Unclench It, Howie

Howie Kurtz has started an "Obama Adulation Watch," his snarky attempt to point out how the press is somehow in the bag for Obama.  I am starting my own "Howard Kurtz Fox Cocksucking Watch" to point out just how deep down his throat Fox has got its cock.

A little context. Kurtz purports to be an objective reporter on the media. Because the press needs to cover itself for the good of the republic. And, he's supposedly an unbiased navel gazer. Yet, he's married to a Republican activist/consultant. But, come on JK, you say, you are assessing guilt by association.

Shut up, fool. I have the facts.  It seems like every week, Kurtz does a profile in the Post extolling the virtue of some element of the Fox empire.  For example, last week, he did a puff piece on Brett Baier, the well-coifed cipher who is replacing Brit Hume on the 6PM Special report.  Basically, it was how Brett shits awesome, so Fox will be fine after the changeover.  The day before -- literally the day before -- he did a puff piece on Liz Claman, a Fox Business Channel host. The gist of that piece is that she works hard and is not as dumb as she might seem.  This week he had a pice about how non-diverse the White House press corps is; his main example of a progressive network on race: Fox with their WH correspondent, Wendall Goler. 

So, do the math: Kurtz thinks Obama got a pass and wants to hold truth to power. And, he has Fox News cock breath. That adds up to a big nothing according to my math. The Post needs to eliminate. Unclench your jaw, Howie. And someone at the Post needs to offer him a buyout.
