Video: FNC Banned From ACORN Birthday Bash!
FOX News' Griff Jenkins covered ACORN's 39th Anniversary Gala Awards honoring Sen. Charles Schumer, Rep. Luis Guiterrez and Rep. Maxine Waters at the National Education Association building in Washington, D.C. on June 17, 2009. Our cameras were banned from the event, but ACORN allowed far-left bloggers to attend. A confrontation occurred outside the building. Watch Glenn Beck tonight at 5 p.m. ET for the full report!

I would love to see all of the butt kissing news medias and Acorn to totally destroy. We all know this pres election was bought and funded by another country. I don't want a dictator! Thank God I grew up in a time that was good! All Americans that don't like it here PLEASE LEAVE!!!!
Dave
Everyone, Take note of the crooks that are taking our money to elevate themselves to power. I wonder where they live. maybe it's time to protest in front of there homes. If you see them on the street, video there every move. TIT for TAT

WHY AREN'T ACORN NUTS BEING INVESTIGATED?

o'reilly & beck on fox are doing it unlike the main streem media that we as anericans used to depend on. i am thankful we have fox or the liberals would get a way with everything.

And this is after the CEO told OReilly that her doors were always open. Such integrity
ACORN Out of the Closet
The ACORN virus has been growing from the inside for over 50 years. It has mutated into a monster devouring all America's Freedoms.
We may have won some battles along the way, but
ACORN has won the war. Give up peacefully your master is here.
JWinGeorgia
I worked with ACORN back in the 70's. Today I regret that involvement. They should be 100% open. I say revoke their non-profit status. These people are a threat. I would liken them to the hitler youth just different paint.
Sickened...
Whatever happened to freedom of the press??? If Acorn is a community organization, they should be open, and offer coverage by all press, not just liberal supportive press. These exclusions only further the suspicions we all have of corruption and bad doings under the label of good. Wolves in sheeps clothing......everywhere we look is Acorn!!! How do we nip this in the bud? ?? or is it too late??

Someone should tell acorn, to shove their "birthday bash". Just look at what these thugs were honoring! What a joke.
Bob from Missouri
More importantly, look who they were honoring...............Chuck Shumer, best Senate prima donna around!
Toomuchspin
You have to be a crooked, tax cheating, low down, mud slinging, goose stepping, brain addled, voter fraud parolee, America hating, Marxist miscreant to be invited to an ACORN birthday party. As always, I give ACORN the finger.

fox news wasnt alowed to attend an ACORN event?!.. im shocked!.. their coverage has always been fair and balanced towards the group...

Hang up the phone, stupid.

I have a question. What will happen if like Glenn Beck said on his show that ACORN will probably change their name and go under ground.
Shawn
REAL JOURNALISM IS DEAD IN AMERICA EXCEPT ON FOX NEWS! BUT I know how “We The People” Can STOP all of this! All we need to do is spread the word and have one GIANT TEA PARTY in Washington. I am sure we could mobilize 30-50 million people to have a PEACEFUL sit down in the streets of Washington for at least a week, I would bet that we could rein in all of this government WAIST! GLEN BECK said it best 6-16-09 not a quote, but something like this. I never thought I would be saying this, but AMERICANS should be taking a lesson from the IRANIANS! (WATCH WHAT IS HAPPENING IN ONE OF THE WORST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD) IT IS COMING TO US IF WE DO NOT TAKE A STAND NOW! I do not want to own banks, car companies and what ever else they find that is too big to fail! And I certainly do not want NATIONALIZED HEALTH CARE! That would be a death sentence to me and millions of others! LET’S START USING THESE COMPUTERS TO SPREAD THIS MESSAGE AND REACH OUT TO EVERYBODY BEFORE IT IS TO LATE! E-mail everybody in your address book with this message! If we can get together and set a date SOON! We could stop this. We could flood AIRLINES, AMTRAK, GREYHOUND’s, DRIVE OUR OWN CARS AND PUT A STOP TO THIS! Our Constitution is on FIRE RIGHT NOW! AND WHEN DID THEY STOP TEACHING IT IN SCHOOL?
And if “WE THE PEOPLE” do not PUT THE FIRE OUT THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT OF IT!
We are on the FAST TRACK to COMMUNISM! That is not what this once GREAT NATION WAS FOUNDED ON!

You should have just kicked the door in and entered like they do....ACORN has no respect for rules...you should have just pushed them aside and went on in

Lest it be forgotten; as always, I give ACORN the finger.

Well put !
Bill
Why would Fox News even want to go there. They're just trying to start mess, shamee
Ruger
Why wouldn't you? Don't you want to know what your tax dollars are being spent on. They claim that they do not support any political party. Funny, I did not see any conservatives at the event.
ryan
oh you attended?... and polled
kilmon1
To bring forth the story , to do the job they do very well ,to give Americans an up-date on all events taking place . Not the hidden or un-reported events , enough said .
an american
Everyone needs to go to this site thepetitionsite.com/politics/activist and choose your weapon
Buddy
After the 4th of July, some of us are going to New Orleans to check out the ACORN headquarters there.
willie, northside
Don't forget your guns. You know you are nothing without them.

I AM SURPRISED THE NEW BLACK PANTHER PARTY WAS NOT PROVIDING SECURITY OUTSIDE. IT IS NO SURPRISE THAT IRAN WANTS TO CONTROL THE MEDIA. ACORN IS NO DIFFERENT,MAYBE THE PANTHERS WERE PANTING INSIDE.

In light of the firing of IG Walpin, who is the Inspector General that oversees ACORN? Doesn't look like they're doing their job, so I guess they get to keep it?

This is surprising to who?
Mr Redneck
That is why I couldn't be a camera man for a news corp. I would have cleaned that guy's clock for shoving me from behind.

ROGER THAT , WELL SAID .
redneck geek
Yeah, second that one! I'd have waxed him.
willie, northside
@kilmon: I call BS on your claim. You had lots of practice squatting on you know what.
kilmon1
This is for willysouthside . It would be un-fair to use your preference on others who do not condone the life-style . It would seem you do not wish any discussion since you did not wish a reply . Should I need to correct matters , be surr I would not squat , very poor selection of words . I am a veteran and the only thing we were thinking about was staying alive . You need to grow-up or go away .

FOX should be honored by not getting into that bunch of corrupted community organizers. We all know who they are now, and what they're plotting to do. 2010 CENSUS, 75 SIGNATURES OF ONE PERSON TO VOTE, FINDING WAYS TO STEAL HARD WORKING CITIZENS TAX DOLLARS. They have no credit.

Too bad Griff had to get near those snakes!!

I saw it years ago not long after it came out. It was scary to think that a government could evolve to that and no one, including me thought that sort of thing could ever happen in America. Now , I see it can and IS happening. PLEASE WAKE UP AMERICA.

Thing will not improve in this country until the carcinogenic quartet is voted out of the senate. I am speaking of Dodd, Pelosi, Reid & Frank. These individuals have such a negative impact on this country that it seems as if they are destroying it.
I wonder who shut down the San Wakiem Valley? 80,000 people were left unemployed to save some minnow. I don"t think any conservative would have done this. Sounds like something Pelosi or one of her friends may have done.
If you vote for Pelosi or any of the others mentioned above, I hope you personally feel the results of their ugly policies.
kilmon1
a , Roger ,this is for willie north or southside , you may have many things to flap your or should I say the hole under your nose , you are very , well low born , so be it , get in to the reailty of what is our situtation as well as the end result . You are a nothing since you will not leave a returm , may be numerious reasons for this , whatever ,you or whatever to stand or shut-up . Dumazz .

tate...don't agree with you. Just shows you how corrupt these people in acorn are. They wouldn't even come over to say hi! From what I remember it was the Fox camera man that got pushed around. What is wrong with asking questions? Truth hurts don't it!
