In recent years, at least twenty Fox News personalities have endorsed, raised money, or campaigned for Republican candidates or causes, or against Democratic candidates or causes, in more than 300 instances and in at least 49 states. Republican parties and officials have routinely touted these personalities' affiliations with Fox News to sell and promote their events.

And no one who appears on Fox ever campaigned or raised money for a Dem? Beckel, Estrich, etc...........
Can you point to one of the news people, or is it all opinion people? Surely you know the difference Hcap. Or is dissenting opinion not allowed in Obama's America?
I read the "story" OMG what a friggin joke. Newt Gingrich, Mike Hucakbee, Sarah Palin, and Karl ROve campaigned for Republicans? You're kidding me? I never would have guessed it.
Hcap just shooting more blanks. But, the Noos spelling is oh so clever. I think my son's friends in 2nd grade are more on the ball.

What a pathetic mess hcap has become (has always been). Runs around gloating after BO gets elected and has nothing to say since with the exception of 'Faux' (how 1998).
PAAAAA-thetic.
Sucks to be him.

And that was before the first cuppa joe this morning. Had I waited another 10 minutes, the response might have been, "So what?"

Find the equivalent if you can.
Further, Faux and the rest of the right is greatly responsible for FALSE rumors and stories abour Obama.
Bush is no where close..

The party of no ... credibility
A look at Snopes.com shows rumors about Obama to be
more numerous and vicious than the ones about Bush were
American right-wing leaders are responding to complaints about their adherents’ insults, threats, and acts of violence by claiming that such problems occur on the left as well. Of course, they don’t dare to compare and quantify such behavior. That would mean acknowledging that, for example, Congressional historians find no precedent for Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C., shouting at the president during a joint session of Congress. Or that there was a distrubing spike in death threats to the president in the months after President Barack Obama took office.
To keep on top of urban myths of all kinds, I subscribe to the Snopes.com update list, and I noticed a pattern there that I thought deserved to be examined more arithmetically. It struck me I was seeing a lot more rumors about President Obama, and a lot more false rumors, than I remembered from earlier years. So I ran the numbers, as of this week.
After eight years in the White House (with Snopes.com around all that time), George W. Bush has been the subject of 47 internet rumors. After less than two years in office, Barack Obama has been the subject of 87, or nearly twice as many.
Even more telling is the relative accuracy of those stories. For Bush, 20 rumors, or 43%, are true. Only 17, or 36%, are false. The remainder are of mixed veracity (4), undetermined (4), or unclassifiable (2).
In contrast, for Obama only 8 of the 87 rumors, or 9%, are true, and a whopping 59, or 68%, are whoppers. There are 17 of mixed veracity and 3 undetermined.

Again NO equivalence
