MRC President Brent Bozell sat down in the Fox News DC bureau on June 17 to record his reaction to ABC News's planned special at the White House on health care.
During the 1 p.m. EDT hour, correspondent Mike Emanuel aired one small portion of his comments [audio available here]:
Just try to imagine a world wherein ABC would give George W. Bush a two-hour opportunity to have a quote-unquote "discussion with the American people" on the war on terror. They didn't even cover some of his press conferences.
Emanuel will file a full story on the controversy over ABC News's special this evening during the 6 p.m. EDT broadcast of "Special Report with Bret Baier." Mr. Bozell's comments should be included in the story. Check your local cable listings for the channel.

June 17, 2009 - 17:44 ET by snaggletoothieWe have seen coverage like this in the last 50 years. From behind the Iron Curtain, from behind the Bamboo curtain, from Cuba, from the Sandinistas, from Sadam Hussein. Obama is just being more open about the true nature of his political leanings as he gets more and more support from the MSM.
The Big Question: Whose Idea WAS this?
June 17, 2009 - 20:38 ET by motherbeltNot only would ABC not give President Bush that opportunity, the entire media establishment would be outraged if he even asked for it!
Their indignation would be palpable!
Which brings me to the big question: Whose idea WAS this??
Did the President invite ABC to do this? Or did they bring the idea to the President?
