News Hounds Media Digest # 69
2/5/06 to 2/12/06

1.Janie: Far-right Kansas Attorney General, Phil Kline appeared on Dayside this week, to give his opinion on the current lawsuit that is underway involving his interpretation of a Kansas law, in which he feels all health professionals need to report any child under the age of 16 that is sexually active. He claimed that he would not prosecute these teens, as long as their partner were of a similar age, despite the fact his recent testimony proved otherwise.

2. Marie Therese: Last week Bill O'Reilly lashed out at former President Jimmy Carter for remarks he made during the Coretta Scott King funeral. His guest, Rev. Al Sharpton, defended Carter vigorously, forcefully pushing back against O'Reilly's partisan whining. This made for an exciting, if somewhat loud,exchange. http://tinyurl.com/aech2

3. Melanie: Evangelical Christians are consistently welcomed with open arms on Fox News; their causes celebrated and even promoted. So it was striking when two representatives from an evangelical group promoting action to combat global warming appeared on Your World last Thursday and were given the cold shoulder. Even they weren't able to shake Fox's loyalty to the Bush administration on that topic.

4. Chrish: FOX is interjecting the defense of Bush's warrantless domestic spying into even the most trivial and unrelated segments, as if the outcome of hearings and investigations will be a matter of public opinion rather than law and Constitutionality.

5. Deborah: Did Libby bring Dick Cheney into his testimony because he's shopping for a pardon?

6. Donna: This week the war drums were beating on Fox, including Studio B. John Bolton made the following statement in speaking about Iran, "It's entirely consistent with what the IAEA did on Libya and North Korea, other cases of nuclear weapons programs." John Bolton insinuarted that Iran did, indeed, have nuclear weapons without a shred of evidence.

7. Ellen: Where's the outrage from progressives? In a revolting display of racism and tastelessness, Sean Hannity and guests smeared the NAACP, civil rights leaders and Coretta Scott King's memorial while paying lip service to her memory - all because Hannity, et al. decided the mourners were not polite enough to President Bush. News Hound Ellen urges everyone to complain to FOX News about their self-appointed funeral thought-police.
