Huge waste of time, and money that should be focused elsewhere. If they want to take people on, take on Glen Beck and Rush.
I didn't read those links but in earlier releases, the WH said it considered FOX to be on par with Beck (whom, incidentally happens to be on FOX) and Rush. They consider FOX to be a political opponent, not a credible news source and intended to treat them as such. Personally, I agree with them. FOX probably sways more people against the Obama WH than any politician (or, arguably, pundit) out there today and if they are going to go up against politicians who are against them, why wouldn't they do the same with FOX?

As an aside, I'm not sure how much money or time the WH itself is wasting on this. What are they effectively doing other than bashing them in press conferences and interviews, which they would be doing anyway FOX or no FOX. It's not like they're holding a specific press conference to bash FOX and even if they did, what's the cost?

Freedom of speech is a non-issue since the WH isn't trying to legally force FOX to stop bashing them. In scanning one of the articles I see nothing that indicates the WH is taking any legal action against what they perceive to be FOX's bias.

It's about time someone stood up to Fox (and the media in general).

Yep. I found it completely depressing once I watched one of Beck's infamous segments on YouTube. Jon Stewart nailed it but sadly, Beck's viewership is up. That being said, I think there is something really wrong with Beck. I mean, the man looks like he really needs some therapy and meds.
