Bonnie and Clyde = Fox News
“It didn’t exactly represent a profile in courage for the Vice President to wander over there to the F-word network for a sit-down with Brit Hume. I mean, that’s a little like Bonnie interviewing Clyde, ain’t it?…I mean, running over there to the Fox network to, I mean, that’s- talk about seeking a safe haven. He’s not going to get any high hard ones from anybody at the F-word network. I think we know that.”

Oil companies are pirates
“Arlen Specter says Congress should consider taxing the windfall profits being reaped by the oil companies, which I think is a no-brainer. These guys aren’t entrepreneurs- they are pirates.”

Gumbel gripes yet again
“Finally tonight, a few words about World Cup soccer. Please spare me the stifled yawns…Yes, I know that in soccer they score about as often as Ann Coulter makes sense…But if you haven’t watched any of the World Cup matches from Germany you should try it. You won’t be disappointed.”

Dan Rather’s ‘obvious’ liberal bias
“My problem with Dan was always that you knew where he stood politically. And the fact that he stood on my side didn’t have anything to do with it. I thought he was a bad representative of the liberal side because he was so obvious with his opinions. There were just little words he used when he was on the air that made it apparent to everyone that he was a liberal Democrat. And Cronkite, for instance, was just, had just the same liberal Democratic opinions as Dan had, but you would never know it. No one knew it during all the time Cronkite was on the air.”

Rather Biased
“[I am] biased- I have a very strong bias toward independent journalism…Some of what you describe as ‘baggage’ comes from people who have the following view: Their view is, ‘You report the news the way I want it reported or I’m going to make you pay a price and hang a sign around your neck saying you’re a bomb-toting Bolshevik.”
- Dan Rather , Washington Post’s Lisa de Moraes’ July 12 column
Bill Clinton “sandbagged” by Fox News
“Our compliments to President Clinton for having today staved off a reprehensible sandbagging by Chris Wallace of what is jokingly referred to as Fox [pause] News.”

Newsweek is (not) neutral
“Al Gore, who is now in contention as a possible presidential candidate and who is leading a campaign to recognize the potential danger of global warming. Hooray that he is back.”
- Eleanor Clift , December 24, 2006
Is Fox’s 24 “naked brainwashing”?
“Is 24 propaganda? Is it fearmongering? Or is it a program-length commercial for one political party?…if…networks should be boycotted for nudity or for immorality, shouldn’t those same groups be saying 24 should be taken off of TV because it’s naked brainwashing?”
- Keith Olbermann , January 16, 2007.
