Yeah, imagine that same rally during 2000-2008. Now imagine it was majorly helped if not out-rightly organized by MSNBC or CNN. One would look at those "news networks" and say "Hmm, you know, they really are crossing the line in terms of what is considered news by actually rallying together on an idea that they conceived" (9/12 project). Those same people would have been called domestic terrorists. Although what's funny is these people actually do carry weapons to rallies. Fox's implicit involvement with it showed their true colors. No network that calls itself news should ever, ever engage in the behavior they engage in. To do so is to move away from being a news network and into...well, whatever they turned into. Fair and balanced? Sure, if you're rich, white, religious and (possibly) racist. Then it's completely truth while every single other network is liberal? Please. When 9 out of 10 networks say one thing and 1 says another, it's clearly not liberalism but reality. It's ironic I admit...Fox News watchers think there's some giant liberal media conspiracy yet when you mention 9/11 possibly being a conspiracy, those same people have a shitfit.

Which is what you fail to look at j. Fox News isn't news anymore. Perhaps they once reported the news and perhaps they might mince some up into their programming now, but they have crossed into, what I feel Obama aptly called, "talk radio." They are a propaganda machine and granted, nearly all mainstream media news can be left or right leaning, they are unlike anything we've ever seen in recent years. They deserved to be re-classified as entertainment. Kudos to Obama to actually having the balls to say it.
