Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Fox News: Fair, Balanced, & the Best Legs On Television

Andy replied:

"I sense that Strother is not a Fox News fan... He must be offended that if they have a liberal political pundit on a show, Fox News will balance that out with having a conservative pundit on there as well."

You're right. I don’t like Fox News, but it's not because of that. If a story isn't actually news but propaganda to serve a particular political agenda, then it doesn't matter how many liberal or conservative pundits are all talking at once — it's still propaganda. That's why I don't like Fox along with plenty of other news organizations.

"With that said, I watch Fox News because they have the prettiest women delivering the news... :-)"

And believe me, dude — they know that!
