This is Fair and Balanced

Fox News purports itself as being a network that is “fair and balanced.” They spew that load of crap every chance they get and point the finger at the so-called “liberal media” like Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow as being shills for the Obama Administration. Below is a recent quote from Olbermann regarding Obama – tell me you would ever see O’Reilly or Hannity say anything remotely similar as this about the Bush Administration…

“Mr. President, you are wrong. What you describe would be not “spent energy” but catharsis. Not “blame laid,” but responsibility ascribed… Mr. President, you have now been handed the beginning of that future. Use it to protect our children and our distant descendants from anything like this ever happening again — by showing them that those who did this, were neither unfairly scapegoated nor absolved. It is good to say “we won’t do it again.” It is not, however…enough.”

UPS Claims They Did Not Boycott O’Reilly’s Show

Keith Olbermann reported that UPS has backed out as an advertiser of the BGill O’Reilly’s Fox News show, O’Reilly Factor in response to the harassment of Amanda Terkel of ThinkProgress.org. UPS has issued a statement that it has not, but has stated that they do not have any pending advertising plans with O’Reilly’s show.

“We are writing to clarify our statement of last Friday because it appears to have been misinterpreted. UPS has not ‘pulled’ any advertising from Fox News nor has the company taken a position on the ‘ThinkProgress’ campaign. Our intent on Friday simply was to note that UPS does not have any pending advertising plans with the O’Reilly show.”
