Cute. Most of the reader comments below it don’t seem to catch on to how slanted it was. It looks like something that would appear on Fox.
It was obviously written by someone who dislikes Obama and focuses on the items that make him look bad.
Example: Under “Legislative Record” the only statement made about Obama was “Voted ‘present’ over 100 times as IL state senator”. That a valid negative, but it doesn’t define him or his legislative record, and no mention is made of the votes he did make, either in the state or US Senate.
Or under “Energy”, just mentioning the tire pressure statement (again out of context), as if that were his whole policy, ignoring this comprehensive document.
A “good” comparison? Hardly. For a comparison like this to be meaningful, you need to have supporters for each side filling in their column.

For me it’s a darn good comparison. I didn’t think you would like it much. 😉

And BTW, did you know a lot of Democrats are saying Fox is the most fair network? At least a lot of Hillary supporters are saying that. I doubt many Obama supporters would accept that but I believe it’s pretty true. All the major news outlets except Fox are in the tank for Obama.

I try to watch PBS as much as possible. Partly because of minimal commercials, but also for its fair and in-depth analysis. Much less fluff. Jim Lehrer’s daily news show is excellent.
Have you forgotten the report I linked to on your blog in March, when we were talking about fairness in journalism, or do you just not agree with the results? It found that PBS and CNN were the most neutral, that Fox leaned right, and most other outlets leaned left.

Jim Lehrer is actually a decent newsman.
I haven’t forgotten about your link. Have you checked the left leaning “news” programs since The Messiah has been running? You really need to get a reality check if you think they aren’t way left for Obama. Yes Fox is a bit to the right but at least they have Liberal hosts mixed in with their Conservative hosts. As for news I think Fox is fairer than any of the mainstream networks. And as I pointed out so do a large number of Hillary supporters now that they have seen real bias that hasn’t been for them.
