[WillYourVoteBCounted]

175. guess Faux predicted Arlen Specter accurately

lol

[happygoluckytoyou]

188. SO MANY IT TIRES THE MIND JUST TO LIST THEM

Republican activist Parker J. Bena pleaded guilty to possession of child pornography on his home computer and was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison and fined $18,000.
Republican parole board officer and former Colorado state representative, Larry Jack Schwarz, was fired after child pornography was found in his possession.
Republican strategist and Citadel Military College graduate Robin Vanderwall was convicted in Virginia on five counts of soliciting sex from boys and girls over the internet.
Republican city councilman Mark Harris, who is described as a “good military man” and “church goer,” was convicted of repeatedly having sex with an 11-year-old girl and sentenced to 12 years in prison.
Republican businessman Jon Grunseth withdrew his candidacy for Minnesota governor after allegations surfaced that he went swimming in the nude with four underage girls, including his daughter.
Republican campaign worker, police officer and self-proclaimed reverend Steve Aiken was convicted of having sex with two underage girls.
Republican director of the “Young Republican Federation” Nicholas Elizondo molested his 6-year old daughter and was sentenced to six years in prison.
Republican president of the New York City Housing Development Corp. Russell Harding pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography on his computer.
Republican benefactor of conservative Christian groups, Richard A. Dasen Sr., was found guilty of raping a 15-year old girl. Dasen, 62, who is married with grown children and several grandchildren, has allegedly told police that over the past decade he paid more than $1 million to have sex with a large number of young women.
Republican Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld authorized the rape of children in Iraqi prisons in order to humiliate their parents into providing information about the anti-American insurgency. See excerpt of one prisoner’s report here and his full report here.
Sex and Shoplifting
1) In March 2006, Claude Allen, Bush's top domestic policy aide, was arrested when he tried to return items he had shoplifted from Target for cash refunds. Allen, who made $161,000 a year, blamed stress from Hurricane Katrina.
2) In 2005, bloggers perked up their ears when a reporter named Jeff Gannon asked a softball question at a Bush press conference. Some sleuthing turned up nude photos of Gannon—whose real name was James Guckert—on male escort websites.
3) Randall Tobias, Bush’s AIDS Czar, mandated that organizations must oppose prostitution in order to receive American aid. It later emerged that Tobias purchased services through the notorious D.C. Madam, though Tobias maintained he only bought “massages.”
4) The Interior Department’s Minerals Management Service would not seem to be the sexiest government agency. But a departmental investigation last year found that officials had “frequently consumed alcohol at industry functions, had used cocaine and marijuana, and had sexual relationships with oil and gas company representatives.”
Where’d the Money Go?
5) When testifying before Congress in 2007, L. Paul Bremer, the former ambassador to Iraq, was unable to account for as much as $12 billion—about half of his budget—as the head of the Coalition Provisional Authority between May 2003 and June 2004. According to a report by Rep. Henry Waxman, contractors brought bags to meetings in order to collect shrink-wrapped bundles of money.
6) In 2004, Pentagon auditors found that Halliburton had not adequately accounted for $1.8 billion of the bill it sent to the United States government for its work in Iraq and Kuwait.
7) Also that year, Bunnatine Greenhouse, the Army Corp of Engineers' chief contracting officer, charged that KBR, a Halliburton subsidiary, unfairly received billions of dollars worth of no-bid contracts in Iraq. Greenhouse was demoted in 2005.
Disappearances
8) In 2002, Canadian citizen Maher Arar was detained at an airport in New York and spirited away to Syria where he was tortured and held for 10 months by his captors before being returned home. Canadian officials investigated Arar's case, declared he was innocent, and paid him $9 million in compensation. American officials refused to admit the mistake and instead kept Arar on a terrorist watch list.
9) Army Captain James Yee, a Muslim chaplain in Guantanamo Bay, was hooded, shackled, and detained in solitary confinement for 76 days on charges of espionage. Within a year the case against Yee had collapsed and the Army tried to save face by charging him with hoarding pornography.
All the President’s Wordsmiths
10) In an e-mail to friends, Danielle Crittenden, the wife of White House speechwriter David Frum, bragged that her husband had written Bush’s famous “Axis of Evil” line. The e-mail leaked to Slate.com, causing a minor scandal.
11) Part of the self-created mythology of White House speechwriter Michael Gerson was that he composed his speeches in longhand. But as fellow scribe Matthew Scully later noted: “At the precise moment when the State of the Union address was being drafted at the White House by John and me, Mike was off pretending to craft the State of the Union in longhand for the benefit of a reporter.”
No Administration Friend Left Behind
12) First, there was Columnist Gate: In 2005, USA Today reported that conservative commentator Armstrong Williams received a $240,000 contract from the Department of Education to promote No Child Left Behind on his television show and to sell other African American journalists on the legislation. Later, The Washington Post uncovered a similar deal with columnist Maggie Gallagher to promote a marriage initiative for the Department of Health.
13) A Defense Department report in 2006 urged the military to end its practice of paying Iraqi journalists to publish pro-American stories in their newspapers, arguing the tactic would "undermine the concept of a free press."
14) According to The New York Times, Karl Rove scored lobbyist Ralph Reed in a lucrative contract with Enron in 1997 to gain his support in the 2000 presidential race.
15) David Safavian, the former chief of staff of the General Services Administration, was convicted of helping Jack Abramoff on a shady land deal as well as concealing a "lavish weeklong golf trip" paid for by Abramoff.
16) As head of the World Bank, Paul Wolfowitz was forced to resign in disgrace after he helped his "female companion," Shaha Riza, score a $60,000 pay raise and promotion—and then tried to cover it up.
Down the Memory Hole
17) Bush fundraiser Lurita Doan's gig as chair of the General Services Administration went down in flames when she was accused of asking agency staff to help Republican candidates win elections. Doan denied any wrongdoing. When witnesses said she asked her staff at a meeting "How can we use GSA to help our candidates in the next election?" Doan claimed she had no memory of the presentation.
18) Though Army microbiologist Bruce Ivins, who committed suicide in 2008, was suspected of being the anthrax mailer, that didn't keep Bush and Cheney from openly speculating that Al Qaeda was behind the attacks and even going so far as to pressure FBI officials to come up with a Bin Laden connection, according to the New York Daily News.
Mission Accomplished
19) In 2003, Bush went to a warehouse in St. Louis to give a speech entitled “Strengthening America’s Economy.” But the boxes laid out before the presidential podium bore the label "Made in China." The labels were then obscured with white paper. The White House blamed an "overzealous advance volunteer.”
The Last Word
20) The administration ethos was nicely summarized during the attorney-general scandal investigation in a testy exchange between former White House Political Director Sara Taylor and Sen. Patrick Leahy. Taylor: "I took an oath to the president. … And I believe that taking that oath means that I need to respect, and do respect, my service to the President." Leahy: "No, the oath says that you take an oath to uphold and protect the Constitution of the United States. That is your paramount duty. I know that the President refers to the government being his government—it's not."

[xxqqqzme]

191. good lord

It's like watching a trailer for Outfoxed. I've never watched fixed news so I am always amazed, stunned, left speechless b what they get away with. And to think my mother has them on ALL day No wonder she believes every crazy ass, RW, o'lielly inspired, limpballs endorsed email she gets.

And this is just a small sampling of what goes on 24/7. I am incredulous.

[proud patriot]

157. I don't

but I've witnessed so many since I came to DU at least
10 times .. Too Convenient

[felinetta]

161. More photos

Go to Crooksandliars.com.  Scroll down a bit and voila -
photos from Faux with the (D) by their names.
Isn't Faux new special?

[K Gardner]

150. Top of the post KICK for .. HOLY COW... 12,000 + hits?? !! Good job !

[Pirate Smile]

174. Now over 15,000,

[babylonsister]

2. Hahaha! So typical. nt

[dmr]

43. Because it's typical, isn't there a legitimate FCC complaint here?

Fox advertises as a news station. They purposely lie. Is that not a violation of 'truth in advertising'?

Just wondering ....

[Seldona]

128. I believe that has been settled.

Fox was sued by an anchor who refused to knowingly pass on errant information. They fired her, she sued, and lost. Fox's argument was that they have a RIGHT to lie to their viewers, and they won.

Not that Fox is the only culprit here. Every major network filed an Amicus Brief in support of Fox's stance.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

146. jeezus H krist......

hard to stomach the people who live on this shit.

It's hard when it's a friend--I just have to avoid politics completely. If she didn't also keep it off the table(after I asked why she needles me when I never needle her), there'd be no friendship....

[marybourg]

147. No. that's a civil suit between 2 people. A complaint to the FCC

is a regulatory matter. It probably couldn't hurt for lots of complaints to go to the FCC.

[OnyxCollie]

171. Jane Akre

Court Reverses Ruling on Jane Akre's rBGH Suit
http://www.organicconsumers.org/rbgh/akre022103.cfm

NEW WORLD COMMUNICATIONS OF

JANE AKRE,
Appellee.
Case No. 2D01-529
http://www.2dca.org/opinion/February%2014,%202003/2D01-529.pdf

[HopeHoops]

190. I filed one and got back a form letter (PDF)

It didn't address my complaint which was FALSE ADVERTISING for using "Fair and Balanced". It was just a "yadda yadda can't dictate what they say yadda yadda" letter.

[EOTE]

3. You have got to be f'ing kidding me?!?!

AGAIN?!? Can anyone honestly say that they do this accidentally?

[nebenaube]

22. It's not accidental

it is coordinated... note the choice of Tie!

[zbdent]

64. tie not a real indicator ...

Kerry wore red, Bush wore blue ...

but then, Kerry was probably far more conservative now than the "liberal media" is trying to paint Bush43 was ... remember? They started saying "Bush spent like a drunken Democrat!" ... NO ... Bush spent like a Republican without any oversight ...

[Richardo]

4. In fucking credible

They should be levied a $10 million fine every time that happens.

[FiveGoodMen]

60. They should, indeed.

Lying by the news media has destroyed this country.

It's the one crime for which I think we need a death penalty.

Yes, really.

[cascadiance]

76. Hell, corporations believe they are people! They SHOULD then be able to die then!

Yes, indeedy...

[FiveGoodMen]

81. Hmm. That's a twist I hadn't thought of!

I was suggesting capital punishment for the individuals who lied.

Maybe taking down the whole company is even better. (Not that it will ever happen)

[The Wizard]

88. Shoot them

Shoot them all.

[Oldtimeralso]

97. Why Not?

The Supreme Court corruptly declared that a corporation has the rights of a person, with the rights the responsibilities souled come along. This includes TREASON!

[FiveGoodMen]

100. Definitely food for thought.

Or they could officially reverse that stupid corporate personhood nonsense.

But news-liars still need to face harsh legal penalties.

[Autonomy]

104. Corporations don't believe anything

because they are not people. The people who own corporations believe it's in their personal interest to promote the idea that corporations are people. Not to be a nitpicker, just aiming for consistency. ;)

[cascadiance]

106. Good correction. But those owning corporations would have you believe that corporations ARE...

... thinking and "believing" these things too.

[Doc_Technical]

113. Corporations ARE people.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Clara_County_v._Southern_Pacific_Railroad

[cascadiance]

120. I guess since a court clerk said so, that makes it so! So sad the way our justice system works!...

And he was also a railroad company exec as well...

Since when do appointed court clerks make laws that trump our constitution!

Down with "court clerk activist" corporate courts!

[MNBrewer]

165. A corporation is NOT a person, however.

[quakerboy]

156. At the very least

Corps, being "persons" should not be able to be "owned" by anyone. That's called slavery, and I for one don't happen to agree with it.

So being then being persons, and given that they have no brain activity(given the lack of brains) and no heartbeat(given the lack of a heart), etc, they should be declaired legaly dead. Or at the very least, given tests, which given their lack of a body or brain to answer questions with, and No Parents who can submit a DNA match, turned over to Child or Adult Protective Services for their own welfare and caretaking.

[ClusterFreak]

5. Un. Fucking. Believable.

Except it's not.

It's Faux.

[marmar]

6. So I guess it's just "a mistake" this time too, huh Faux?

Rupert Murdoch ought to be charged with multiple felonies for Conspiracy to Keep People Stupid.

[YOY]

7. You can't be serious.

As if SC would ever elect a Democrat as a Governor.

[Cass]

8. They do that EVERY single time a republican gets in trouble!

What jerks. They need to grow up already.

[trueblue2007]

29. hahahahahahaa, I JUST PEED MY PANTS

THIS IS HYSTERICAL.

[Arkana]

9. OK, they cannot call this one an "accident".

It happens EVERY time there's a Republican admitting to an affair.

[Vickers]

10. Presto change-o!

:crazy:

[BOSSHOG]

11. An evil liberal democrat with

a humongous evil penis.

Faux is just showing what they think of their audience of morons. Heh, heh, lets just put the lil (D) up there and blame it on the others. Now thats fair and balanced, over and over and over again.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

12. LOL! Someone in Underpants' threads called this.

[AldebTX]

108. Someone Needs to Compile A Pic Gallery

Of all the mis-labeled Republicans.

[theHandpuppet]

179. Yep, we need an album...

For a You Tube presentation. Folks need to know the real score.

[billyoc]

13. May their lies be prophetic.

The people of SC have suffered under Republican rule long enough.

[SlipperySlope]

19. LOL!

[EFerrari]

14. They're hilarious. I was just watching Mosaic which is a compilation

of the top stories from the Arab media. The clip from PressTV (Iran, state run) reminds me SO MUCH of Faux. Everyone else reported a demonstration and PressTV said it didn't happen. It's like they're broadcasting from Mars or from Fox Studios! lol

[Bombero1956]

15. they just think we're as stupid as they are

We should flood their phone lines everytime they do it.

[flvegan]

16. It's because their dumbshit viewers only get their info from Fox.

I'm surprised they didn't superimpose tentacles or alien eyes on him.

[krispos42]

17. Tell Keith and Rachel! K&R

[nomaco-10]

18. I hope this is picked up on every single cable news show tonight. n/t

[Blue_Tires]

20. EVERY fucking time...

this is getting old...

[nomaco-10]

28. It's beyond ridiculous at this point. Uneffin' believable. n/t

[Blackhatjack]

21. That did not take long! They are so predictable!

[Kadie]

31. LOL! You called it!

Just saw your post in another thread.

I have been out and am trying to catch up on the news.

:rofl:

[Blackhatjack]

70. I think Faux News Has A full time paid staffer responsible for this task....

... after all, this is a very common occurrence in the Republican Party.

[SammyWinstonJack]

23. No f'in way! Still making that 'mistake', eh Faux sNooz?

:eyes:

[WeDidIt]

24. MOTHERFUCKERS!

They pull this shit on purpose. They can NO LONGER claim it's an "accident".

[Beetwasher]

25. Oh Brother!

You can't make this shit up.

[Catshrink]

26. Too bad we don't have a compliation of them.

and could file a complaint with the FCC for willful false reporting. Or is that even possible? Media Matters might have the info.

[rudy23]

50. I would LOVE to see a compliation. The pics have to be somewhere on the DU server.

I wish I had time to track all those threads down.

[seafan]

126. Actually, we do.

27. Send THAT SCREENSHOT TO KEITH OLBERMAN

....I would like to see FAUXNews the WORST PERSONS OF THE WORLD....

[eleny]

33. Do you have a good email for him? I'll send him the link to the OP, too

The more he gets, the better the chances. They deserve a Worst Person for this.

[Parker CA]

42. [email protected] has worked for me in the past.

[Left Is Write]

55. He spells his name with two Ns.

[gdebs]

121. Pay back

Our pay back is simple--------We should label every
Republican---"Republican,"    

[eleny]

123. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[RiverStone]

46. 2nd that

Faux will not change --- all we can do is expose the pricks for what they are.

I'd wager Keith would be very glad to post this on Countdown. :hi:

[grytpype]

30. Well, in their alternate universe he is a Dem, he became one as soon as he screwed up.

[derby378]

32. Remember what FOX News did to Steve Wilson and Jane Akre?

What started out as a fight over a news report over rBGH in milk turned into an appeals court ruling that states, in effect, that news organizations have the First Amendment freedom to misrepresent the news. And lawyers for FOX News were the ones to make that ridiculous argument.

[Doc_Technical]

116. News media not required to tell the truth.

http://www.ceasespin.org/ceasespin_blog/ceasespin_blogger_files/fox_news_gets_okay_to_misinform_public.html

[verges]

170. Weren't there some sort of rules

established that fiction cannot be depicted as news after Welles "War of the Worlds" in 1938?

edit: spelling

[MNDemNY]

34. Republicans do not cheat.

[yodermon]

35. Gawd! ** IS SOMEONE CATALOGING THESE**?? this is at least a dozen times over

the past 6-8 years.

Where's the thread that predicted this??

[Ganja Ninja]

36. Obama should revoke FOX's WH press credentials.

They are nothing but a propaganda ministry for the GOP and they should be treated like it.

[Gold Metal Flake]

37. Collect them all!

[mikelgb]

48. nice I was just going to ask if anybody had the whole set

should be collector cards

[Gold Metal Flake]

63. Three more

Lieberman after he lost the primary and formed his own party:


A reassignment of Heckuvajob Brownie:


A new party for Specter before he actually switched.


I wonder if there is a Larry Craig out there?

[babylonsister]

52. That's really funny. You have to laugh! nt

[corpseratemedia]

58. fantastic!! (i mean that you collected the screen shots)

yeah, uh..a "democrat" who vigorously fought against SC getting stimulus money

faux news viewers have to be the dumbest gd idiots on the planet

and really, the "obama" FCC needs to put fox out of business, what crooks

[annabanana]

62. What? No Larry Craig?

I'm sure someone has one somewhere....

[AsahinaKimi]

94. oh please send these to Keith Obermann ..

OR better yet, send it to The Daily Show!!

[cascadiance]

95. Some more...

More Faux News caption and other "editorializing"...

[cboy4]

122. Excellent job cascadiance

:thumbsup:

[BlancheSplanchnik]

152. I thought they luurrrv McCain?

Why were they banishing him to demhood?

Anyway, ...when PoxSpews gets what they deserve, I will have such a PARTY!

[lumberjack_jeff]

96. If you're a republican, you know you're fucked when fox does this. n/t

[Wednesdays]

99. You guys should caption all those pictures, too

Because context is everything...in nearly all of those instances, the pics show those officials in connection with something criminal or extremely embarrassing.

[anonymous171]

112. .

:rofl: I would laugh harder if I wasn't so pissed at them.

[mdmc]

141. well met

:toast:

[Laura PourMeADrink]

180. Well, if it is not intentional, they surely need to fire the person in

charge of the Ds and Rs, huh

[Blue_Tires]

183. the minute they called Ted Stevens a dem Fox should have had their license shredded

:puke:

[konnichi wa]

38. Aw shucks it's an honest error...the FAUX computer has a little glitch

the | and the \ are missing from their font.



:shrug:

[Vidar]

166. Probably networked through Diebold.

[sakabatou]

39. Yep. Every fucking time

they pull that stunt.

[bridgit]

40. Roger Ailes doesn't even want to own the monster he has created...

:spray:

[proud2BlibKansan]

41. Isn't this trick getting a little old?

[Gold Metal Flake]

45. Pukes never give up a dirty trick.

Republicans always lie, Republicans never stop lying.

[struggle4progress]

53. Inventing new tricks would require more creativity than they can muster

[Atman]

47. Remember, Fox viewers only watch Fox. They'll never hear anything different.

They'll see the (D), they'll NEVER hear "Republican" associated with this story, so they'll believe it was a Democrat. It's a very convenient little vacuum they have going on.

.

[lindisfarne]

66. And they're such idiots, they won't remember that the previous day the headline had been Republican

Gov of SC missing. May be hiking Appalachian Trail on Nude Hiking Day, the way Gawd intended.

[jimshoes]

138. The similarities to Orwell's 1984

are striking in how completely he saw the future of the totalitarian party run state, or in this case the TV network.

[ohheckyeah]

44. How many examples of them doing this?

I would love to see them.

[leftynyc]

101. Check post #37

They should lose their broadcasting license or be fined heavily each time they pull that shit. And their moronic viewers will eat it up every time.

[ohheckyeah]

118. Thanks. n/t

[BlancheSplanchnik]

148. I say fine them heavily

Revive the economy!

No way am I going to sit in another restaurant playing their FOX propaganda.

[Marr]

51. Well, they know their audience is a pack of idiots.

Any lurking freepers around here-- doesn't that annoy you? They assume you're that stupid.

[jaksavage]

54. Friends don't let

anybody watch Fuxnews

[ObamaKerryDem]

56. SO damn transparent! n/t

[Cha]

57. And, their audience is so fucking dumb that

they don't know the governor of SC is a fucking whore republicon.

[Hepburn]

59. Well, maybe at Faux Snooze, they just have not...

...learned their letters past "D"! :evilgrin:

[HillWilliam]

98. If they hadn't failed Sesame Street

they wouldn't be republicans in the first place!

[scheming daemons]

61. Someone on another network (Jon Stewart?) has to compile all these and report them...

...and the DNC should sue Fox.

Seriously.

[Dr Fate]

65. George bush and Dick Cheny will probably be "Democrats" before it's all said & done. n/t

n/t

[CrispyQ]

89. DUzy!

:rofl:

[lpbk2713]

67. They do it so consistently that it can't possibly be accidental.

Standard procedure for them.

[AlbertCat]

130. it can't possibly be accidental.

And if it were accidental....what a amateur outfit!

Calling them on it can only look bad for them. Morans!

[Bobbie Jo]

68. LOL....good grief.

:rofl:

[barbtries]

69. they are so pathetic

this is not photo shopped, right?

[OwnedByFerrets]

71. Typical of FauxNews

[Joey Liberal]

72. Nothing new from the Nazi Channel..... nt

[bullwinkle428]

73. It's just like Bartcop says - when a company makes a "mistake"

that benefits them in any way possible, expect them to keep making that "mistake" OVER & OVER & OVER AGAIN!!!

[butterfly77]

74. Yesterday, I believe I saw a D under the ..

lieutenant governors name when I believe he is a Repug..

[PSzymeczek]

80. He is.

He has a history of driving very fast, yelling at cops when he gets pulled over, and has crashed a plane (IIRC, he was drunk).

[K Gardner]

75. Unfreakinbelievable that they get away with this crap.

[spiritual_gunfighter]

77. I think it is pretty funny at this point n/t

[TexasObserver]

78. Fox News puts the (D) by the name of every GOPer in trouble.

Vitter. CHECK.

Craig. CHECK.

Sanford. CHECK.

[anneboleyn]

178. This is unbelievable -- where can we send this info to get the story out there??

[The Hope Mobile]

79. So desperately transparent!!!!!!!!! nt

[B Calm]

82. Hope Keith Olbermann caught this. . .

[The Wizard]

83. Fox Propaganda and Comedy Network

They have to have the world's dumbest audience.
They think the word gullible isn't in the dictionary.

[mnhtnbb]

85. It is hilarious. This is too stupid or too deliberate--maybe both?

:rofl:

[The Wielding Truth]

176. It's too obvious to be not intentional. They are killing our country.

[tavalon]

91. Actually, they KNOW gullible is in the dictionary

They have only to look at their viewers.

[sub.theory]

84. Unbelievable....

Yep, that's not the first time that Faux has "accidentally" made that very mistake when yet another cheating, philandering Republican has their mea culpa moment. Faux really is the Joseph Goebbels of American news networks.

There's enough real evidence here on this page to bring a suit to court, IMO.

This is beyond any reasonable doubt----Any jury would convict on this.


Seeing it all together on one page is just jaw-dropping, even to me.

Wow.

the GOpers are big time stinkers. Are their viewers that uneducated in all things political or is Fox just assuming they are?

144. Honestly, the only people who consider that a real news

channel, consider Rush Limbaugh a real brain trust. Seriously. Most Americans scoff at "Fox News", it's an oxymoron. Their lack of professionalism, such as what's on display here, is indicative of how they view the world and their audience. This is a joke to them. I bet the news "director" was laughing his/her off today as this "error" was transmitted.

172. fox news equals

basiji. each of those headlines is the moral equivalent of an axe through a protestor's chest, an apartment door kicked down in the night. it's up to us humans to coral them and give them something useful and exhausting to do where they can't harm society, especially our defenseless elderly, whom they are filling with their hate and fear propaganda in what should be the golden years of their lives.

it's unconscionable that they do it and that we stand for it at all. Free speech is fine, but they have no right to the public airwaves with that crap. let them preach on street corners.

well, it's certainly true they're helping destroy the republican party completely,and hopefully a true Green party will rise to the left of the dems in the power vacuum that follows, as happened in New Zealand.

So keep it up, hundred monkeys on the fox headline staff! You're saving the world in your unintentionally funny way!

no. basiji. better armed, richer, more dangerous to all that is good in the world.

With libel and malice for all.

185. FOX will be silenced when the American people show up with pitchforks and torches.

Until then they will continue to be able to deceive the public. Until Americans launch a boycott of their sponsors they will enjoy spreading their lies because we don't have the foritude to actually do anything other than complain.

The silver lining is that the average age of their audience is something like 65, and older. Attrition should take care of Fox over time.

[CruisePlanner]

192. Spread the word to FOX viewers

Of course this is no accident. We all know it. We're preaching to the choir.

Our job should be to repeatedly point it out to Fox viewers. It's got to be a personal quest... I doubt their audience is also watching Keith O. or John Stewart or perusing DU. I've been on a 8 year campaign to inform anyone I see tuned into a Fox station that it is merely a propaganda station (depending on their age use Cold War or WWII for appropriate references). It does work sometimes... I've seen some of the people finally change the channel...it takes multiple reminders to them and each one of these on-screen lies helps the cause. People are not as stupid as Fox may think. The first reaction is always.."Oh it's just a typo" but when you refer back to all the other times it has happened even their viewers start to "get it". So...use every one of these "errors" as a chance to turn a Fox viewer away from the dark side.

I would be interested to know...has anyone ever done a comparison of the number of errors committed by the other cable news stations? I don't recall ever seeing this many "typos" on CNN or MSNBC but it wouldn't hurt to know for sure.

Subject: Fox news must be forced to stop deliberately lying to the American public

It's past time that the FCC establish a firm rule requiring news
organizations to report accurately and fairly. The FCC must establish a
legal penalty for news organizations which violate this requirement.

Fox news has a cute habit of identifying Republican's who are involved
in scandals as being members of the other party. IE Democrats. This is
an intentional scheme, and should not be tolerated. Fox has claimed in
court cases that there is no requirement for it to be truthful. That
must change!

Part of the Job of the FCC is to protect the citizens of this nation
from things of this nature. It's past time that the FCC does its job and
puts an end to political organizations being dressed up in the news's
clothing.

If nothing else require them to identify then they are being truthful
and when they are not. I would also be in support of the fairness
doctrine being returned and the provisions requiring that news
organizations provide equal time.

Don't worry about truth, just repeat what you want people to believe, until they believe it.
