazi - is because it is not a story. Only the right wing loons think it is something to be discussed. Most of their dumb followers probably think Benghazi is in Texas or maybe Russia.
DeleteI say fuck em', they're not a news agency at all. They're a propaganda tool of the Republicans. Who gives a shit what Greta says.
ReplyDelete5:05 PM Fox will never admit those facts. Any entity
ReplyDeletethat would permit the likes of an uninformed Sarah Palin to tell lies and spew hatred towards our President is unworthy of being called a News Station.
You are absolutely correct -- True story --
Delete@ Anon. 5:14 PM.
They are Totally "unworthy of being called a News Station" for this, as well as several other of their 'stunted', Faux Noise editions, lies, exaggerations, etc !
Greta has no integrity left. She turned into a Palin-asskisser scientologist and lost her brain.
ReplyDeleteIn a famous court battle, didn't Fox argue that their license is for an *entertainment* channel and that was why they were not required to tell the truth? It would be perfectly understandable if the White House denied them press passes as they are clearly only actors playing reporters for an *entertainment* channel. By their own admission, they are not journalists.
ReplyDeletethat is what I thought as well, also the Fairness Act was removed by Reagan. This Act required a radio or TV station to tell the truth and back it up with documentation. Bill Moyer did an excellent program about this, if you look back into his transcripts from his old show, Bill Moyers Journal, it is well worth your time to read through it.
DeleteYeah, since Fox is an entertainment channel, the White House has every right to treat them with the gravity they deserve: just like ET and TMZ.
DeleteCry, Greta, cry.
ReplyDeleteYour tears are delicious.
Chug-a-lug.
Fox is an entertainment company, and Greta vanWhatever is not a serious news person. I give a shit about what she thinks about as much as I'm worried about Sarah Palin's opinion on monetary policy. That ain't much.
ReplyDeleteUmmm...Greta VanManFace REALLY needs to shut her crooked shaped mouth! Anyone else thinks that whole entire diatribe was written by that retarded bald fella who lives in a dark cave on Dead Lake Lucille and smells like she hasn't showered since the election was over?
ReplyDeleteThat part about "grow up" sounds like one of our resident Palin trolls. Think about it...nobody reads Baldy's Fakebook post...that pathetic post by that crazy Allen chick was laughed at from one side of the internet to the other? Who else wants to hear what the bald fella has to say besides her brain dead followers over at the Asylum? Baldy is down to her last bit of change in her pocket...she desperately NEEDS money for BaldyPac and if she can get "Greg"...um...I mean Greta to help get those dollar bills back into her G string...well...a whore has to do what a whore has to do! Right RAM? LMAO!!
"Right RAM? LMAO!" ITA GinaM! BTW RAM is is living proof that a whore can be incredibly fugly and still get paid big bucks!! RAM makes Greta look like a super model! EEEEWWWW!!
DeleteI'd love to see her eat a turkey leg with that wonky mouth.
ReplyDeleteHappy Zthanksgivibg, everyone of the IM community!
They are truly amazing...the QVC of the GOP, selling as much of their lies and bullshit they can. I am so glad the White House excludes them from anything, let them get the facts from CNN, Fox lite. Maybe the bubble will finally spring a leak, it seems the entire system is failing, the faithful are finally seeing how much they are lied to on a daily basis. They got fleeced by Fox, Rush and look at who made millions doing it...sad little sheep.
ReplyDeleteAnother sad story with Hostess, the vulture capitalists taking millions in bonuses while leaving thousands unemployed before Xmas, are we sure Bain doesn't own some of their stock? Sounds exactly like a Robme gift to the peasants.
fox is stagnant in a world morphing to the future, quick look behind you and chuckle at fox, you are going to miss the mania.
ReplyDeleteKids in the near future will ask why traitors like this witch were not prosecuted, back in 2012.
ReplyDeleteThey should be banned. They distort and lie. They NEVER tell the truth and don't care about facts.
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't she just consult withe her resident intelligence expert Palin?
ReplyDelete/snark
Doesn't Faux Noise have a coveted seat in the front row of the press briefing room? What say they get moved to the very back row and have to stay there for the next four years. That will send a message.
ReplyDeleteBTW I think Greta borrowed those balls from Ann Coulter and will have to return them soon.
Ancient proverb. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
DeleteWhy doesn't Faux hire Bristol's LLC to google this shit for them?
DeleteMaybe Piper needs a job too? They're all hard ass workers aren't they?
I really don't care for what Van Sustenance has to say. She sold out. After her CNN, she went to the crazy network. Even Rosie O'Donnell questioned her motives when they bumped into each other. Van Frozen Face had no answer. Her move to Fox was all about money. She a least admitted to getting an "eye lift" in between gigs so she can attend her high school reunion and make all those boys that never asked her out jealous.
ReplyDeleteThat "eye lift" wink wink may have severed a nerve on her face as her upper lip hasn't moved since.
I got news for you (For)Greta.. There's nothing you can do to make anyone jealous. Those boys didn't and still wouldn't get near you with a ten foot pole.
Where were her eyes, below her nose? Yeah, Greta's fairly unbalanced. Who gets surgery to make "boys" she went to high school with jealous?
DeleteTo boost her ratings, this is Greta's set up so she can have the Mangy Dog from Wasilla on her show to bark and growl at the President.
ReplyDeleteThose two are so predictable.
Ha! good one!
Deleteboth of them like junkyard dogs with a bone! And no mention of the MOVIE that started it all...like who made the movie GRETA?
DeleteWaiting for you to investigate that?
You got it exactly right, G. Why the feck should the Admin give Faux material for its attacks? Info Faux thinks is lies anyway. Go get your own info, Greta. Barack doesn't owe you a thing. Jeez, when did you start sounding worse that your bitch Palin? Have they assigned you her beat? Bitch hasn't been on since the elections, if memory serves. Where she made a complete ass of herself as usual. The two of you, you're both huge assholes.
ReplyDeletePrice tag on access? Didn't the Palin Administration try to charge citizen activists and papers for FOIA requests? Didn't they succeed in charging even while defying court ordered dates for release?
ReplyDeleteThe gall. . .
lol good funny comments here.
ReplyDeletegreta is pretty sad; don't know how this woman sleeps at night catering to the dumbfucks. "my audience are fearful idiots" really don't know how anyone can stand to know that. I guess the $$ makes it all worth it.
Poor greta..sarah's favorite panty sniffer..is she suggesting that the w.h. isn't playing fair..pot meet kettle..
ReplyDeleteBut - I thought Fox was an entertainment network ! Isn't that what they said in that case in Kentucky? They should only attend briefings that also invite. Entertainment Tonight.
ReplyDeleteThe President is no longer running for office. He doesn't have to hold on to the small percentage of Fox News viewers who might actually swing his way. So.. tough shit, Fox News. You made this mess yourself.
ReplyDeleteThe administration should consider Fox News on par with other right-wing media sources such as The Blaze, Breitbart, WND, Twitchy, Rush Limbaugh and their ilk. I don't see the admin bending over backwards to address those bastions of journalistic excellence, so why should Fox News be treated any differently? Just because they stick the word "News" at the end of their name, doesn't make them a true News entity.
Baby I was born this way, Lady Gaga! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV1FrqwZyKw
ReplyDeleteWhere was Greta when the American people wanted more than two years of tax statements from someone running for the highest office in the country? When Ann was sent out with her "silly" talking points about "the more we give them, the more ammo they have to come after us. Those people...."?
ReplyDeleteI love the photos you pick for your blog entries. This one reminded me of a turkey that ran into a closed patio door, but the neck still has that long turkey look to it.
Poor Greta, Larry O Donnell mopped the floor in ratings, and you have to make stuff up.

Happy Thanksgiving, Gryphen and all the fine people at Immoral Minority!
We have so much to be grateful for this year!
Rachel has two handy graphs in case crazy drunk Uncle John, the Romney Voter, brings up the Deficit.

I'm delighted that the Administration is not giving them access. FOX is the Republican wing that has provided nothing but lies and bullshit for the past four plus years. It was so neat seeing that their spread of lies didn't work and that President Obama was reelected. Kick in the ass!!!
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin is no longer helping their ratings and Greta is pissed. Too bad lady! Your network deserves to go down along w/Rush Limbaugh's radio show!
If one includes the bush's years it has been 12 years of their dangerous bullshit.
DeleteGreta was not this outraged when Gabby Giffords was shot and others were killed right her in the good ol' US of A. Her best friend was responsible for those killings, not terrorists. I USED to wonder why Greta was with this faux news organization, but she just proved to me that THAT is where she belongs.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Posted on HuffPost.
ReplyDeleteGreta used to be a well-respected journalist - and deservedly so...
ReplyDeleteBut anymore, Greta is nothing more than just another Foxhole.
If Greta wrote this piece,she sounds like she should really be writing for a high school paper. Very child like certinaly not written by someone with news credentials.
ReplyDeleteand we care what this turncoat former liberal has to say why? she's married to a big fat scientology slob who has been disbarred more than once in more than one state. remember the chemical leak in India, john coale was right there trying to reap the rewards of others' misery. greta has had her hand slapped too for her unethical practices regarding the law...greta grew up at the knee of joe mccarthy, her father's employer..it appears she learned well how to cast hate and disparage folks. did you know old joe actually had the audacity to try to accuse Ike of unAmerican activities? yes, greta, you were taught well how to be a hateful bitch and have even located a sister with your same hateful agenda. may you and sarah burn in hell together for your hateful attempt at undermining the president of our country.
ReplyDeleteGreta who????
ReplyDeleteYou don't see TMZ and Harvey Levin whining and pretending to be a news organization. Fox "News" is what it is: The BS Network!
ReplyDeleteOink!
ReplyDeleteThis President has done NOTHING but work 24 hours a day to undermine our Nation since the day of his inauguration. -Waypoint
