Value Voters Summit Throws Out Fox News

You might think the people attending today’s Value Voters Summit in Washington D.C. would be the sort of folks who make up a large part of Fox News’ viewership: headliners today included Carrie Prejean, Mike Huckabee, and Michele Bachmann, and tonight’s keynote is being given by Fox host Bill O’Reilly. This warm welcome however, apparently does not extend to Fox cameras. Fox News reporter James Rosen was asked to leave the premises this afternoon while broadcasting live from the Summit (his contempt for the attendee “crowding” his space and asking for his removal is hard to miss.)

This avoidance of cameras (Fox, or otherwise) seems to be a theme for the Value Voters people: according to Politico not even O’Reilly’s address will be open to cameras. Video of Rosen’s exchange below. UPDATE: And video of MSNBC’s similar struggles can be found here.
