Gary Moscowitz in his letter "Liberal media protect Obama," May 13, caught my attention as the writer extolled the virtues of Fox News. I decided to revisit Fox to see whether anything has changed.
The segment I watched featured two pundits, fully involved in describing their "relentless investigation" of the Benghazi incident and that their "relentlessness" far exceeded any other media efforts. This is highly disputable, but totally typical Fox hyperbole in their propaganda campaigns on issues they choose to report on.
Case in point: There was little or no "relentless investigation" on the President George W. Bush/Vice President Dick Cheney vanity war based on lies that killed nearly 5,000 Americans, wounded more than 30,000 and killed thousands of non-combatants.
Fox is an entertainment entity not unlike Looney Tunes, but not anywhere near as amusing and a much larger threat to the integrity of the media as a dependable source of facts and truth.
Can you imagine Fox proclaiming that General Custer finished a respectable second at the Battle of the Little Big Horn? I can.
