Lieberman: Fox Is My "Favorite"

[kpete]

Independent Sen. Joe Lieberman isn't hiding his love for Rupert Murdoch's media empire.

In a Monday interview on Fox Business Network's Imus in the Morning, the senator from Connecticut declared that the Fox Business Network, Fox News and anything Murdoch owned were his "favorite."

LIEBERMAN: Incidentally, I heard last night, I was watching CNN and Joe Jones was on and he was doing the 10 o’clock news show and he said that CNN had been offered these documents by Wikileaks or a third party, but had turned it down because they refused to sign a pledge granting the source anonymity, which the Times did. And I give CNN and whoever else turned it down credit for doing that. The New York Times’ hands are dirty in this and they should have said ‘no.’

IMUS: I hate CNN and I wish you hadn’t brought that up.

LIEBERMAN: I’m sorry about that! It just happened. But of course, really, Fox Business is my favorite and Fox generally, anything Rupert Murdoch owns.

1. I wish he would switch parties.

We've given up way too much to him.

[pacalo]

2. Perhaps it's because Fixed News' viewers are his base?

3. He loves the attention. He lives for it.

A serious, perhaps fatal case of Senator's Disease.

Multi-millionaire? Check.

Thinks very highly of himself? Check, with extra Joementum.

Sellout to the Republicans? Check. (See: Joe's speech at the Republican National Convention)

The US Senate is slowly killing the entire civilized world.

Lieberman is just one of the worst examples.

to Rupert for a job after he looses his next election.

[yurbud]

7. why can't he get ass cancer?

[Octafish]

8. Says a lot.

Says a lot about what's wrong with our mass media, our politics, and our values.

9. Fox News isn't a news organization, it's a virus.

And like all viruses, it's slowly destroying everything in it's path.
