Fox News Watch: Nevada Democrats Whimp Out to NUTROOTS

Faces of news: Daytime anchor Jane Skinner and Fox News chief Roger Ailes.

The Nevada Democrat Party wimps out to the pressure from the NUTROOTS and Moveon.org.

So, the Democrats like John Edwards and Bill Richardson are going to pick and choose the coverage of their candidates? And object if the sponsors or venue do not meet their ideological litmus tests?

GOP candidates have been dealing with the acknowledged left-wing slant of the major media outlets for years.

The Fox News response:

News organizations will want to think twice before getting involved in the Nevada Democratic Caucus which appears to be controlled by radical fringe out-of-state interest groups, not the Nevada Democratic Party. In the past, Moveon.org has said they â€˜ownâ€™ the Democratic partyâ€”while most Democrats donâ€™t agree with that, itâ€™s clearly the case in Nevada.

The NUTROOTS have won – but the Democrat candidates for President have LOST.

Here…a comment so you don’t feel so lonely…Choosing how and where you are covered isn’t the issue here….Fox News would have quite a bit of say in the style, layout and questioning for this debate. The network has a conervative slant, even conservatives will admit that. They claim the fair part is that the conservative slant offsets the vast MSM’s liberal bias. Going into a debate with a news organization who daily seeks to spin against you is stupid in politics. Fox is free to cover the debate, show clips and have commentary on it, but why let them run the thing when their obvious talking points are constantly spinning against the Dems. Wimping out? hardly. I look forward to a response on this ghost town of a Blog.

Sorry DJ but some of us bloggers have real and meaningful jobs.

And then why would the GOP candidates wish to have a debate sponsored by CBS or NBC news with their left wing (although they are in denial)slant?

The Democrats wimped out to the NUTROOTS and will pay the price, now won’t they?
