This video, in which Fox News' Neil Cavuto practically pleads with top Democrats to stop shunning the network, tells you all you need to know about why the Dems' boycott of the network is paying off:
Best Cavuto quote: "Our offer still stands for any of them to come on this show at any time." This is very good -- a simple and elegant way for Dems to keep grinding the network's nearly nonexistent credibility deeper and deeper into the dirt. Just keep saying, "Nope, sorry, not coming on. You're a propaganda organ. End of story."
Is there any doubt from Cavuto's plea that Fox realizes just how damaging this Dem boycott could prove in the long term?
Also priceless: The only Dem Fox could get to come on was...Gary Hart. [LMAO!]
That the leading Dem candidates declined Fox's invite gives me an excuse to make one of my pet points yet again: It really is remarkable how it's now de rigeur for the Dem candidates to push back very aggressively against right-wing and even mainstream media figures, on behalf of themselves and others, in order to appeal to the Netroots and Dem primary voters in general.
