FAUX NEWS VS. THE VILLAGERS

The WH correctly points out that FAUX is a propaganda outlet and David Carr in the NYT gets flustered because he thinks the WH should maintain its decorum and not push back. Carr seems to forget that John Kerry was hurt by the Shifty Vet lies that FAUX pushed because he didn't push back. Jacob Weisberg in NEWSWEEK seems to understand that and makes a good point about his colleagues:

By appearing on Fox, reporters validate its propaganda values and help to undermine the role of legitimate news organizations. Respectable journalists—I'm talking to you, Mara Liasson—should stop appearing on its programs.
