WHICH NEWS OUTLET DO YOU TRUST?

Reported in NewsBusters on January 19,
"The day before the fateful election in MA on Tuesday, during a Monday video interview with the New York Times’ The Caucus blog, the new White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer, joined his predecessor Anita Dunn in declaring that Fox News Channel is not a news organization: “I have the same view of Fox that Anita had, which is that Fox is not a traditional news organization.”

"Responding to a question by Times reporter Jeff Zeleny about Dunn’s feud with Fox, Pfeiffer explained: “They [FNC] have a point of view. That point of view pervades the entire network both the opinion shows, like Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly, but also through the newscasts during the day.” He went on to add: “We don’t feel an obligation to treat them like we would treat a CNN or an ABC or an NBC or a traditional news organization. But there are times when it would make sense to communicate with them and appear on the network.”

The next night, Drudge Report published these cable news ratings for election night:

The following day Air America declared bankruptcy, stating "Meanwhile, Fox News's rise into the cable news stratosphere continues unabated. According to Neilsen, Fox News drew an astonishing 6.2 million total viewers during primetime Tuesday night, compared to only 1.5 million for CNN and 1.1 million for MSNBC.

The White House shuns Fox News hoping to turn us away from Fox, but apparently most of the viewing public thinks Fox News is the ONLY CREDIBLE NEWS SOURCE!

ARE YOU READY TO TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY?

Are you happy with our government officials? Obama? Reid? Pelosi? Napolitano? Holder? Schumer? Franken, Frank, Rangel, Boxer, Conyers, Geitner?

Are you satisfied with the Hope and Change we’ve seen since the Obama Chicago administration entered the White House?

Do you still trust President Obama to keep his promises?

Do you believe there is anything transparent about this administration?

Do you know what happened to Pelosi’s promise of the “most ethical Congress in history”?

Are you in favor of the CIA being investigated, Navy Seals being court-martialed, KSM tried in civilian court in NYC, and Abdulmutallab lawyered up with rights of American citizens?

Is it OK with you that Obama has given Interpol, an international criminal police organization, full immunity from US law, with unsupervised freedom to investigate Americans on our own soil without recourse or the supervision of our own government?

Do you believe the Obama administration understands that we are at war with radicals who seek to destroy us and our way of life?

Do you have faith in Obama to take EVERY measure to protect us? Including harsh interrogation if a terrorist is captured in the act or planning attack against us? Or be swayed by his base on the Left such as Moveon, the ACLU, ACORN and SEIU who seem to favor the rights of terrorists over the safety of American citizens.

Do you approve of taxpayer funding for ACORN?

Are you at ease with the government takeover of our health care system, involving one-sixth of our economy? Do you want government bureaucrats making life and death decisions about your health?

Are you glad this administration focused their efforts on health care, out-of-control spending and outrageous pork projects, rather than jobs, the economy and reducing our deficit?

Are you in favor of redistribution of your wealth, or whatever is left of it?

Are you comfortable with the ever-growing, staggering debt being left to our children and grandchildren?

Can we count on the mainstream media to investigate voter fraud, bribery, kickbacks and blatant corruption and expose it wherever they find it?

Do you admire an administration that vilifies, maligns and tries to silence or destroy its critics?

If your answer to these questions is NO, view America Rising An Open Letter to Democrat Politicians and get ready to take back our country in November 2010!
