Obama's Fox News Freeze-Out

It looks like Obama is not talking to Fox News reporters.

This from "The Sleuth":

Sources tell The Sleuth that the Obama camp has "frozen out" Fox News reporters and producers in the wake of the network's major screw-up in running with the erroneous Obama-the-jihadist story reported by Insight magazine.

It doesn't sound like a permanent freeze. Roger Ailes, CEO of Fox News, personally called and talked to Obama about the bogus Madrassah story. Also, professional hack and Fox News vice president John Moody sent out this terse e-mail to staff:

"For the record: seeing an item on a website does not mean it is right. Nor does it mean it is ready for air on FNC. The urgent queue is our way of communicating information that is air-worthy. Please adhere to this."

Still, Steve Doocy, the douchebag on "Fox and Friends" who first reported the bogus smear should publicly apologize to Obama, and John Gibson should just promise to shut up for a couple of years.
