They've been trying to play both sides of the street for a while now.

I believe doj is looking into the funding of the protesters.

Not terribly different from Pence cancelling an appearance in Montana when the host was found out to also support some sort of conspiracy.

FOX has been on the slippery slope for some time now, slowly loosing their footing and drifting to the lower left. Many of the commentaters and newscasters are clearly anti-2A, others are withholding facts or presenting false information. Case in point, FOX continually showed the middle school photo of Michael Brown as if it was a current photo of the thug when reporting on events in Furgeson Mo. Same for Trayvon Martin and the recent thug shot by police, Jacob Blake.

A real news program wouldn't censor. They should present a balanced point of view which means their next guest could disagree with Gingrich. Or better yet, actually do some old fashioned investigative journalism and attempt to prove or disprove his claim.

Especially considering that Gingrich isn't known for crazy conspiracy theories. He's politically controversial but otherwise respected. If he says something unexpected like this, it's newsworthy.

Keep in mind, Newt is currently living in Italy or some such place. Looked to me like more of a communication problem than editorial censor. Newt's larger problem is Callista. to whom he has lost all ability to reason. Common problem among men.

Wouldn't lay too much blame for this on Fox editorial decision. Part of the fair and balanced schtick.

BTW, as to Soros, probably the closest mankind has come to a real life Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

Not defending Fox News on this one, but I believe Harris was allowing newt and that blonde bimbo hash it out. Harris Faulkner (Fox News) sort of stayed out of it. Kind of surprised newt didn't fire away. That's my take from the video clip.

You must have never watched Chris Wallace on Sunday morning. He has both sides of the aisle in his interviews almost always. In fact, he's usually tougher on conservatives than on liberals in his interviews. His visiting panel of four is usually made up of 2 conservatives and 2 liberals.

FOX is far more balanced than CNN, NBC, ABC etc. These others only have one point of view.

I was thinking more like Adolph Hitler since he's a real Jew-hater.

There were craiglist adds looking for protesters and stating pay way $15/hr. Might have been fake adds but they were there.

Fox is owned by Disney. How right wing are they? Fox is only there so it looks like the right has a voice.

Avoiding a lawsuit for defamation.

Look how many millions that kid won so far, and now Dershowitz is sueing them (cnn) for 300,000,000$.

Fox News Corp is not the same as Fox Entertainment.
