Fox Nation – FNC to Take Over TV, Internet?

Is Barack Obama’s administration the best thing to happen to Fox News? Perhaps … but let’s wait and see if conservatives turn to the Internet for their news.
Piggybacking on right-leaning Fox News Channel’s soaring success, FNC has launched its brand on the Internet — with the brand-new website, FoxNation.com.
According to the Fox Nation website’s purpose statement, "The Fox Nation is for those committed to the core principles of tolerance, open debate, civil discourse — and fair and balanced coverage of the news. It is for those opposed to intolerance, excessive government control of our lives and attempts to monopolize opinion or suppress freedom of thought, expression and worship."
The website, developed by the makers of the cable station that’s ever skeptical of President Barack Obama, targets conservatives seeking to band together. "We felt that giving people a real destination to go and express themselves would give them a feeling of belonging," says Senior Vice President Joel Cheatwood. "People feel they’re dictated to a lot by the media."
After eight years of the network’s top commentators often siding with George W. Bush’s White House, according to Nielson Media Research, FNC seems to fare much better with the 25- to 54-year-olds when they’re critical of the government. Will websites also achieve success by approaching politics in a quizzical and incredulous manner similar to that of the suits on FOX?

LL,
I just added to my favs, great site and look forward to visiting there as well! Also, Kathleen Sebillus, Health and Human services nominee, just paid up her three year deliniquency regarding her failure to pay taxes. She claims an unintentional error……Liberal Translation…..What she really meant was that she had attended the Timmy turbo-tax academy of default by ignorance!
