Edwards Haircut? $400. Palin Wardrobe? $150,000. Fox News Spin? Priceless.

FOX is biased just like CNN is biased. Without bias the news would be to boring. It may be possible to write a news story without bias, but it would sound like Joe Friday. The bias really shows in the decisions as to which stories to pursue, where to place those stories, and which stories to ignore.

 

It seems that Palin's make up artist is the highest paid staffer on the campaign:

If Palin's $150,000 shopping spree had Republicans disgusted, then the report that her makeup stylist cost $22,800 for the first two weeks of October should have them livid. The stylist, Amy Strozzi, was apparently paid more than any other McCain staffer during that period.

Ms. Strozzi, who was nominated for an Emmy award for her makeup work on the television show "So You Think You Can Dance?", was paid $22,800 for the first two weeks of October alone, according to the records. The campaign categorized Ms. Strozzi's payment as "PERSONNEL SVC/EQUIPMENT."

The payment on Oct. 10 made Ms. Strozzi the single highest-paid individual in the campaign for that two-week period. (There were more than two dozen companies that got larger payments than Ms. Strozzi). She easily beat out Mr. Scheunemann, who received $12,500 in the first half of October, and Ms. Wallace, who got $12,000.

 

Of course keeping pitbull with lipsticks looking good is the most important thing for Mccain campaign.

 

I watch Fox news all the time... actually I find it the most entertaining station to watch...

and if you watch fox news... not only will they have the subliminal messages like... on their polls... question who won the debate??...with McCain's name in the color red and Obamas/ undecided in black and white...

there is a big difference... in reporting the news or asking pointed questions.. than to interjecting your opinion

Fox news anchors invite experts on issues then question/debate them as if they were experts themselves...

but the funniest thing I ever did see... was a segment with Bill O'Reilly and Greta Van Susteren both Fox news anchors.... debating a the legality of a law enforcement issue...

and here is O'Reilly trying to tell Van Susteren a lawyer what ... the law was... and he was wrong...

 

I loved how the republicans jumped on Edwards for a $400 haircut then complain about the media's $150k Palin excess story.

On another note. Dang! You wouldn't believe how much they spend on Michelle Obama's clothes. It surprised me. Here's a clip from July, months before this Palin blip.

What a mess. The kindergarden teacher voice she does is so damn annoying.
