Greta Slams CNN, MSNBC, Matthews, Olbermann and Netroots

July 18th, 2008 8:33 PM

Greta Van Susteren is quickly becoming one of Fox News's most ardent defenders against attacks from the ultra-left.

Writing about Netroots Nation -- the gathering in Austin, Texas, of the most liberal people in America -- Greta bashed her former network CNN as well as MSNBC, Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, and all those in attendance.

Fasten those seatbelts tightly, for Greta, in a blog posting Friday morning, wasn't taking prisoners (emphasis added, h/t TVNewser, photo courtesy FNC):

The organizers of Netroots Nation - a gathering of liberal bloggers - say that Fox reporters can’t go and cover their convention unless the reporters identify themselves as “opinon media.” MS/NBC and CNN do not have to do this at this liberal bloggers convention. [...]

I know someone at CNN - and to protect that person’s job won’t identify - who said that when he/she files a story with an editor that has criticism of Senator Obama which he/she believes is factual and fair, the story criticism comes back watered down…this does not happen to the person’s filed story when the criticism is of Senator Clinton or Senator McCain. [...]

….and while I am on the subject, Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann? Netroot Nations think they have not marketed their opinions? they are not “opinion media?” Give me a break!

You gotta love her!
