Did the White House Snub Fox News?

Boy! It seemed like Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates were everywhere this Sunday, didn't it? The White House sent its two top emissaries to ABC's "This Week," NBC's "Meet the Press" and CBS's "Face the Nation" to spread the administration gospel on Libyan intervention.

Which just left “Fox News Sunday” anchor Chris Wallace crying into his coffee and croissant.

Wallace bemoaned what he saw as a big time snub by the White House. And he even managed to work in a wicked ratings burn against his competitors!

Wallace told viewers:

"Of course wе wanted tο gеt thе White House view οn Libya. However, thеу сhοѕе tο offer Secretary of State Clinton аnԁ Defense Secretary Gates tο ABC, CBS аnԁ NBC, but nοt tο Fox.

"Despite the fact that we routinely have more viewers than two of those Sunday shows, the Obama team felt no need to explain to the millions of you who watch this program and Fox News why they have sent U.S. servicemen and women into combat. We thought you’d like to know."

    It looks like either the White House is afraid of the tough questions or prefers the cotton balls they get on a brain dead show like The View. In any case, the White House seems to think they will win in 2012 by continuing to play to the Koolaid drinkers on the left who march in lock-step with document forgers like Dan Rather instead of trying to win over the middle ground, the moderates who gave the election to the conservatives in 2010. As always, Obama shows us it's still amateur hour at the White House.



    The sad thing for PrezBO is that it's more likely the viewers of Fox that agree with his position on Lybia than the Soros Hate-America crowd on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN or tingly-legs MSNBC.

    Uh, how about our tests scores nation wide going down while federal spending is going up? I really don't know who Pa is, but good for him. It's probably an anomoly.

    Pa is Pennsylvania. and what does federal spending have to do with a mainly state funded program? and where's your data?

    The Feds supplement the state funding with billions of dollars, which have done zero amount of good.
    There is lots of research done on this and if you want more you can do it yourself, but here is one article but I'm sure it won't matter because you won't believe it anyway. I mean, everyone knows the system is tuning out a genius a minute. (Sarc)

    the states pay the fed gov, who return some of the money back to them, and if you look into it, the red states get more back than they pay in, while we dem states fund your idiocy.

    Yes the Feds force the states to pay them monety, which they then send back to the states which mandates on how the money be be utilized.
    I'm sorry, the remainder of what you said is not relevent to our discussion. Geez.

    Looks like the Whitehouse is listening to G. Soros.

    The "spooky-dude" and others have claimed they will attack FOX News with the intention of labeling FOX as the Republican/Conservative Headquarters.

    It is fair to assume FOX News is Conservative in the majority, but this BLATANT attempt to discredit FOX News is unconscionable!

    It appears that the NEW Obama policy to place his Administration on Network news channels is well underway.

    What could they be afraid of?
