Fox News Talks About The Big Story Of The Day: Fox News

Here’s “Your Moment of Glenn“, as he talks about Anita Dunn and the White House priorities:

And finally, some of what anchor emeritus (who is now a senior political analyst) Brit Hume had to say on Special Report:

Fox News may be the biggest news channel by far but it is not as big as the Presidency. There is an additional problem in fighting with the press – the vast protections afforded by the first amendment make the media largely invulnerable to attacks from politicians. For all these reasons, the kind of salvos recently fired at Fox News by the White House represent, as you heard David Gergen say, a risky strategy. The White House has though chosen its words with some care – note the characterization of Fox not as conservative but as Republican – a lot more Americans identify themselves as conservative than as Republican. What is more, though, if Fox News really were a GOP mouthpiece, the White House would not be attacking it. It would feel no need to.
