Using Fox News

That is, as a number of observers are noting, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and other Democrats are certainly doing so now. Here's one media analysis...

All of this is rather funny. Isn't it? Earlier this year, many Democratic activists and interest groups roared their displeasure when the possibility arose of the Dem presidential candidates debating on FNC. And so the debate didn't happen. And most liberal/left acquaintances of mine hate Fox News Channel with a passion; they consider it little more than an adjunct of the Republican Party.

But lately, Hillary goes on Bill O'Reilly's show, and Obama appears with Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday.

It sure makes it harder, then, for our liberal friends to deride FNC as a somehow illegitimate news network. Which makes us conservatives smile...

Sigh...

From the "Shenanigans" blog on politico.com: "Is "Fox News Sunday" waving a white flag?
Whispers have it that the channel will be devoted to all Democrats this weekend, including House Dem Top Dog Speaker Nancy Pelosi. And Chris Wallace's "Power Player of the Week" for his "Fox News Sunday" show is none other than HRC Campaign Manager Patti Solis Doyle."

Uh--no. Maybe instead it means that the ridiculous notion possessed by some that Fox News will never allow Democrats to appear on their shows, or that FNC is purely a Republican mouthpiece, is just plain wrong. And further maybe it means that the notion that Democrats will never appear on Fox News is wrong too. Maybe the real question here is for Democrats--how come you'll appear on Fox News Sunday, but an FNC-sponsored debate is a no-go???
