Bush or Fox News?The question stems from an incident Friday at the Netroots Nation conference in Austin, Texas, when former Democrat Congressman Harold Ford Jr. was booed for saying that he has great respect for his former colleagues at Fox News.This was so newsworthy that the Huffington Post's Sam Stein actually wrote about it (emphasis added…

Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh spoke with Fox News on Saturday about the passing of his dear friend Tony Snow, as well as the AP's disgraceful coverage my colleague Tom Blumer reported:

Days after former Sen. Phil Gramm told the Washington Times that "We have sort of become a nation of whiners" when it comes to the economy, Ben Stein claimed, "It's the media that is whipping us into this frenzy."Deliciously, this came just minutes after a Democrat strategist actually said, "We are in the toughest economic time we have ever been in this country."
