Obamaites call on MSM to attack Fox News - Newsweak has done so so far. We're going to see just how state-run the state-run media is. Obama Thinks All News Networks Are Dumb Think about how tragically misguided and dumb this is, though it is only a reflection of the administration's thoughts about the population as a whole. The media networks are simply not smart enough to get it for themselves. They should listen to an administration that allegedly knows better and cut off Fox News. Are they crazy? What country have they been living in, or do they want to create might be the better question. Talking down to the entire media like this is not going to win them any friends. They are laying the ground work for their own utter collapse by taking this approach. Talk about not being ready for prime time. It looks as if they aren't ready for Sunday morning, either. The White House is calling on other news organizations to isolate and alienate Fox News as it sends out top advisers to rail against the cable channel as a Republican Party mouthpiece. Top political strategists question the decision by the Obama administration to escalate its offensive against Fox News. And as of Monday, the four other major television networks had not given any indication that they intend to sever their ties with Fox News. But several top White House officials have taken aim at Fox News since communications director Anita Dunn branded Fox "opinion journalism masquerading as news" in an interview last Sunday. White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel told CNN on Sunday that President Obama does not want "the CNNs and the others in the world [to] basically be led in following Fox." Obama senior adviser David Axelrod went further by calling on media outlets to join the administration in declaring that Fox is "not a news organization." "Other news organizations like yours ought not to treat them that way," Axelrod counseled ABC's George Stephanopoulos. "We're not going to treat them that way." riehlworldview.com What does "not treat them like a news organization" even mean?
