The 'fringe-media' comes to the rescue of Fox News... to save their own necks.

The fringe media rejected an offer from the White House to interview their new 'Pay Czar', but excluded Fox News. All of the other networks declined the interview unless Fox News was included.

If the Administration was going to do this to Fox, they could do it to others.
