Fox News Channel Has Totally Ignored The Christie-Bridge Revelation

[okaawhatever]

The revelation that one of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's top advisors was directly involved with discussions to close lanes on the George Washington Bridge in September has been the top news story for almost every major news outlet Wednesday. Except for one: The Fox News Channel.

According to the story Fox News hasn't mentioned it since 2:17 yesterday.

From the comments here is some coverage of what has been said by rw media sites. Credit to Snippit:

The reporting over there is insane haha...to wit:

"Though he repeatedly has denied involvement, Christie has faced criticism for months over the bizarre incident in September"

"Though Christie denied involvement, Democrats have tried to use the incident to undercut his image as a bipartisan problem-solver -- amid expectations that he may run for president in 2016. "




We must reinstate media laws and overturn Citizens United. America can't continue with half of it's citizens living in total ignorance. If the news won't tell you the truth, what will?

[jsr]

1. They're still fact-checking.

LOL

[underpants]

2. Yeah Luntz is focus grouping in it now

They really don't know what to do with Christie now - he was the next great thing but since he hugged Obama they talking pointed Christie away on an iceberg

[ailsagirl]

9. HAH!!

[Laxman]

3. Is This Worse Than Bengazi?

[kydo]

4. Yes it is worse then Benghazi

but hey after all the facts are in that Fox lady will come on tell us that yes children Christie is indeed white.

[WinkyDink]

7. Is it worse than Katrina? Iran-Contra? Bitburg? The Theft of 2000? You DON'T want to play this game.

[Laxman]

8. Sarcasm-Lighten Up

We are talking about Fox News Here.

[WinkyDink]

23. Ah. :-)

[HangOnKids]

29. Of course that is what you mean

[Laxman]

30. Of Course!

This is DU-Not the comment section of your local newspaper.

[liberal N proud]

5. They are still trying to figure out how to blame it on Obama

Oh and there is no global warming either.


It's FOX!

[Kingofalldems]

6. You mean Doocy didn't make faces about it this morning?

[11 Bravo]

10. They need to save space in case Hillary wears white after Labor Day or some similar outrage!

[Katashi_itto]

11. Unless that bridge was in Benghazi and was a witness, we won't hear anything from Fox

[Nye Bevan]

12. It's the number 2 story on their iPhone app

Haven't been watching TV though

[okaawhatever]

13. U have to love how they say the "emails imply that Christie's office had hand" in closure. No the

emails pretty much spell it out. I wonder if Fox news television works hard on the over 60 crowd (their main demographic) and the online edition is right wing lite for the more savvy reader. Or maybe it's because it's easier to verify information once you're already on the internet.



My prediction for future Fox news story: Show picture of Obama and Christie from post-Sandy days with the anchors claiming "See we told you all of Obama's friends were criminals."

[Nye Bevan]

14. LOL- I wouldn't put it past them (nt)

[CreekDog]

15. past who?

the emails already show that the aides were punishing Ft. Lee for their mayor's non-endorsement of Christie.

not put it past them? there is nothing for you to speculate about "them". they are guilty, end of story, already.

[okaawhatever]

17. I think he/she was referring to my last statement. My prediction for the way Fox will handle this

story in the future. I said they would show one of the pictures from Hurricane Sandy when he was photographed w/ President Obama with the anchors saying "See we told you all of Obama's friends were criminals."

[Nye Bevan]

22. Yes, of course that's what I meant.

That poster's hostile response to me was in reality a spillover from a discussion that he and I had earlier in another thread. Sorry that this was brought into your thread.

[joeybee12]

16. Yahoo is doing its best to hide it also...

Don't want to upset their paid teabagger posters!

[okaawhatever]

18. I think Melissa Mayer is a wanna be Koch sister. nt

[joeybee12]

19. She probably is...

It was nice to see the new Yahoo mail slammed as a tech failure for 2013!

[Kingofalldems]

25. I just wnet to Yahoo, they had zero on it at 10:00 PM.

[kentauros]

20. That's okay.

I totally ignore Fox

[lpbk2713]

21. ... as expected.

More Benghazi, all the time!!11!

[spanone]

24. he's the media darling, i expect them all to eventually cover for him.

[Lint Head]

26. Fox Snooze ignored something despicable a Republican did? You're kidding!

[ailsagirl]

27. So does this spell the end of Christie's hoped-for repuke nomination...

or will it just go away?? Can't help wondering

[lpbk2713]

28. He's too much of an egomaniac to drop out altogether.

He'll be in the the primaries and in the debates but he won't be around long.
