Fox News´ Ed Henry battles
accusations of Republican
bias as he covers the
Obama White House

Associated Press, by Staff

Posted By:JoniTx, 12/6/2012 12:18:27 PM

Ed Henry´s assignment covering the White House would be a challenge for any journalist, no matter his employer. Yet Henry works at Fox News Channel, home base for viewers who longed for President Barack Obama´s defeat. More than anyone, he understands how the natural adversarial role of reporting on the highest level of government has become complicated in recent years by the rise in partisan media and online critics who parse every word reporters and anchors say. "It definitely puts pressure on all of us," Henry said, "and if you step out and ask tough questions, you´re somehow

We need to beat them at their own game. Study Alinsky, and apply them against the dem-media.

Re #1, you betcha.

He is the ONLY one who asks tough questions. And sticks with them after an unsatisfactory/lame response is issued by the administration representative.

A definite thorn in their side.

"It definitely puts pressure on all of us," Ed Henry said of the contentious media environment, "and if you step out and ask tough questions, you´re somehow seen as a partisan now — even if it´s a substantive question and even if it´s a fair question."

...only if you buy into Ed. NO ONE can take your power away unless YOU LET THEM.

I am sure they have plenty of examples of Ed Henry´s Republican Bias from his eight years at Roll Call and the decade or so at CNN.

Else this is yet another idiotic ad Rupertum argument. Name-calling without the wit of ten-year-olds.

We need more Ed Henrys

Yup, bias to the legacy media means he doesn´t bow down and kiss the feet of Obama like they do

Only the stupid Republicans believe in a two party system.

The Left wants power.

Power now.

Power forever.

Power without limit.

Power without consequence or accountability.

Power without end,

Amen.

Those who truly want all sides to be heard are being suckered by the criminals on the left.

Rules for thee.

None for me.

This would be funny if it had no real world impact. The AP - of all groups - writing this article is especially laughable. If he has to do battle I hope he´s a willing warrior or he ought to be replaced.

The Carters, Clintons and 0bama´s of the statist dem´s party are fostering, by their own examples, sociatal disruption, a rude & crude culture of verbal & acts of disrespect toward others, an alarming atmosphere of division and the current rapid economic decay, which altogether has historically been unknown in America the Beautiful´s leadership, culture & ethical principles. They and their statist supporters in the media have each connived to lower the bar of civility in the USA while they act as if no one should notice their irresponsible tactics & radical agenda goals. And most certainly, the dems´ MSM must not ask for ANY explanations!?!! ...Well, these pseudo, ´´emperors´ have no clothes,´´ as everyone can´t help but notice as domestic tranquility in America deteriorates due to the activists´ lefty/lib/statist public policies.

Most of the WH Press ´corpses´ simply collect their paychecks for doing nothing. Any authentic journalist naturally stands out among that dem motley crew. Character counts and is appreciated! -Let´s have more authentic, ´´journalists,´´ like Ed Henry!

I appreciate Ed Henry´s attempts at guardian for the people more than the flip flopper and closet Obama lovers Jake Tapper and Major Garrett.

Senate rejects border fence
Washington Times [DC], by Stephen Dinan    Original Article
Posted By: JoniTx- 6/18/2013 4:18:05 PM     Post Reply
Senators on Tuesday rejected building the 700 miles of double-tier border fencing Congress authorized just seven years ago, with a majority of the Senate saying they didn’t want to delay granting illegal immigrants legal status while the fence was being built. The 54-39 vote to reject the fence shows the core of the immigration deal is holding. The vote broke mostly along party lines, though five Republicans, including Sen. Marco Rubio and the rest of the bill’s authors, voted against the fence, and two Democrats voted for it. Republicans had offered the fence as a way to

[Video] Louisiana State Senator Elbert Guillory (R-Opelousas) explains why he recently switched from the Democrat Party to the Republican Party. He discusses the history of the Republican Party, founded as an Abolitionist Movement in 1854. Guillory talks about how the welfare state is only a mechanism for politicians to control the black community. Hello, my name is Elbert Lee Guillory, and I’m the senator for the twenty-fourth district right here in beautiful Louisiana. Recently I made what many are referring to as a ‘bold decision’ to switch my party affiliation to the Republican Party.

Tough global rules to stop mega-rich firms and individuals from dodging tax were unveiled at the G8 summit today. David Cameron demanded the world’s most powerful countries act to stop countries shifting profits to low-cost tax havens instead of paying they dues where there are earned. The Lough Erne Declaration - signed by the UK, US, Germany, France, Italy, Canada, Japan and Russia - vows to ´fight the scourge of tax evasion´ by ensuring automatic exchange of tax information and changing the rules to stop multinational companies shifting profits across borders to avoid paying their fair share.

CFPB Working to Limit Transparency

A controversial federal agency subject to little congressional oversight has advised its employees to include minimal details about agency events on work calendars that are subject to Freedom of Information Act requests. In a flier circulated to employees and obtained by the government watchdog group Cause of Action, the bureau’s FOIA office instructs employees to “keep your calendar entries brief and general.” The guidance has some observers concerned that the agency is instructing its employees to be more opaque in its daily operations. “Transparency is at the core of our agenda, and it is a key part

On ‘Morning Joe’ this morning, the slightly thinner Gov. Chris Christie R-N.J. dodged 2016 presidential speculation by announcing that he would not wear a Speedo swimsuit on the Fourth of July. “I can announce I’m not wearing the Speedo on the Fourth of July, that’s something I’m happy to announce” Christie joked after MSNBC’s Willie Geist pressed the governor for his political aspirations. Christie has reportedly lost 40 pounds after a successful lap-band surgery earlier this year. Later in the show, Christie explained that during a visit Jersey Shore on Monday, he was approached by several young women

On Wednesday, at two rallies bracketing the Capitol, Tea Party and conservative activists will again take center-stage on two issues dominating the national political dialogue. Reps. Steve King, Michele Bachmann and other members of the Tea Party Caucus will host a nearly day-long dialogue and discussion on immigration reform. On the other side of the Capitol, Tea Party grass roots organizations will hold a rally to "Audit the IRS," in response to the agency´s efforts to intimidate conservative organizations. The immigration event hosted by Rep. King begins at 9am on the East side of the Capitol.

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Jeb Bush says he’s not worried that his work toward comprehensive immigration reform and his ties to the GOP establishment will alienate conservatives and negatively impact a potential 2016 presidential campaign, referring to critics as “the chirpers.” “If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record,” the former Florida governor said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody. “And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.” Bush (R) pointed to his conservative

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:

Iran is preparing to send 4,000 troops in to Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of America´s announcement it will be providing ´military aid´ to the country´s Muslim rebels. President Barack Obama made the pledge earlier this week after the U.S. claimed it found ´conclusive evidence´ Assad´s regime has used chemical weapons against the rebel forces--which includes the most extreme Sunni Islamists--and has called for Britain and France to back the move. While Britain hasn´t made a guarantee either way as yet, more than 350 Royal Marines are being sent to Jordan
