This is Fox News' Your World, host Neil Cavuto not telling the truth: "At Fox, we do not pick and choose these rallies and protests We were there for the Million Man March, even though as I pointed out, it turned out to be well shy of a million men. We were there for the Iraq war protests and the protests against the Iraq war protests. So, you see, we really don't decide what populist causes matter, just that when a whole lot of people gather in a whole lot of towns and cities across America, it is indeed worth checking out, not just shutting down."
Here are a couple of protests that are not covered as equally as the April 16th Tea Parties on Fox. And if I wanted to document all of the fair and balanced treatment of protest this post could be very long. Here is just a couple.
Number one Fox news did not go on the air till after the Million Man March.
Fred Barnes talkin about a anti war rally: You know, I was struck by how uninformed and morally empty these demonstrations were.
Morton Kondracke: And it's curious that they would be supporting a fascist like Saddam Hussein. The only reason that they could be doing that is because they don't like the United States and they don't like war and they don't like a war perpetrated by the United States of America.
Sean Hannity interviewing a protester: Steven, by the way, these are Marxist groups. They do organize this thing with very anti-American ideas. I don't believe every anti-war protester is anti-American. I'm not suggesting that.
Sean Hannity commenting on a enviornmen protest: All right, take a look at the protesters carrying forth the legacy of Gandhi and Martin Luther King -- shivering in the snow as they protest the Earth's rising temperature as a foot of snow falls. Now, maybe it's just a coincidence that nearly every global warming protest occurs on the exact same day that we have a major snowstorm, or maybe the big guy up there is trying to send a message to these people. We report; we'll let you decide.
