Maybe the left can somehow defend this. The left....just as much if not more anti-American as Al Queda
Newly published emails show the top spokeswoman at the U.S. Justice Department regularly collaborating with the liberal advocacy group Media Matters on stories that slam the administration's critics.
The emails, obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request and published by The Daily Caller, often show department public affairs chief Tracy Schmaler communicating with Media Matters bloggers. Sometimes, the emails were in response to inquiries. Other times, Schmaler was pitching ideas, according to the Caller.
In a January 2012 email chain, Schmaler sent a Media Matters writer lines from House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa's comments at a recent hearing. She reportedly underlined passages where the California Republican tries to explain the difference between Operation Fast and Furious and other anti-gunrunning operations under former President George W. Bush.
Hours later, an article appeared on Media Matters' site titled "Rep. Issa Ties Himself in Fast and Furious Knots."
Daily Caller editor Tucker Carlson, also a Fox News contributor, said the emails show "moment-to-moment coordination" between the department and Media Matters.
"We received a massive amount of these communiques that indicate direct coordination between the Obama Justice Department ... and Media Matters to subvert news stories," he said Tuesday. "This proves coordination."
Emails from late 2010 also reportedly showed Schmaler sending Media Matters information to help challenge claims that the department dealt lightly with New Black Panther members who allegedly intimidated voters in Philadelphia in 2008.
Another March 12 email showed Schmaler pointing out "false" statements made by Tea Party Nation founder Judson Phillips in a Fox News interview. Phillips called Operation Fast and Furious a "political operation" -- pushing a claim that the administration let guns walk across the Mexico border to build a case for gun control.
The Media Matters writer then wrote a blog slamming Phillips' "right-wing conspiracy theory," and also sent the text to Schmaler.
The Daily Caller reported that throughout the exchanges, Media Matters staffers were often sending to Schmaler the full text of what they wrote about the department's critics.

I think I saw that headline on CNN this morning.
FOX ran a similar piece, but the story was slightly different.

The justice department takes a filmmaker into custody for making a movie obstensibly about Islam...he's violated no laws, just angered some irrational idiots. The justice department coordinates with media matters to spin and create news...actively creating a propaganda arm. Freedom of expression and the concept of a free and independent media are under assault by the government of the United States
Liberals respond by criticizing Fox News

No kidding especially since Fox has the most Repub/Liberal debate of ANY network. They're so bias to the right they even run ad spots for CNN and their shows. More bullshit propaganda from the left when can't take the truth.

Even if they are the most "balanced and fair"(which I seriously doubt) network available doesn't mean that they actually are fair and balanced. Do you take their news reports at face value? Are you really that dumb?

Typical failed liberal response when you can't defend your own bullshit, attempt to distract with unrelated topics.
This coming from the same guy who was copying and pasting financial quotes from websites and posing them as his own on the politics board.
You are one massive epic failure, go step in front of a bus you waste of human flesh.

this bears the hallmarks of communism

I honestly don't know what you are talking about, provide the links that you are talking about please?
listen, Coach is stupid, we all know it, I open the thread for pity's sake, he has melted down more times then a cinnamon candle. He is a dolt, he ignores facts, believes that the earth is 6000 years old and believes in talking snakes and incestual relations.
You now fit that category, how ironic the charge you level me with you yourself commit in the next few sentences, stupid much? Find this info you speak of, I will leave getbig if you find me claiming financial quotes as my own.
