Obama On White House War With Fox News: I'm Not Losing Sleep Over It (VIDEO)
5|
The White House’s war with Fox News, which Jason Linkins has helpfully mapped out here and here, took a new, (and perhaps final?), turn Wednesday night. During an exclusive NBC interview, Obama declared he was not “losing a lot of sleep” over it.
The president is asked whether it’s appropriate for him to be “working the umps”, to say “what is or is not a news organization.” Obama’s response:
“I think what our advisers have simply said is that we are going to take the media as it comes, and if media is operating, basically as a talk radio format, then, that’s one thing, and if it is operating as a news outlet, then that’s another, but it’s not something I’m losing a lot of sleep over.”

Fox should have the right to broadcast whatever it wants, take whatever political positions and voice whatever opinions of the President that they want. That's freedom of speech.
The President on the other hand has no right to defend himself, he just needs to shut up and take it.
