What I find funny is, despite everyone criticizing FOX News, FNC continually has the largest number of viewers - I mean its not even close they are #1.

Personally I watch FOX News, but normally in the mornings or late afternoons. I don't really care for the evening shows with Hannity or O'Reilly. But it is concerning that the White House is saying these things about a news network. I hope we don't see something similar to the Alien & Sedition Acts.  :-\

Actually since all this has happened Fox News ratings have seen an increase. Keep on griping Obama.

Generally the media is very left leaning.  Fox News is the only place where you can get some Conservative opinion.  I agree that most if not all of them are over the top in their views sometimes.  However, it's nice to have a counter to the constantly left leaning media and viewpoints.  I do believe that this keeps some of these politicians in check too.
