Whether it's called the Fairness Doctrine, the "Bunny Rabbit" doctrine or the "I think it's funny a chimpanzee killed a lady" doctrine, Obama taking the position against it stops the discussion in it's tracks for now. IMO Obama did the right thing and I'll step up and give the guy credit when he gets it right. If he flip-flops on it, I'll be the first to criticize him.
While the folks at Fox aren't part of the same right wing (or whatever wing) militia you belong to, most rational conservatives appreciate Fox's coverage compared to the NY Times, Wash Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, etc.
