This just in from Fox News: "African Immigrant in Washington D.C. confesses to murder of elderly man."
About Me
- Steven Barnes
- For the last thirty years or so I’ve been a lecturer, coach, novelist and television writer. For the last forty years I’ve been involved variously in the martial arts, and for all my life I’ve studied and enjoyed yoga. Not that I worked at it as hard and honestly as I should have—I’d be a combination of BKS Iyengar and Bruce Lee if I had. After publishing about three million words of science fiction (including the New York Times bestsellers The Legacy of Heorot and The Cestus Deception) and having about twenty hours of produced television shows (including The Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Andromeda, and Stargate, as well as four episodes of the immortal Baywatch), I’ve got opinions on the writing life. After earning black belts in Judo and Karate, and practicing the Indonesian art of Pentjak Silat Serak for the last fifteen, well, I have some opinions there, as well. And having struggled to live consciously since childhood...well, those opinions are probably strongest of all.

LOL! From Fox, I wouldn't be surprised. :/

The actual coverage from Fox News reads like this:
"Yes, America has other adversaries who wish us ill. But the reach of freedom and its fighters was shown yesterday to be greater than the capacity of hatred and murderousness to escape it. Justice was done -- heroically -- by Americans exquisitely trained to deliver it..."
Assuming that the Fox News Network, somehow, can't appreciate the importance of OBL being brought to justice by Obama's leadership is a mild form of demonizing your political opponents. It's easy to do, but wrong.
Obama was in political trouble on 4/30/11 for a lot of reasons. Those reasons aren't going to vanish because Osama Bin Laden was brought down. But there's no question that a lot of people who'd had a hard time saying anything good about Obama have something good to say now.
Now, if only Obama can be equally effective about stealth inflation and the 10% unemployment rate, we're all set for 2012!
