Et Tu, Fox?
March 10, 2010
Nothing is more disappointing than watching a trusted TV news network go south but, sadly, such is the direction FOX News has been heading in the past few months.
Neil Cavuto's sycophantic and truly nauseating interview with slimey Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal (who now owns 7% of FOX's parent company, News Corp.); extremely ignorant comments recently made by certain FOX News hosts/contributors/commentators about Dutch Parliamentarian, Geert Wilders (a vocal and tireless opponent of Europe's trending Islamization); and now News Corp chief Rupert Murdoch's announcement that the Gulf emirate of Abu Dhabi is to become the headquarters of his global media empire in the Middle East (story here), are just some of the recent incidents tainting my undying devotion to the one and only truly intelligent and relatively-reliable TV news network out there today.
So while I will continue to watch FOX (unless and until something better comes along), with a healthy dose of skepticism, I would highly recommend to those of you who are partial to accurate and intelligent reporting/commentary - Never rely on just one trusted source but make sure you have a cadre of them (and be very selective about who/what you include it!)

Notable Quotables
"Mr. Netanyahu is one of the most media-savvy politicians on the planet. On Friday he appeared live via video link on 'Real Time with Bill Maher,' taking the host’s alternately sardonic and serious line of questioning with gazelle-like alacrity."
~ Anthony Grant, jourrnalist who has written for many major newspapers and worked in television at Paris and Tel Aviv, interviewing former PM Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, at the outset of Mr. Netanyahu's new book (more here).
