Good journalism
[Read the article: Rudy Giuliani's ties to Fox News]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Though undecided, I currently view myself as leaning toward Giuliani, though I am also fascinated by the "Reaganesque" Thompson and the FairTax-minded Huckabee. Nonetheless, I found this to article to be excellent journalism. It is actually fair: the authors do well to provide specific evidences that this is not the now-too-common guilt-by-association tactics used elsewhere.
Ultimately, if Giuliani becomes president, this will cast a dark shadow over Fox's credibility, much in the same way CNN's national credibility was lost during the Clinton years, as right-wing pundits repeatedly hammered the point that CNN's chief was a long-time buddy of Bill. However, if Fox News' current popularity is actually based on having a conservative draw (which I somewhat doubt), this article will have little impact.
But it has certainly caused me to think more about Giuliani.
