   Just so that I can get this straight.   
      
   1. It's OK for any conservative politician/administration to call out the   
   news media.   
      
   2. It's not OK for a liberal/democratic politician or administration to call   
   out the news media.   
      
   I see, once again, IOKIYAR. I get it now. And the thing is, when   
   conservatives criticize, normally it's because the media are putting out   
   negative stories, not un-true stories, but, negative stories. In the case of   
   the Obama administration, it's straight up falsehoods, lies, and   
   misinformation from FoxNews pretty much 24/7 against Obama.   
      
   Sure, why shouldn't they fight back against the lies and misinformation?   
      
   Amazing. I never saw (and if they're out there, I'd love to read them) media   
   outlets, and journalists criticizing say, the Bush administration for them   
   haranguing the media. I'm pretty sure, it never happened. How about someone   
   calling out Palin for criticizing the media? Probably never happened either.   
      
   And, like I said all along, if Obama has been "lying" so much, then the   
   media (FoxNews in this case) should have an easy time doing stories about   
   him, instead of making things up about him
