Note that Quitter's fb page links to these horrible, horrible anti-semitic slurs: "Israel Firster" and "neocon!" SERIOUSLY!

(28,347 posts)on a daily basis. They fabricate things to make the other side look bad. I wonder if this is pre-emptive. That maybe they fear what is happening to Murdoch's media empire in Great Britain will happen here at Fox. So they are pre-emptively striking against one their greatest critics so later on they can say the left does "it" too.
No one believes their BS except those with the lowest analytical intelligence.

(2,895 posts)This is a smear campaign designed to divert attention (and undermine the credibility of the messenger) from the revelations contained in Media Matters SOON to be released (2/21/12) book-- The Fox Effect: How Roger Ailes Turned a Network into a Propaganda Machine.
http://action.mediamatters.org/fox_effect
This is not your standard media criticism book -- its the definitive answer to every cousin, brother-in-law or neighbor who ever told you that Fox was their go-to place for news. From tracing the career of Fox News founder Roger Ailes as he learned to manipulate racial politics while working on the presidential campaigns of Richard Nixon and George H.W. Bush, to visiting a cruise ship in the middle of the Mediterranean where a senior Fox News executive admitted to telling Fox News viewers that Barack Obama was a socialist even though he did not believe the charge to be true, The Fox Effect dismantles once and for all the notion that theres any genuine meaning behind the networks fair & balanced slogan
Using leaked internal emails and Roger Ailes own writings, including a never-before-seen private letter, there has never been a more compelling summation of Foxs dangerous and destructive role in our democracy. The Fox Effect offers new insights into Fox News and powerfully describes the harmful consequences of this political operation masquerading as a news network. You wont be able to put it down.
