Nevada Fox News Debate is Officially Dead

Well that Faux News Democratic "debate" is apparently officially dead and that's just the way it ought to be. Fox News is a Rightwing propaganda device. There's nothing Democratic about it and no Democrat should agree to appear on it. I'm not sure how much they pay Hannity's dog Alan Colmes but it must be a NICE wage. DKos fills in the blanks:

Fox News debate is officially dead

So it's official, though I'm still waiting for an official statement from the Nevada Democratic Party and maybe even Harry Reid.
The Big Winner: the Progressive movement, which came together at all levels -- netroots, grassroots, and even some institutional players.
The other Big Winner: John Edwards, whose early leadership dropping out of the debate spurred intense media coverage (hence pressure) and fueled its demise.

Taking on Fox | Petition Nevada Democrats

Sign the petition. The Democratic Presidential debate in Nevada shouldn't be hosted by the Rightwing attack dogs of Faux..er Fox News.















Is this really who you want hosting a Democratic Presidential debate?

From Moveon.org

"Fox is a mouthpiece for the Republican Party, not a legitimate news channel. The Democratic Party of Nevada should drop Fox as its partner for the presidential primary debate."

The Democratic Party of Nevada just announced plans to team up with Fox News for a presidential primary debate. But Fox isn't a legitimate news channel. It's a right-wing mouthpiece like Rush Limbaugh and the Drudge Report—repeating false Republican talking points to smear Democrats. Sign this petition to ask the Democratic Party of Nevada to drop Fox from the debate.
