It's not news to me that Fox News doesn't like Obama, but the video below really shocked me. Media Matters collected 100 days of Fox News reporting on Obama, and it's not exactly what one could call "Fair and Balanced"
The first time I saw Keith Olberman a few years ago, he was raging about something Bush had done (I can't remember what). Olberman was bold and eloquent, and not only did he confirm what I felt about the issue, he gave me a whole bunch of other stuff to be mad about. When I first saw Olberman, I thought he was great. But I quickly realized that he raged about EVERYTHING Bush and the Republicans did - he is the left's equivalent of Rush Limbaugh; loud, obnoxious, and very biased.
Olberman basically spent 8 years trying to convince everyone that Bush was an evil fascist who wanted to destroy American Democracy, and now Fox News is trying convince people the same about Obama. I'm sure people who watch Fox news would say the other networks have a liberal bias, and that just may be true. But I think the clip below is extreme. With some of the stuff they say, it's no wonder you've got crazy nuts out there comparing Obama to Hitler (well no, actually I still don't understand that one).
Anyway, I think I'm sticking to the internets as my primary source of news.

noooo! I couldn't get past the first minute without getting that "my gutts feel like they are being twisted by crazy people living across the pond" feeling.
I thought we were done having to worry about the States, after Obama was elected into office.
These morons turn the clock back 8 years. It's amazing anyone listens to them.
Hey... welcome back!!
