FOX and Obama: An abuse of power

The Union Leader editorializes that the Obama Administration's efforts to delegitimize its critics, including press coverage it doesn't like, goes over the line.

In power, this team has taken that paranoia to new heights. The administration aggressively demonizes critics, undermines opponents and bullies anyone viewed as a potential enemy. (Just ask General Motors and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.)

The message is clear: Fall in line, or we'll use our power to attack and undermine you. That's not merely unbecoming of a President. It's unacceptable behavior for any government.
