What do you mean you don't just blindly agree everything I say? You're banned!

It might just be me but I think there is something extremely undemocratic in the White House's vendetta against Fox News.

I don't see that it is appropriate for the Democrats to publicly state that Fox News is not a news organisation, and should not be treated as such.

It went even further on Thursday when the pool of five major news organisations, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN & Fox News was reduced to four for a briefing with 'pay czar' Kenneth Feinberg.

See if you can guess which company was uninvited.

The one good thing about this story is the fact that the other four news companies refused to go ahead with the briefing, which would include not broadcasting the views the Democrats wanted the public to hear, if Fox News were not allowed in.

The other companies have also pressed senior White House figures on the issue whenever they have had the chance, including an ABC reporter who quizzed President Obama on the issue.

Obama claimed he wasn't losing any sleep over the issue.

Well of course not. You're trying to discredit a legitimate news organisation purely because they disagree with a lot of your policies!

The White House, the President and his senior advisers do not come out of this well at all. Are they going to try this every time somebody says something they don't like? Is this what democracy is these days?

Maybe the President will one day realise that your friends do not just blindly go along with whatever you do or say. Your real friends will be the ones to tell you when you are wrong.

I'm sure this story will run and run but at the moment I score it:
Fox News 1 The White House 0.
