Fox News Crew Gets Scolded At Democratic Meeting (VIDEO)
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/10/26/fox-news-wisconsin-democrats_n_774164.html

A Fox News camera crew showed up unannounced at a Democratic meeting in Wisconsin Monday, prompting a confrontation that eventually forced the show's producer into a rather startling admission: he understands why Democrats are wary of his network's coverage.

When Steve Brown and his crew were noticed hanging out near the back of a Milwaukee Democrats monthly meeting, party chairman Sachin Chheda called them out and asked them to explain why they were there, considering News Corp's -- the parent company of Fox News -- highly publicized $1 million donation to the Republican Governors Association.

"Do you think it's understandable why Democrats across the country have this reaction when Fox News shows up, that they feel it's not a fair organization, it's a biased organization, and it doesn't give a fair shake to Democrats and Democratic viewpoints," Chheda asked.

"I'm not gonna kick them out. If they wanna stay here and watch us talk about Democratic values and Democratic issues I think the Fox News Channel should be welcome to do that," Chheda said. "If they want to report about what's going on and what's happening in this election I think that what they'll see is that we're fired up, we're ready to go."

they are NOT a news outlet. THey are a wing of the Republican party. An advocacy group. Don't treat them as a news organization. That is not what they are.
