Media Media Matters to Launch Campaign of ‘Guerrilla Warfare and Sabotage’ Against Fox News

“The strategy that we had had toward Fox was basically a strategy of containment,” said David Brock, the founder of Media Matters. Now the strategy of the liberal group has changed. The new strategy is “war on Fox.”

Politico reports that Brock’s guerilla war against Fox is almost assuming the strategy of grassroots political activism:

The group, launched as a more traditional media critic, has all but abandoned its monitoring of newspapers and other television networks and is narrowing its focus to Fox and a handful of conservative websites, which its leaders view as political organizations and the “nerve center” of the conservative movement. The shift reflects the centrality of the cable channel to the contemporary conservative movement, as well as the loathing it inspires among liberals — not least among the donors who fund Media Matters’ staff of about 90, who are arrayed in neat rows in a giant war room above Massachusetts Avenue.

Brock plans to hire an opposition research team in its campaign against Fox News, showing that Media Matters is shifting its focus from media criticism to political activism, as Politico’s Ben Smith notes. [more]

This is an act of repression, pure and simple, Gestapoism, brown/black-shirtery, Red-Guardism, naked suppression of dissent, a betrayal of American liberty.

If Soros can be shown to be behind it, he needs to be hanged as the revolutionary, seditionist, and traitor he is.

If Obama allows this outrage to continue with his party’s funding and participation, he will have dropped any pretense of loyalty to the US Constitution, America, or its citizens. He will have become the enemy of us whom he has called his “enemies.” He will have officially become a tyrant worthy of impeachment, our only recourse according to the Constitution.

Barry, don’t make us consider the Constitution merely a “living document” to be interpreted at will. Without that honest and faithful contract that millions of us have sworn a sacred oath to uphold, your government is illegitimate, and free men will fall back on the authority of the Declaration … and of Nature’s law.

Remember, Barry, the Rubicon was only a stream.

We’ve come to Barry Caesar, not to praise him.
Don’t turn the Tea Party into a Toga Party.

    I’ve had a deep foreboding pit in my stomach since I started hearing about this and all I could muster up was a deep foreboding pit in my stomach and a bunch of swear words.

    I depise these these motherfuckers.

    The Democrat side of the aisle is now the Caesarian section.

    Is it time to take off the gloves yet because this self-imposed Queen of Marques-barry rules have become tiresome.

    This is or has been a no holds barred since the big loss in 2010 and this sicko of a President is retaliating. Support the MB tells Bibi to f.off. For the “rebels’ in Egypt, setting up a more firm muzzie state. Sue the hell out of Arizona, let the people die at the hands of drug smugglers and terrorists within that organization(s).

    Can’t help of think of this song for the last number of days.

    Lloyd,
    I wonder what happened to the Circle-D logo thing?
    Haven’t seen it around since the initial announcement.

    The only thing new about it is they are admitting it–tell me how fair they’ve been up until now?

    This will lead to violence from the tolerant diverse left, which we have already seen small samples of.

    Be ready.

    the first amendment was nice while it lasted.

    Doug: I have heard a number of people talk about the oath taken by our military members. I think that if the majority of the military wanted to keep that oath, that we’d have seen some action already.

    The lack of action in containing and removing this domestic enemy shows quite clearly where loyalties are.

    We’ll see who is still standing in a few years, Fox or Media Mutters. I’m hoping that George Soreass dumps 99.9% of his net worth into this battle so that we never have to hear from him again.

    Doug, with all due respect, I don’t think that “to defend the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic” was given to the *military* with the intent that they’d act the same way the rest of us are required to act (with pen and ink).
    The military is the constitutions last line of defense. the enemy has breached every other line in bold strides and in broad daylight. The military is there to take hard cold physical action, backed by bullets, not blog posts.

    The article states:

    “…is narrowing its focus to Fox and a handful of conservative websites”

    Does that mean….could that mean…..SondraKistan????

    Until I can behave myself and at least TRY to make my point without TRYING to denigrate people on this blog who are far far and above better people than I could ever dream of being, SondraK’s going to post this message in its stead as often as she can until I can demonstrate the civility that all you fine folks deserve.

    Toad,
    I don’t mind your droppin’ by to toss a turd sandwich in the punchbowl once in a while, but I most heartily object to lies which insult our intelligence. That shows a lack of respect. If you have any facts to contribute that back up your statement, I’ll gladly listen; but spare us the Kool-Aid drinkers’ talking points, m’kay? You look like a fool doin’ that.
