How Much Does Fox "News" Hate Obama? Crooks and Liars:

http://crooksandliars.com/2015/11/how-much-does-fox-news-hate-obama

My note to all at DU....
Note: these four paragraphs are proof positive to anyone that Fox News slants the news against President Obama. There are some who think that this isn't true, or that it happens from time to time about unimportant news, but here is proof. This is an important story about jobs creation and Fox News obviously slanted the news against Obama. It is clear and easy to understand for anyone that is even a little fair minded. If we need an easy example to understand, with a comparison (paragraph 3)...this it... play the video if the Fox News Fan needs to see it....Good Luck to All..

Here's what happens when Fox gets forced to report some good news for the Obama administration: Watch Fox News Stumble Through Outstanding October Jobs Report:


Fox & Friends co-hosts Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Steve Doocy stumbled through a segment on the Bureau of Labor Statistics' (BLS) job creation estimate for October 2015, which showed the largest monthly jobs gain of 2015, attempting to minimize the significance of a strong monthly report that beat most analyst expectations.

On November 6, the BLS released its monthly jobs report for October showing that the U.S. added 271,000 jobs last month, easily beating analyst expectations en route to the largest monthly jobs gain of 2015. Within minutes of the release, Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy portrayed the news in an uneventful light while co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck lamented that the economy created "only 271,000 jobs."

Contrary to Fox's clumsy framing, on CNN the jobs report was introduced as "frankly, a 'wow,'" by New Day co-host John Berman, and correspondent Christine Romans described net new job creation for October as "much stronger than expected." Fox & Friends has a history of disparaging positive jobs reports, with Hasselbeck once glossing over strong job creation in February 2015 to focus on a slight increase in the unemployment rate.....CNN Link:

If the liberal media really was liberal the WH Press Club would not have elected a Fox "journalist " to the highest office of the WH press corps and a front row seat to further project their hatred.

was very similar to the negative narrative of Fake Noise. When the Set Changed at the top of the hour,the next on air talent were less negative. Two hours later(11:00 AM PST),the on air talent was whooping it up and all positive. BTW,the market moved meditatively up,do you think their e-mails and tweets finally burned their collective asses. I did sent two e-mails both criticizing their ugly reporting of the printed facts. So damn obvious that so called Liberal Media does not exist.

So much of the media is slanted in the conservative/right wing direction. As you said, "liberal Media does not exist."

script readers,and how they are trained or coached. Usage of Syntax's,Gish Gallop,and their body language,plus all the T&A. One would think you were watching a Fake Noise segment or Entertainment Tonight. And opinionated and the use of Straw Man and False Equivalencies.
