"Fox is "not a news organization." Obama's Axelrod Declares

Obama senior adviser David Axelrod went further by calling on media outlets to join the administration in declaring that Fox is "not a news organization." "Other news organizations like yours ought not to treat them that way," Axelrod counseled ABC's...
 
"White House out to destroy the "only" honest news brokers in the US."   You can't trust anyone else. Gabrielle.Cusumano

...Urges rest of press to side with administration
The White House is calling on other news organizations to isolate and alienate Fox News as it sends out top advisers to rail against the cable channel as a Republican Party mouthpiece. Top political strategists question the decision by the Obama administration to escalate its offensive against Fox News. And as of Monday, the four other major television networks had not given any indication that they intend to sever their ties with Fox News.

White House Escalates War on Fox News

Senior Obama administration officials took to the airwaves Sunday to accuse Fox News of pushing a particular point of view and not being a real news network.  Excerpted from: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/10/18/white-house-escalates-war-fox-news-1925819282/

The White House escalated its offensive against Fox News on Sunday by urging other news organizations to stop "following Fox" and instead join the administration's attempt to marginalize the channel.

White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel told CNN that President Obama does not want "the CNNs and the others in the world [to] basically be led in following Fox."

Obama senior adviser David Axelrod went further by calling on media outlets to join the administration in declaring that Fox is "not a news organization."

"Other news organizations like yours ought not to treat them that way," Axelrod counseled ABC's George Stephanopoulos. "We're not going to treat them that way."

By urging other news outlets to side with the administration, Obama aides officials dramatically upped the ante in the war of words that began earlier this month, when White House communications director Anita Dunn branded Fox "opinion journalism masquerading as news."

On Sunday, Fox's Chris Wallace retorted: "We wanted to ask Dunn about her criticism, but, as they've done every week since August, the White House refused to make any administration officials available to 'FOX News Sunday' to talk about this or anything else."

The White House stopped providing guests to 'Fox News Sunday' after Wallace fact-checked controversial assertions made by Tammy Duckworth, assistant secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs, in August. Dunn said fact-checking an administration official was "something I've never seen a Sunday show do."

"She criticized 'FOX News Sunday' last week for fact-checking -- fact-checking -- an administration official," Wallace said Sunday. "They didn't say that our fact-checking was wrong. They just said that we had dared to fact-check."

"Let's fact-check Anita Dunn, because last Sunday she said that Fox ignores Republican scandals, and she specifically mentioned the scandal involving Nevada senator John Ensign," Wallace added. "A number of Fox News shows have run stories about Senator Ensign. Anita Dunn's facts were just plain wrong."

Fox News senior vice president Michael Clemente said: "Surprisingly, the White House continues to declare war on a news organization instead of focusing on the critical issues that Americans are concerned about like jobs, health care and two wars. The door remains open and we welcome a discussion about the facts behind the issues."

Observers on both sides of the political aisle questioned the White House's decision to continue waging war   More at: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/10/18/white-house-escalates-war-fox-news-1925819282/

Fox News Lays Out Facts After White House Escalates War on Network

October 12, 2009 at 3:10 pm - Fox News
Dateline: Washington DC   From Breitbart at: http://www.breitbart.tv/

Fox News: In recent weeks, the White House has begun using its government blog to directly attack what it called "Fox lies." David Gergen, who has worked for President Bill Clinton and three Republican presidents, questioned the propriety of the White House declaring war on a news organization. "It's a very risky strategy. It's not one that I would advocate," Gergen said on CNN. "If you're going to get very personal against the media, you're going to find that the animosities are just going to deepen. And you're going to find that you sort of almost draw viewers and readers to the people you're attacking. You build them up in some ways, you give them stature."   418 COMMENTS

"Cambridge Police Officer To Obama: Butt Out of My Arrest" Fox News

["...Gates shouted that he would not give any information and called the sergeant a racist.  According to the (police) report, Gates then yelled, "This is what happens to black men in America." When Crowley tried to calm him down, Gates shouted, "You don't know who you're messing with."

Cambridge Police Officer To Obama: Butt Out of My Arrest

The police officer who arrested a Harvard professor and friend of President Obama for disorderly conduct said Thursday he wants Obama to butt out. 

FOXNews.com http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/07/23/police-officer-obama-butt-arrest/

Thursday, July 23, 2009
 

The police officer who arrested a Harvard professor for disorderly conduct said Thursday he wants President Obama, who is the educator's friend, to butt out of the incident. 

Cambridge, Mass., Sgt. James Crowley arrested Henry Louis Gates Jr. in his home last week after he responded to a report of two black men attempting to break in to Gates' home. 

It turned out that Gates, head of Harvard's W.E.B. Du Bois Institute for African and African American Research, had broken into his own home after being unable to find his keys upon his return from a trip to China.

Asked about the incident, Obama, who is friends with the professor and documentary filmmaker, told reporters at a Wednesday night press conference that he didn't know all the facts. But he said, "the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home."

Crowley told WEEI sports radio network that it was "disappointing that (Obama) waded into what should be a local issue that plays out here."

Crowley told the radio station that he supports the president "to a point, I guess." 

A police report of the incident written by Officer Carlos Figueroa, who responded to the call with Crowley, says Crowley was already in the house when he walked in. The report says Crowley had asked Gates for some identification and Gates shouted that he would not give any information and called the sergeant a racist. 

According to the report, Gates then yelled, "This is what happens to black men in America." When Crowley tried to calm him down, Gates shouted, "You don't know who you're messing with."

The report continues that the shouting went on after Gates and the officers walked out onto the front porch. When Gates allegedly wouldn't cooperate or calm down, Crowley arrested him.

Click here to read a copy of the police report (pdf).

Crowley told the radio station that he asked Gates to step outside because he didn't know who Gates was, and he was alone and didn't know if his safety was compromised.

"I had no other motive than to ensure my safety, or he could've been the homeowner who was unaware that there were people in his house unauthorized. I just didn't know," Crowley said.

Cop who arrested black scholar is profiling expert
Associated Press via Yahoo News | July 23, 2009

Posted on Thursday, July 23, 2009

The white police sergeant criticized by President Barack Obama for arresting black scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. in his Massachusetts home is a police academy expert on racial profiling.

Cambridge Sgt. James Crowley has taught a class on racial profiling for five years at the Lowell Police Academy after being hand-picked for the job by former police Commissioner Ronny Watson, who is black, said Academy Director Thomas Fleming.

"I have nothing but the highest respect for him as a police officer. He is very professional and he is a good role model for the young recruits in the police academy," Fleming told The Associated Press on Thursday.

The course, called "Racial Profiling," teaches about different cultures that officers could encounter in their community "and how you don't want to single people out because of their ethnic background or the culture they come from," Fleming said.  Excerpted.

Fox News Investigates Possible "Patient Dumping" Scheme Involving First Lady Michelle Obama

["...helped the hospital by routing poor patients away from a superior facility to a lower quality facility."]
 
 

Here is video of a Fox News investigation into what is called by some, a "patient dumping" scheme, headed up by First Lady Michelle Obama when she worked at the University of Chicago Medical Center. The plan was lauded as helping the poor to get appropriate care. But the bottom line is that it helped the hospital by routing poor patients away from a superior facility to a lower quality facility. In turn, it made room for insured patients to use the University Hospital facility.  More at:

Lots of First Photos from Tea Parties Across the Nation at FreeRepublic.Com

Thousands of protesters, some dressed like Revolutionary War soldiers and most waving signs with anti-tax slogans, gathered around the nation Wednesday for a series of rallies modeled after the original Boston Tea Party. They chose the income tax filing deadline to express their displeasure with government spending since President Barack Obama took office. The protests were held everywhere from Kentucky, which just passed tax increases on cigarettes and alcohol, to South Carolina, where the governor has repeatedly criticized the $787 billion economic stimulus package Congress passed earlier this year. "Frankly, I'm mad as hell," said Des Moines,...  Excerpt from Yahoo.Newss

White House Confuses Hillary Clinton With Sex Worker

"...the WH distributed an email to the press announcing a conference call, but included the number 1-900 SEXSTAT,  a phone sex line rather than the conference call number.
 

White House Confuses Hillary Clinton With Sex Worker

That’s Hillary. Mrs. Clinton if you’re nasty.

Yesterday, in what is the latest in a long, hard series of bungles by the White House, reporters who called for an “on-the-record briefing call with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton” were offered the opportunity to provide a credit card if they felt like “getting nasty.”

According to Fox News, the White House distributed an email to the press announcing a conference call, but included the number for a phone sex line rather than the conference call number. Asked for comment White House Press Secretary Bill Burton said the mistake was “one of the stupider things FOX News has covered lately.” I couldn’t agree more Bill, it is one of the stupid things Obama’s administration has done lately and that the press has subsequently covered or, as in this case, not covered.

This may sound cliché at this point, but fantasize with me for moment. Imagine that this conference call had been scheduled for Condi Rice. Are you there with me, baby? You’re calling for Condi and you get Candi? The press would have gone NUTS. Bush would have been bound, gagged, and whipped for it over the course of days. It would have been a press orgy and, what’s more, the one-time thing would have come back to haunt the Bush team for years after. Every time they sent out a press release about Condi … oh, they’d stick with their own phone numbers, sure. But everyone would remember the other number. From that one time. It would be awkward.

But when this happens on Obama’s watch, only Fox covers it and, when they do, the official response from the White House essentially amounts to “**** you, sweetie.”
 
You know, someone earlier today pointed out that competence matters, and so it does. But The One has been anything but competent. His administration is fumbling around like it’s prom night and the zipper is stuck. They are new to everything, and they just keep awkwardly getting it wrong. Gift gaffes, tax cheats, you name it. Friendly countries are looking at us with wry, often disapproving smirks that say “first time?” And unfriendly countries are licking their lips and making sure the windowless white van has a full tank of gas.  Excerpted (More at the link below)

New American Tea Party.Com "Now Up and Running!!!!" Tea Party Cities Updated

New American Tea Party.Com at:   http://newamericanteaparty.com/    The Don’t Tread On Us Coalition   "I’m getting a lot of questions about where you can attend a protest. The best part is, you don’t need me to go right on ahead and do it. Just go to Facebook (if you don’t have an account, go ahead and do it — it’s easy!), then create an event — the best format is [City Name] Tea Party. That way, it’ll be easy to find. People will find it on their own, and you can have your friends put the link on their wall, or as their status, or you can email it around, just like I do in the list on the right side of this webpage."   http://newamericanteaparty.com/

Here’s an example of a comment that I thought really impacted what I mentioned in the Fox interview today:

Dan Scheiern: We are a retired couple who saved all of our lives to assure we could take care of ourselves in our later years. We are anything but rich. Now what we had is at 50% and going down. I guess we may as well let the goverment take care of us like everyone else!!!!!!! We are so angry we can’t stand to watch Obama on TV. Hopefully your organization will come to Michigan. We ill be there when it comes. We are about 1 hour from Grand Rapids. Thanks to everyone who is working on for the tea party.

Actually, Dan, as far as I’m aware, there is a group starting up in Michigan! I’m awaiting details on it, but post in the comments if you have the website.

I’ll be going on Fox News this morning at 9:15 to discuss the Washington Tea Party effort. If you’re watching the segment, you should take the time to click here and make sure to get on our list. If you’re looking for an updated list of Tea Party activity around the country, just look at the right side of this page — with the exception of Fayetteville, these should all take you to Facebook event pages dedicated to a particular city. My favorite part? These are being run by people who have never done a protest before.

    Exclusive: TVNewser has learned veteran Fox News Channel anchor E.D. Hill will not be renewed when her current contract expires. Hill, who has been with Fox News for more than 10 years, will continue with the network for the next few months until her current deal expires.

    SVP of Programming Bill Shine tells TVNewser that he "chose not to renew E.D.'s latest contract" but noted that "Hill has been a valued contributor to the success of FNC over the years, and we wish her all the best."

    Hill has been without a regular Fox News program since June 16, when America's Pulse was replaced by two hours of Live Desk. Ten days earlier Hill used the term terrorist fist jab when promoting an upcoming body language segment that was going to look into the primary night fist bump shared by Barack and Michelle Obama.

    For most of her nearly 11 years at FNC Hill anchored Fox & Friends. In 2006 she moved to a late morning program then to the afternoons where, in the months leading up to the election, she'd been filling in on America's Election HQ.

    NYT: Obama Says FOX News Cost Him in Polls

    NYT: Obama Laments Media Image, Says FOX News Cost Him in Polls

    New York Times article looks at Obama's attempts to court working-class voters

    Wednesday, October 15, 2008

    Barack Obama riffs on his media image in an interview for the New York Times Magazine, which quotes him as suggesting FOX News has cost him a few points in the polls.

    The interview with reporter Matt Bai, to be published Sunday, features the Democratic presidential candidate feeling lamenting a "media narrative" that has pigeon-holed him as a liberal stereotype.

    "I am convinced that if there were no Fox News, I might be two or three points higher in the polls," Obama says in the article. "If I were watching Fox News, I wouldn't vote for me, right? Because the way I'm portrayed 24/7 is as a freak!"

    He continues that he is being typecast as "the latte-sipping, New York Times-reading, Volvo-driving, no-gun-owning, effet, politically correct, arrogant liberal. Who wants somebody like that?"

    Obama's reference to his poll numbers comes at a time when he has opened up a commanding lead over his rival, John McCain, in national polls, as well as in several battleground states. A recent New York Times poll puts Obama ahead by 14 percentage points.

    In the New York Times Magazine article, Obama tries to explain a comment he made during his primary race against Hillary Clinton, during which he was quoted as saying to an audience in San Francisco that some working class voters "cling to guns or religion" in response to economic woes...

    About Fox News  and  about Michelle Obama's telephone call to African International Press about "Enough is Enough"!  (See article below)

    Shocking development: Mrs Obama decides enough is enough: “My husband was born in Hawaii and adopted by his step father, does that make him unpatriotic; she asks”, on a direct telephone to API.

    Posted by africanpress on October 15, 2008

    Accusing API of colluding with American internet bloggers in an effort to bring down her husband, Mrs Obama said she decided to call API because of what she termed, API’s help to spread rumours created by American bloggers and other racist media outlets in their efforts to damage a black man’s name, saying she hopes African Media was mature enough to be in the front to give unwavering support to her husband, a man Africans should identify themselves with. 

    When API told her that our online news media was only relaying what the American Bloggers and other media outlets had discovered through their investigations, Mrs Obama was angered and she came out loud with the following: “African press International is supposed to support Africans and African-American view,” and she went to state that, “it is strange that API has chosen to support the racists against my husband. There is no shame in being adopted by a step father. All dirt has been thrown onto my husband’s face and yet he loves this country. My husband and I know that there is no law that will stop him from becoming the president, just because some American white racists are bringing up the issue of my husband’s adoption by His step father. The important thing here is where my husband’s heart is at the moment. I can tell the American people that My husband loves this country and his adoption never changed his love for this country. He was born in Hawaii, yes, and that gives him all the right to be an American citizen even though he was adopted by a foreigner; says Michelle Obama on telefon to API.”

    This is a very interesting turn of events. The American man Dr Corsi was recently reported to have been arrested in Kenya because there was fear that he might reveal information on Obama when he wanted to hold a press conference in Nairobi.

    The question now is why he was arrested and who ordered his arrest. Was Obama’s hand in this in any way? We will never know the truth but what is clear is that Dr Corsi was seen as a threat while in Kenya.

    When API asked Mrs Obama to comment on why Dr Corsi was arrested by the Kenyan government and whether she thought Kenya’s Prime Minister Mr Raila Odinga was involved in Dr Corsi’s arrest, she got irritated and and simply told API not to dig that which will support evil people who are out to stop her husband from getting the presidency.

    When asked who she was referring to as the evil people, she stated that she was not going to elaborate much on that but that many conservative white people and even some African Americans were against her husband, but that this group of blacks were simply doing so because of envy.

    On Farakhan and his ministry, Mrs Obama told API that it was unfortunate that Mr Farakhan came out the way he did supporting her husband openly before the elections was over. That was not wholehearted support but one that was calculated to convince the American people that my husband will support the growth of muslim faith if he became the president, adding “even if my husband was able to prove that he is not a Muslim, he will not be believed by those who have come out strongly to destroy his chances of being the next President. Do real people expect someone to deny a religion when 80 percent of his relatives are Muslims?; Mrs Obama asked.

    Mrs Obama asked API to write a good story about her husband and that will earn API an invitation to the innoguration ceremony when, as she put it , her husband will be installed as the next President of the United States of America next year.

    VIDEO "Indoctrination" Students chant praise for Obama in Missouri School.

    "wearing T-shirts and camouflage pants, march in formation and shout out how Obama has sparked the middle school students’ aspirations...."

    Link to video: video of his public school students

    Video of students praising Obama gets teacher suspended

    By JOE ROBERTSON   The Kansas City Star  Excerpted from: http://primebuzz.kcstar.com/?q=node/14852

    A teacher at a Kansas City charter school was suspended Monday after video of his public school students chanting in praise of Barack Obama became a national sensation on YouTube.

    In the video, boys from the Urban Community Leadership Academy, wearing T-shirts and camouflage pants, march in formation and shout out how Obama has sparked the middle school students’ aspirations to be architects, lawyers and entrepreneurs.

    The video was the subject of the most read and most e-mailed story on Fox News’ Election Headquarters Web page Monday.The school’s director, Joyce McGautha, said she had been advised by legal counsel to make no more comments about the video while the school investigates.

    The video — created in May while Obama and Hillary Clinton were competing for the Democratic nomination, but apparently not posted until recently — brought a wave of complaints on blogs of a public school being much too partisan.

    The Urban Community Leadership Academy, 1524 Paseo, is a project-based learning school that serves about 300 students in the fifth through ninth grades, mostly high-risk students, McGautha said. Nine out of 10 of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

    Earlier, she told Fox News that she did not condone the video and did not want it disseminated on the Internet. She acknowledged that public school teachers cannot support particular candidates in the classroom.

    The teacher, whose identity was not revealed, will get a hearing before the charter school’s board, she told Fox News.While McGautha could not comment any more on the video, she encouraged anyone who doubts the integrity of the school to visit.
