Rep. Alan Grayson, the Florida Democratic congressman who made headlines recently with his provocative partisan comments, told supporters Friday he’s being stalked by FOX News.


In a fundraising email sent out by his campaign, Grayson said FOX News is ambushing him because he’s a “strong voice for justice” but that he won’t be taken down by the cable news network’s “weapons of mass distraction.”


The confrontation that sparked the note involved FOX News correspondent Griff Jenkins, who approached the freshman congressman outside his Capitol Hill office Wednesday and repeatedly asked Grayson what he meant when he called Federal Reserve adviser Linda Robertson a “K Street whore” and whether he would apologize to Vice President Cheney for saying “blood drips from his teeth when he speaks.”


Jenkins also asked Grayson for his reaction to New York Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner’s quote in POLITICO referring to the combative congressman “one fry short of a Happy Meal.”


Grayson declined to respond to the questions, telling Jenkins several times that he would have to make an appointment with his press secretary, and accused him of “violating the rules.”


“Do you know what it means to make an appointment, sir? Do you know what that means?” Grayson asked. “I’m asking you to do what every other reputable news source does, which is to make an appointment… Why don’t you make an appointment and follow the rules everyone else follows — except FOX.”


FOX’s Bill O’Reilly, host of the top-rated cable news show, aired the footage of Grayson on his program Wednesday evening, and interviewed Jenkins about the incident. Jenkins said Grayson called the police as he waited outside the congressman’s office for an interview.


“You could hear, audibly standing in the hallways, the congressman at a shouting level saying, ‘Why won’t these people leave! Why can’t you make them go away!’ And the police officer saying, ‘Sir, they have a right to be there. The hallways are public,’” Jenkins told O’Reilly.

Go get 'em Al!
It looks like they and theirs just can't handle the criticism.
 
How do you know you're not working for a real news network?

When, as a producer for a show on said network, you decide to camp out in a hallway and ambush a legislator who's available to the press by appointment.

The guy won't make an appointment, that was just a ruse, which you fell for.:good4u:

O'REILLY: With no due respect, Grayson, you know, we have called this man 10 times. He's not going to give you an appointment, Jenkins. Here's Griff Jenkins from Washington. He's not going to do that. He's just — I'm not going to call the guy a name, because that gets down to his level. But it's just outrageous. It is an outrage that this guy will refuse to answer questions that are absolutely legitimate, and I applaud you for keeping your cool and asking the questions in the face of that filibuster.

Now, we tried to get this guy. You had a really hard time tracking him down, right?

GRIFF JENKINS, "FACTOR" PRODUCER: That's exactly right, Bill. And by the way, we're still waiting to get slotted in with my appointment.

O'REILLY: Yeah, I know.

JENKINS: I tried everything from phone calls to e-mails to actually doing the old fashioned diplomacy, just to show up in his office and say, hey, listen, this story has changed. The press secretary has put out two different statements in apology, first trying to spin it and, you know, not getting anywhere. Maybe go in and just say would you just comment for us? He wouldn't.

Have you ever noticed the frequency of Fox having their own staff reporters and paid analysts on one another's show as "guests" with opinions to prove their own agenda? You may call it journalism, others might call it journalistic masturbation, but for gosh sakes don't call it fact.

The dude's a weenie. He has refused to set an appointment and so a reporter does what ALL reporters in DC do and catch congressional members in hallways...Imagine a reporter wanting to ask an elected polititian to explain his outrageous remarks...the nerve!

Anyone who pisses off neocons as much as he seems to can't be all bad.

Have you ever noticed how often people suggest that editorial shows somehow are not supposed to portray an opinion.

Nice attempt at deflection from the fact that Grayson lied, since he had no intention off making an appointment with anyone from FNC. :good4u:

Well shockingly some legislators will not grant interviews with some of the press, thus the reporters turn to the public venues of the hallways, bought and paid for by you and I.
 
Or scheduled an appointment with him.
