Default Faux News Channel bans anti-Alito ad in the wake of DJ Cheney-X

Okay all you media watchers out there.

Clearly, CNN's (hereafter known as XNN) X was one of the gravest and most insulting unprovoked attacks on a public leader ever in the history of the United States. Obviously, it was part of the liberal pattern of mind control and subliminal messages to turn the media watching public away from the light and towards the dark side of Communism and Radical Islam, otherwise known as the Democratic Party.

So it was only fair that Fox News respond by banning from its broadcast network ads from liberal groups opposing Sam Alito, right? I mean, if CNN is going to be so brazenly left-wing, what's wrong with Faux News Channel pouring it on for the right?

I think that add was on the daily show. He made fun of it for being stupid as hell.

So was Fox News pro-Kerry when it didn't run the SBVT ad? Or does refusing to run the ad now balance Fox out?

<shrug> "Objective journalism" is a myth

Both CNN and Fox are private companies and are free to run whatever ads/stories they choose.

Yep, and people are free to criticize them for those decisions as well.
