Fox News: Where Tough Questions For Donald Rumsfeld Are For Other Networks

I've previously reported on how Fox News has rehabilitated disgraced Donald Rumsfeld into some kind of national security maven - who just so happens to have some criticisms of President Obama's policies at the ready. Now, Media Matters has put together a mashup video comparing tough questions from other networks about Rumsfeld's failed Iraq invasion with Fox's softball questions.

Apparently, on Fox News, tough questions of Republicans are only for that biased "liberal" media. Even for a Secretary of Defense who resigned in disgrace after starting a disastrous war in Iraq based on non-existent weapons of mass destruction (despite telling America "We know where they are.") On Fox News, none of that seems very important in a discussion about a possible strike against Syria that is very much in the shadows of the Iraq war. Except, of course, as it relates to criticizing President Obama.

@john Mc Kee,I too have always considered the over the top B.S from Patel pretty good satire,and it does make me laugh.

John, not really sure if you’re practicing your sarcasm but, in case you think pRick is posting satire, you sadly mistaken. Sadly, SADLY mistaken.

No one—not even Stephen Colbert—has mastered satire to the degree that would be required for pRick to be writing satire.

Wow! Look at Fetchin’ Gretchen in that snugly-fitting white shell top & the tight red mini-skirt. She looks like a sweet young college student. She is absolutely adorable. So fit & fashionable.

Tough questions for Republicans have a liberal bias!
