White House: FOX off-limits

Democratic political strategists have been asked by the White House to not appear on Fox New Channel recently. The reason seems to be that because Fox is not a true news gathering network and more of a Obama-bashing entity that they should not help them with any stories. They also think this will further show how one-sided Fox is.

But isn't denying Fox any statement from the Democratic camp really doing an injustice to themselves? If people are only watching Fox and not other news gathering sites - then how are they going to get any other alternate perspective, even if it is then bashed or taken out of context?

Do you think they are protecting themselves and right to deny a program that has alterior motives anyway or so you think they should take any invite from Fox to appear as a chance to get their side out their - or is that not possible? What do you think the main issue is here anyway? Is any one's rights being violated? - Fox, the general people, or the White House?
