FOX News boss Roger Ailes, under reported pressure from the top of News Corp, has issued an order gagging Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Greta Van Susteren on Barack Obama criticism.
No such edict preventing Carl Cameron from trashing Sarah Palin with anonymous smears, apparently.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich unloaded on the Obamedia during Greta Van Susteren’s On The Record tonight, likening their smear and disinformation campaign against Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin to the way Communist state press treated Poland’s Lech Walesa.
Palin, like Walesa, is seen as a leader coming up from the ranks of the people and taking on the powers that be, a hostile and biased media among them.
…Now, I haven’t seen anyone from the elite media do a live broadcast from the non-existent Katie’s Restaurant to point out that Joe Biden is just out of touch with reality. He’s either dishonest or has a total memory lapse about his hometown. Yet, nobody notices it. Again and again there were 14 factual mistakes by Biden in the vice-presidential debate. Nobody said that disqualified him. This has been a totally one-sided campaign where the news media has been the best ally that Barack Obama has gotten. And we ought to be honest about it. There’s no pretense, not a shred of neutrality on the part of the major networks or The New York Times…
I’ve been thinking about having one of my researchers look at every single elite media interview of Governor Palin to see if any of them asked her how she gave $1300 a person back to Alaskans as a tax break, how she negotiated and got so much money out of Big Oil, how she worked out the deal for the natural gas pipeline, or anything of substance about how she shaped an $11 billion budget involving 29,000 employees of the state government.
I don’t believe by the best of my knowledge that there has been a single question by an elite television journalist about her actual career in Alaska.

I don’t watch Greta Van Susteren much, but boy did she have a great moment the other night in her interview with former President Bill Clinton.
Question: What is the difference between an association with someone like David Duke and an association with someone like Reverend Wright?
Clinton: 10 seconds of silence and unintelligible muttering before saying “We don’t have to go there.”
It doesn’t end there. He tries to skate on it, and she won’t let him.
