On Fox News Sunday, Thompson Accuses Fox Of "Constant Mantra" Of Attacks - Politics on The Huffington Post

On Fox News Sunday, Thompson Accuses Fox Of "Constant Mantra" Of Attacks - Politics on The Huffington Post: "In a heated exchange this morning on Fox News Sunday, former Sen. Fred Thompson took host Chris Wallace to task for what he claims is a 'constant mantra' of attacks on Thompson from Fox News. Thompson reacted to two clips from Fox News contributors Charles Krauthammer and Fred Barnes sharply criticizing Thompson's candidacy. 'I don't know if Fox has been going after you,' Wallace said, defending his network's coverage. But Thompson insisted -- 'From day one, they said I got in too late --' only to have Wallace interrupt. 'Well, there are a lot of people besides Fox who said that.'"
Thompson Charges Fox News Is Biased Against His Campaign - Politics on The Huffington Post: "This is important because Fox News has picked their candidate (Rudy), are influential in a certain segment of the populace, and will use their influence to push a candidate rather than impartially report on the various campaigns. Personally, I won't be voting for Fred Thompson, Rudy or an Republican, but it is bad when a media group such as Murdoch's attempts to influence an election and call themselves 'fair and balanced' as if they were a real news outlet. I realize that the Chris Wallace show is not a news show per se, but overall they do seem to have a 'thing' for Rudy."
