FOX IS GOING SQUISHY SOFT Once upon a time this was the network to watch for cutting edge news, stuff that nobody else would report. Once Upon A Time the same could have been said of CNN. No more. FOX even ignores their own breaking stories. Oil for Food? Zero, even the so-called "pit bull" O'Reilley soft balled an interview on the subject last night. Zero on the Turkish Special Forces incursion into Northern Iraq; featured story on MSNBC. Really superficial coverage of the "million man march" to Kabala; focusing on the "mobs" of less than 100 wildly demonstrating anti-American factions and ignoring the fact that 950,000 had nothing to do with that stuff.
For many of us, it's back to the web to get news again. BTW anybody notice that MSNBC has taken a very hard turn to the Right? I think they are going to cut into FOX in a major way. Their coverage of the War was vastly superior in every way and NBC has vast resources that when used as they were in the War have very few TV competitors.
