FOX is the Ashley Todd Villian: Fire Moody


Josh and others are focussing on the PA McCain campaign and their role pushing the Todd story without evidence. That is disgusting and damning. But the real villiam is far more insidious and evil.

From Huffington article yesterday: "...John Moody, executive vice president at Fox News, commented on his blog there that "this incident could become a watershed event in the 11 days before the election. If Ms. Todd's allegations are proven accurate, some voters may revisit their support for Senator Obama, not because they are racists (with due respect to Rep. John Murtha), but because they suddenly feel they do not know enough about the Democratic nominee."

There is no escaping or evading the irresponsibility and, lets call it what it is, bald racism, that drips from that statement. (And of course it would still be racist and indefensible even if Todd's story were true.) It is an outrage that Moody has not be fired or at least denounced by anyone pretending to be a journalist associated with FOX.  Will Chris Wallace, Mara Liaison or Juan Williams even mention this tomorrow on Fox Sunday. How can they not? Can anyone e-mail any of them to insist they bring it up?
