Not enough is being made of Fox News' cutting away from the event on Friday

Yeah... John Stewart joked about it.

MSNBC commented on it... that night.



And on Sunday, Arianna Huffington asked Roger Ailes about it and his answer was "because we're the most trusted name in news."

Arianna didn't follow up that obvious evasion.



Here's what I think Obama should do at his next press conference:

Call on the Fox News guy.... and before he begins his answer, say,

"Before I answer, can I get an assurance that your network won't cut away before I'm done?"


Embarrass the fuckers. Their clueless audience, because they never read or see any other news coverage, doesn't even realize the Fox News cutaway occurred.

Keep it out there... make it viral what Fox did.


If we can't get a Fairness Doctrine, we have to keep pushing this stuff onto the consciences of the clueless general public.
