U P D A T E: The "WAR ON FOX" continues, but with a bit of backpeddling. Now its not quite so much FoxNews as maybe just Beck and Hannity. Odd thing is that Bobby Gibbs, and apparently his masters, seem unable to distinguish between news and opinion journalism. Here's the UPDATE in full:

The quite pathetic image I come away with from all of this is the little kid who owns the only football in the neighborhood and who stomps off home with it when he's not chosen as quarterback for the after-school pick-up game.

Here's the story. Its a pretty compelling read.
