Political Quote of the Day

From Mike Tobin, Fox News reporter who has the misfortune of being in the middle of the dippy doper drum-bangers in Madison, WI, describing what it's like to report amongst those loons:
“One thing I think should make clear – the people coming after us from every live shot here, these people hate,” Tobin said. “These are people who don’t respect diverse viewpoints. In fact, they’re so afraid I’ll present a diverse viewpoint, that’s why they try to heckle me and shut down every live shot. They’ve made it clear, that what they want to make it harder for me to do my job. They are proud of that when they disrupt a live shot, when they really trample over the First Amendment rights or the First Amendment’s obligations of a reporter. Now, I am not saying that’s all of the people. Those are the people that come here and heckle and try to disrupt things. I look in their eyes – there is hate in their eyes. They don’t want to hear any kind of viewpoint that is different from their own. That’s why they do what they do.”
Tobin was assaulted by one of the union thugs.  When you have Democrats demonizing Fox News it gives their weaker-minded followers the idea that assaulting members of that organization is okay.

Diversity of opinion absolutely scares the left to death and it drives their hatred of Fox News because Fox often presents a different viewpoint than the loons read on the wacky left sites or see in the mainstream media. It scares them because it challenges their assumptions.

"It scares them because it challenges their assumptions."

And because they can't stop it, suppress it, or drown it out.
