News Hounds

Why Aren't Brent Bozell & the Parents Television Council Screaming About This?

Earlier this year I noticed that Neil Cavuto, the Fox "business news" anchor who presents himself as a straight laced, God-fearing, flag-waving, prudish, right wing conservative, aired more segments featuring nearly-nude women during his 4:00 p.m. ET program than any other anchor on daytime cable news. As a result, I decided to keep track of his sex segments (almost always containing what must be R-rated video) and at the end of June I posted the results I'd compiled over a six month period.

Maybe it's the Low Ratings For FNC In the 25-54 Demo group, maybe it isn't, but after a lull, Cavuto's at it again.

Fox News: The Only Cable News Network That Didn't Cover This Morning's White House Ceremony re Rosa Parks

As a rule, Fox News can't get enough of George Bush. Fox shows live shots of Bush walking across the White House lawn to his helicopter, greeting visitors waiting to tour the White House, walking across the tarmac toward Air Force One, disembarking from Air Force One, waving from car windows, making speeches, and listening to speeches. When Bush is in public, Fox is there. An example of how Fox hypes Bush is available here.

New War - this one on illegal immigration

The Big Story wasted no time hitting the talking points recommended by Republican pollster Whit Ayres on
Fox News Sunday. Today 11/29/05 guest host David Asman went immediately to the photo op and speech Bush made today at the Mexican border. (If you'll recall, that was #4, changing the "sense that the border is out of control".)

Brit Hume insults Juan Williams during panel on Fox News Sunday

Chris Wallace, host of Fox News Sunday, had Mara Liasson, Brit Hume, Bill Kristol, and Juan Williams on a panel 10/30/05 to discuss the charges against I. Lewis Libby. The segment was prefaced by video of Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald stating the case:

"He (Libby) was at the beginning of the chain of the phone calls., the first official to disclose this information outside the government to a reporter, and he lied about it afterwards, under oath and repeatedly."

'Nuff said

Every so often, no matter how hard they try, the truth comes out on Fox.
