[kj] OT: Obama and Fox

[Brendan]

Fox was outed for the far-right bunch they are in the 2004 documentary
Outfoxed, worth watching.

Hear from the horses' mouths (ex Fox staff) about how it all comes down
straight from Murdoch...nothing to do with 'journalism'.

in principle you are right, but Fox is owned by Murdoch who has a big
history and rejoices in influencing who wields power.
The journalists may be independent, but they wont get hired at Fox.

Thats not saying I'm on the other side either. Its a simple observation from
a long history of watching Murdoch
