11/18/09: Obama Surrenders to FoxNews
Despite fervent denials by the White House staff, President Obama sat down for a FoxNews interview during his current Asia trip. The interview amounts to a surrender in a war that Obama started preemptively over a month ago.
The Obama administration used Saul Alinsky's tactics to silence its critics. The strategy was a miserable failure.
Let's recap:
- White House communications director Anita Dunn rips FoxNews
- Anita Dunn attacks FoxNews during a CNN interview
- Anita Dunn is outed as a Maoist by TV host Glenn Beck
- Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod appear on competing networks to criticize FoxNews, insisting that it is not a real news network.
- President Obama attacks FoxNews
- FoxNews' ratings soar
- Anita Dunn hints to Bloomberg TV that President Obama was intimately involved in her initial decision to attack FoxNews
- Anita Dunn steps down from her White House post
- President Obama appears on FoxNews for an interview with Major Garrett.
The regimes in Iran and North Korea must be thrilled to know the leader of the free world is such a pushover.
