Newt Gingrich really loves taking swipes at the media, but he launched an all out war with FOX News the other day. Speaking in Delaware with Tea Party activists Gingrich said:

According to the RealClearPolitics website, which was given access to the meeting, Gingrich said: "I think Fox has been for Romney all the way through. In our experience, Callista and I both believe CNN is less biased than Fox this year.

"We are more likely to get neutral coverage out of CNN than we are of Fox, and we're more likely to get distortion out of Fox. That's just a fact."

Remember, before the election Gingrich was a FOX contributor but I don't see that happening anytime soon. In fact, FOX has already fired back. According to the Guardian:

Fox hit back in a strongly personal attack. In a statement provided to the Guardian, it said: "This is nothing other than Newt auditioning for a windfall of a gig at CNN – that's the kind of man he is. Not to mention that he's still bitter about the fact that we terminated his contributor contract."

Ouch. I don't know if Newt is looking for a job at CNN or not but I think he is looking for media attention. He loves attention and is getting some now that he took on FOX News.

What do you think? Is CNN more balanced than FOX this election season?
