Gang, I can’t say it any better than Chris Wallace of Fox News said it to Newsmax.com yesterday. So, accolades to Chris.. and here is the article in toto:

Chris Wallace: Media Bias ‘Astonishing’

“Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace said Friday that since leaving the mainstream networks behind to join Fox he’s noticed an “astonishing” amount of biased reporting on the part of his former colleagues.

“I came from the mainstream media and I didn’t used to feel this way,” Wallace told WRKO Boston radio host Howie Carr.

In radio interviews he does to promote his Sunday broadcast, Wallace said, the questions he gets are almost always slanted against the Bush administration.

“They always ask negative questions about George Bush [like] ‘How much trouble is he in? What’s this mess in Iraq?’” “I mean, it’s quite astonishing to me.”

Wallace said that the success of Fox News is a direct result of bias in the so-called objective press. “Fox News wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for this kind of stuff going on in the mainstream media,” he told Carr.

“That’s why people are fed up with that and want the antidote to it because they get it and they’ve gotten it for years - the so-called bias in the objective press.”

Now I know you looney libs out there are going to say “well, he’s just towing the FNC’s Republican Party line,” but the way he relays questions he gets from the MSM reporters DOES NOT surprise me, because I’ve seen them “in action” (i.e., David Gregory & Terry Moran) attacking Scott McClellan brutally!
