Department of "Not Surprised At All" Department

I occasionally do work for a network whose parent company is Fox, and this morning I had to go into their offices to exchange some material. Although I'll peek at O'Reilly or Hannity in weak moments, waiting in their lobby is typically the only time I get to see Fox News. Now, today, the White House released a tightrope-walking report that again says "The US is safer (from terrorism) but not yet safe," trying to give the impression that "we're doing a good enough job for you to re-elect us Republicans, but we're not doing SO good that you shouldn't be scared out of your wits into voting for Repubicans." The Democrats also released a report today, citing failures in the Bush Administration's strategy in fighting terror and specific steps to combat it.

This is how Fox News covered that Democratic report, and the ensuing press conference.

They conducted an interview with Republican Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona, who is running for re-election, and at random intervals, up in the corner, they'd go to a live shot of the Democratic press conference, with the sound down.

Fair and balanced.
