As we reported yesterday, GOP presidential hopeful Rick Santorum vented to Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade that his network “shills” for Mitt Romney.
“[Romney] has Fox News shilling for him every day — no offense, Brian, but I see it — and yet, he can‘t seal the deal because he just doesn’t have the goods to be able to motivate the Republican base and win this election,” a frustrated Santorum said.
On Tuesday evening, FNC’s Greta van Susteren confronted Santorum about his Fox criticism with a “good-hearted jab.” In reply, Santorum softened his criticism, reassuring Greta that she and Sean Hannity have been “exemplar.”
“I’m not going to be whining about this, it’s the reality,” he added. “We’ve overcome a lot in this race and we’re on our way to victory tonight, we’re on our way to victory in this election.”

Mar. 14, 2012 at 12:52pmIf you don’t think the elites have been against Santorum you have not been watching this entire story, first during all the pre-Iowa debates Mr. Santorum was placed either left or right of center stage and didn’t get many questions, only the “choicen ones” would get questions, then he won Iowa, he was still not center stage, as more and more states have spoken that they like his message he has been moved towards the center, only really being allowed there once the media favorites dropped out. Even Fox news is picking favorites, funny how their picks (depending who is talking) is Newt (Mr. Big Government Progressive) and Mitt (Liberal- dare I say RINO) and really can’t bring themselves to say how big Santorums’ win in the South have been. Fair and Balances is leaning a little these days

Mar. 14, 2012 at 2:57pmPeople who are higher in the polls get more time in the debates and more news coverage. That’s not overt bias, it’s common sense. When Santorum became a frontrunner, he was put center stage. If there’s another debate on March 19, Santorum and Romney will be in the center.
The only bias here is what you’d expect with the front runners getting more attention.
