Fox News: Obama: War on Marriage

Fox News is loudly proclaiming that President Obama has declared War on Traditional Marriage!. really Fox?

--------
Fox News isn't trying to hide its feelings about President Obama's endorsement of marriage equality: It claims he flip-flopped on the issue and declared a "war on marriage."

Rupert Murdoch's news empire has never been a friend to LGBT rights, but it made its position crystal clear after today's news that the president supports same-sex marriage rights. After the news broke, Fox wrote, "Obama Flip Flops, Declares War on Marriage." Fox has since changed its headline, dropping the "Declares War on Marriage."

Have they decided to not even pretend they are fair and balanced any more? The Republican Party Spokesperson couldn't do better.
