Fox News is the voice of the Republican Party.

It's refreshing to see the White House actually speak up against the one sided views of the Fox News channel. I don't know what a difference it will make but hopefully it will shine some light on the obvious truth which is they are in fact not a news organization but more like "a wing of the Republican Party" as described by White House Officials.

in reference to:

"Senior Obama administration officials took to the airwaves Sunday to accuse Fox News of pushing a particular point of view,
one week after the administration fired its initial salvo to try to isolate the news network by accusing it of being a GOP
mouthpiece."A lot of their news programming, it's really not news. It's pushing a point of view," senior adviser David
Axelrod said on ABC's "This Week." "The way we -- the president looks at it and we look at it, is, it is not a
news organization so much as it has a perspective," White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel added on CNN's "State of the Union." The
open assault on Fox News began last weekend when White House Communications Director Anita Dunn accused the network of being
a "wing of the Republican Party.""What I think is fair to say about Fox -- and certainly it's the way we view it --
is that it really is more a wing of the Republican Party," Dunn said on CNN. "They take their talking points, put them on
the air; take their opposition research, put them on the air. And that's fine. But let's not pretend they're a news network
the way CNN is.""
