Telling It Like It Is

"I want to talk about the media angle, because we've avoided it, it's the elephant in the room -- it's Fox News. Come on. It's [Bill] O'Reilly, it's [Sean] Hannity, it's [John] Gibson. They're demagogues who realize that at Christmastime, you can rally the masses on this issue. They'll do it every Christmas. They did it last Christmas, they'll do it next Christmas."

-- Neal Gabler, on the 12/3/05 "Fox News Watch," on how Fox News has largely manufactured the "war on Christmas" non-issue
