As part of his Fox Attacks series, Robert Greenwald has a new video compiling Fox News’ assault on the progressive blogosphere. The network’s hosts and guests have attacked bloggers as “radical Internet assassins,” “McCarthyism,” and “conspiracy-driven.” Watch it:
Contact Fox News’s advertisers and inform them about the network’s inaccurate reporting.
OMG! I’m an “internet assasin”??? Why didn’t somebody tell me I was living a double life? And I thought I was just a bookkeep…
July 26th, 2007 at 4:22 pmGeez, talk about projection. But….projection is integral to the Republican mind, along with extreme hypocrisy, intellectual dishonesty, contempt for the rule of law, and an unhealthy obsession with everything sexual.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:22 pm“McCarthyism”
Project much?
July 26th, 2007 at 4:23 pmI think most of Fox’s advertisers are very aware of Fox’s inaccurate reporting. I would say some of them are complicit in it.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:23 pmThis only applies to the “progressive” blogoshere? I assume we are to infer that conservative bloggers are true patriots.
Your radical right-wing agenda is showing with your double-standards, Fox.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:23 pmOMG! I’m an “internet assasin�?? Why didn’t somebody tell me I was living a double life? And I thought I was just a bookkeep…

Yeah — bet you didn’t know you were that powerful! Of course, since you didn’t finish your last word, it’s obvious the agents “got” to you. Pity — I always liked your posts!
July 26th, 2007 at 4:25 pmThis is part of the campaign to make sure that the remaining loyal fox viewers firmly believe that all democrats are controlled by a small far left minority.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:26 pmI like that site they set up. I am more than happy to join the fight. I do agree with #4. I think they are very aware of what Fox represents and once the balance of power shifts to the left, those advertisers will abandon Fox in droves.
But, it can’t hurt letting the advertisers know what you think. I put my political voice to my pocketbook. There are quite a few places I won’t shop because they advertise on sites like O’ Reilly or Malkin’s sites.
We all have to remember that Imus wasn’t fired until the advertisers started to jump ship.

July 26th, 2007 at 4:30 pmThis freedom of speech thing has to stop!
July 26th, 2007 at 4:31 pmThere were two clips that made me laugh. The first was them quoting the “liberal” Joe Klein…If he’s a liberal I’m a Martian. The second was Tom Delay saying “the left is never held accountable”. Now that one was a doozy!
July 26th, 2007 at 4:32 pmThe problem with the “blogosphere” (I assume FOX to be referring to libetrolls) is the constant personal attacks they launch and the overextending, pompous sense of entitlement they feel when submitting every posting. These blogcrats are no better than Ward Churchill, the worst professor in America (who was FIRED two days ago, and rightfully so.).

Mmm hmmm… spoken like a TRUE internet assassin. And you thought you had us fooled with that innocent bookkeeper persona? You’re not only an assassin, but a fool!
The real question now is, since FOX News has blown your cover, and the cover of every other internet assassin (uh-oh…I think I might be an internet assassin) will Congress go after ‘em and make ‘em pay an easily payable fine? And will Dubya commute all of our sentences?
July 26th, 2007 at 4:33 pmi think my favourite line has to be:
“the left are never held accountable” (tom delay)
meanwhile, delay, a criminal, prances around texas.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:33 pmMcCarthyism??
July 26th, 2007 at 4:33 pmWhat a bunch of crap. What this administration is up to is as much McCarthyism as you can get. It silences anyone in government agencies. It smears them and threatens their livelyhood.
All that is needed to respond is a listing of Fox sponsors.

July 26th, 2007 at 4:36 pmFox News’ blog is locked down to paying members only. Many other Conservative blogs are also heavily policed and dissenters are kicked out. I guess the Right hates experiencing a true “town square.”
This, of course, is directly in line with Bush’s fake “town hall” meetings consisting only of invited guests.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:36 pmInroads are being made on Faux’ reputation, even with its base. They are pissed as hell that they were not trated like the big boy MSM outfits (”news” outfits would be giving them too much credit) and offered the opportunity to sucker punch the Democratic candidates at a debate. We need to find more ways to expose these propagandists. Their assault on the bloggers is terrific. Did you see the free advertising Kos got on Olberman last night? I hope they make war. It will open the eyes of their sheeple.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:37 pmIt’s almost a good sign that this is all these guys have remaining to go after the Left with.
Their arsenal is empty.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:38 pmWow – Americas last 50 years of history is open to examine to anyone with an Internet

Now perhaps its time to have an anti-FOX solidarity march.
July 26th, 2007 at 4:46 pmWhat bugs me most of all is the “journalists” that work and “report” there.
I understand a corporation wanting to run their agenda to the largest possible audience.
But when these people went to college to become journalists, it must have been from a desire to root out truth. Surely Watergate was a big influence for a lot of them. The big scoop, and all of that.
When did these poor people decide to sell their souls, and why?
July 26th, 2007 at 4:46 pmWhy?
The Fnox Nuts Channel controllers JUST realized that the MSM is using blogs to get a lead on stories they SHOULD be covering.
Now FOX is engaging in damage control – painting the blogs as radical – so they can use their previous attacks against bloggers as proof the msm should be ignoring them.
Sweet…if your a moron.

I know what you mean dude, it can be hard to take sometimes.
Senator Diane Feinstein: “I remember when there was a fairness doctrine, and I think there was much more serious correct reporting to people.”
Now all we have to do is figure out what Feinstein meant by “correct”. Did she mean correct correct or Stalinist correct?

Mr. Churchills dismissal, for one, was in no way related to the issue of ‘freedom of speech.’ It was a serious breach of academic integrity in his research (plagiarism, etc.). The University of Colorado has its integrity to uphold. The ‘freedom of speech’ claim in that case was a lefty talking-point.

July 26th, 2007 at 5:06 pmWhat Fox calls the far left is middle America. Fox is so far right that the middle looks extreme left. On the issues most Americans(according to the polls) are progressive liberals. So this condescending snobbery of Fox TV personalities is based on their ignorance of the American voters. They live in denial of the ‘06 elections that say they are in the minority and basically irrelevant to political discussion.
What gripes my ass though is that FOX ATTACKS just shows Fox attacking without any response or refuting of their propaganda. They put it all into convenient form to hit us with their hate filled message all at once, and then say …do something. Okay I will. I’ll stop watching Fox Attacks who just reiterates their message. I get nothing but stupid form letters back from their sponsors about they don’t really support the shows…they’re just advertising etc.. And it outrages me to have to sit through their vomiting rhetoric. I didn’t watch it to begin with so I really don’t want to watch a summary of it. Intelligent corporations know that most people don’t say anything, they just stop using their products. I don’t even watch their advertising.

Oreilly is nothing more than a shill for neo-liberal Murdoch and his liberal British Monarchy. The neo-cons, if you do your homework CT Scam, are radical nutty professors of Straussian philsophy that infiltrated the conservative movement.
Now ask yourself why lefties don’t care for these neo-liberal lefties? Because the progressives are more right than left. They understand capitalism and are not socialists by any means, in fact they are against Communism and Fascism. They don’t call the Constitution a GD piece of paper but uphold it.

I completely understand, seasoned citizens shouldnt be storming the gates of the White House.
But Ill give you credit for trying to educate the ignorant, considering just how many ignorant liberals there are out there. Good luck, papasan.

If there were “serious concerns” then why did the Swift Boat Vets resort to outright lies. In fact, nearly everything they said in their attack ads was shown to be a lie.

Oreilly and the idiots at FOX only give them excuses to hate and become consumate liars and hypocrites.Your talk about your Frank and Beans commando style is just like that of the conservative hoodlums that roam the neighborhoods, huff spray paint, and deface private property with idiotic MOB slang. Grow up. They are hardly conservative or Christian.

You brought up swift boat, you claim it was all lies, the lies could have been squashed had Presid…er…Senator Kerry simply produced his military records.
One has to wonder why he took all that abuse and put his POTUS aspirations on the line when it could have been silenced forever with a few simple military documents. The Swift Boat affair had a HUGE influence on Kerry’s image…why didnt he fight back with the best weapon as his disposal?

Well, Mr. Kerry’s use of the slogan during his campaign ended up being a projectionist lie. Mr. Bush defeated him, and he is in office for that second term.

This is the same tired bint that Mr P and michael spew. Kerry is not running for president. He attended and is part of the same club as George bush from the Liberal Eastern Ivey League [Harvard]. Kerrys papers can be found on line. The military gave him the medals. Go argue your dust laden dittoheaded points wit them. George signed up for a six year tour with the guard but bailed out after 4 years so he could attend Liberal Harvard B-school.

If you can’t see the blatant hypocrisy of his ‘conservatism, then you will simply continue to refuse too. Not my problem.

The point is they are not educating themselves but, perhaps, watching too much Dumbledore mindlessness and imitating popular media garbage from video games to music videos. Capitalism, and ai say this alot, creates liberalism. You can see it everywhere you look.

Why does Oreilly call bloggers who are American democratic citizens, Stalinists, Mcarthyists, fascists, and Nazis? Obviously hes just throwing out crap and hoping something sticks. The reason he has to throw out so much bias and names is because he is utterly clueless when it comes to internet protocols and the people behind the monitors/screens. This is not a hate site, just one thats tired of dittoheads projecting groupthink opinions onto people they don’t know. If you were to meet me, personall, outside of the internet you would find that I believe in God, will help you fix your car or plane, and can hold conversations on many levels from computers to planes to cars to politics to physics to philosophy. Just because a talking head, left or right utters his opinion about a secular group of educated Americans does not make it so. Please don’t repeat the media rubbish here.
If you took a bit of time and reviewed my moniker, one small word, you would find many things, many little points to follow. Don’t be a follower, become self educated. You will find many hints of what I am if you simply follow small hints I leave. =)

That, sir, is your opinion, not a fact in any sense. Please say I THINK OLBERMANN IS A STALKER. And then provide rational reasoning to back up your unfounded claim, if you can prove that Olbermann has ever stalked someone then perhaps you have a valid point. Oreilly, as court records show, once sexuallu harassed a woman over the phone and talked about falafels (which is a misprnounciation of a bath type sponge], this is why you hear people relate falafel to Oreilly. Pretty funny actually no matter what side of the aisle one leans from. BTW I am not a ‘liberal’ in the pundit sense of the word, and consider myself sovereign.

Mr. Churchills dismissal, for one, was in no way related to the issue of ‘freedom of speech.’ It was a serious breach of academic integrity in his research (plagiarism, etc.). The University of Colorado has its integrity to uphold. The ‘freedom of speech’ claim in that case was a lefty talking-point.
Clearly, you lefties have gone too far.

Sorry so late to respond, but I actually have a life and was busy yesterday evening.
It looks like you got me. Here I assumed you condemned Ward Churchill (the “worst professor in America”) because of his somewhat controversial theories and the fact that he made his students think instead of merely absorb. And that you were comparing “blogcrats” to him for that reason.
Now I find out that the reason you consider Churchill the worst professor in America because of plagiarism and other infractions — NOT because of his opinions and his tendency to express them. Who knew?
So I guess your point is that we “blogcrats” are free to post whatever is on our minds, and as long as we don’t steal anyone else’s words, that’s OK with you? (cut-and-pasters, beware!)
