It's a foolish strategy set by this administration, and i believe that it is no accident.

MSNBC has the same approach albeit friendly to the pres. Nonetheless MSNBC, not all but several talking heads, seldom practice news reporting.

Obama shows a bit of thin skin on this and I wish he'd avoid this tactic.

And let's not forget all the lefty regulars Fox employs...Geraldo, Juan Williams, Kirsten Powers, Bob Beckel, Alan Colmes etc..
Ok, I agree with the first three.

LOL
Colmes was pretty much hannity's little biatch, and then he was downgraded into another weakened token liberal.
As for Juan, he seems to be alright, although there are times when he makes a fool of himself by defending racists like limbaugh.

the fox news audience is likely to be anti-obama anyway, and the way they report the news doesn't leave much space for disagreement, so these results are not surprising.

what is the point of this poll? is it telling something we don't know?

Trust me on this one as someone who follows elections and election polls far more closely than I should.

Never ever, ever, put much stock in a non-scientific poll.

I watched the 6:00 Fox news show and maybe I'm being bamboozled but i don't really see much of a bias. I still see Fox and MSNBC as much the same being with opposite agendas.

Who cares? I bet if we ask a similar question to the NAACP, we'll get an even more homogeneous but completely different response.

Wow, people who respond to Fox polls strongly disapprove of Obama. People who join the NAACP strongly support Obama. Go figure.

why does fox not credit him for being nonplussed and a bit bewildered at being awarded the prize ahead of any achievement?

What if you just admitted that your poll doesn't say anything we didn't already know? Why are you so eager to change the subject with a dull question (that has an obvious answer)?

One actually. This makes two if you must count it.

I'm beginning to understand why you post this crazy stuff.
