Rachel Maddow Blasts Fox News For Skipping President Obama Medal Ceremony In Israel



VIDEO here: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/rachel-maddow-blasts-fox-news-for-skipping-president-obama-medal-ceremony-in-israel/


On Thursday night in the Jerusalem residence of Israeli President Shimon Peres, American President Barack Obama received the Medal of Distinction, the highest honor that Israel’s government can award a civilian (and also a hunk of hardware that looks like it could be murder on the ole sciatica). As Rachel Maddow noted on Thursday night’s The Rachel Maddow Show, however, only some cable news viewers got to see that ceremony live: all of the cable news viewers who weren’t watching Fox News. -snip-

over there and Condi wouldn't help him get back to his plane. Anyway, the King personally picked him up and took him to the airport. I've really hated her ever since.

It's important and about time everyone realized what's really going on. Unfortunately, she's mostly preaching to the choir. Thanks for posting this! I need to send it to my brother. *sigh*

more proof that NPR is the "liberal bureau" of FOX NEWS.
