Fox News host Greta Van Susteren, who is portrayed as a “liberal” on the conservative-leaning station was disgracefully biased against President Barack Obama during an interview she was allowed to conduct with former president Bill Clinton. Van Susteren proved to be unworthy of such an honor with her ridiculous and partisan attack of President Obama as only having visited states that he won (the Arizona trip he made must have slipped her mind) during the election. Clinton pointed out that Obama was visiting states that were having a hard time and pointed out that Obama was scheduled to visit Arizona (a state he lost that also is the home state of his presidential election rival, Sen. John McCain). Van Susteren was not too impressed by that and stumbled over her own anti-Obama, pro-Fox News bias. She looked bad in trying to justify an obviously biased point she made and looked especially bad after Clinton called her out with the point that the president was going to Arizona. I think Greta is the one who needs to set a different tone and a less biased tone.
