Sometimes I just can't believe the stuff that I see.

Then I remember that it's fox...

[WCGreen]

1. Oh is that pathetic or what.....

All you whites women's best bewares...

There's black man gonna steal you woman.....

[Inkyfuzzbottom]

2. OH MY

fucking god! Could they be any more brazen? So fair and balanced.

[Botany]

3. Roger Ailes needs to be horse whipped

Just drop 5 seconds of Obama footage into a story that had nothing to do with Obama ........

Class of rat's ass.

[Kutjara]

4. Oh gee, they made another mistake.

Just a technical glitch, nothing to see here. Didn't mean anything by it.

That fucking channel makes me sick.

[Hav]

5. .

Yeah, all these mistakes just always happen and are to the disadvantage of Obama :eyes:.
Btw, nice telling smirk from that speaker...

[tjwash]

7. Yeah, just like the fucking diebold voting machines...

...make "mistakes" that somehow always gave the guy with the "R" next to his name the extra votes.

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

19. One of the older lies told...

http://dneiwert.blogspot.com/2006/12/eliminationism-in-america-vi.html

Used to justify all sorts of nasty things.

[KansDem]

44. Don't forget how FOX and the AP "mistakenly" IDed Hastert and Foley as "D"

...when the page scandal broke just before the election.



BradBlog

(Although Hastert isn't mentioned here, I saw that "mistake" myself)

[no_hypocrisy]

6. Well, THAT wasn't very subliminal, was it? n/t

[citygal]

8. the fact that they are stooping this low this early tells me

that they are very afraid of Obama. They do not have one decent candidate right now that could match his optimism or like-ability factor.

[Mojambo]

14. It makes me a little concerned about what lengths the rightwing will go to to stop Obama.

There is a level beyond smears that produces awfully dark results.

Just ask a Kennedy (or a King.)

[uberllama42]

43. RFK was the one who wiretapped the Kings' phone

The Kennedys and the Kings were not necessarily friends. It's disappointing how often Democrats stoop to unconscionable tactics. If you ask me, Obama has to worry about Hillary's people as much as anybody from the GOP smear machine.

[Mr_Jefferson_24]

9. Hasn't Faux established something of a...

...pattern of this kind of subliminal attack with respect to Obama? Didn't they call him Osama or refer to Osama as Obama and use his picture to connect him with Middle Eastern terrists? How many times will they attempt to pass this sort of thing as an honest mistake? And at what point does it become actionable character assassination?

[Bolo Boffin]

10. They did it and CNN did it too.

This is a local channel, though. Be careful not to blow something too much out of proportion, because publicizing the "mistake" propagates the mistake.

Still, somebody at that station should answer for that mistake.

[colorado_ufo]

11. Shameless and deliberate.

[MnFats]

12. that came from FOX 9, KMSP Minneapolis St. Paul

they're comical when not infuriating...

(Lake Nokomis is the giveaway.)

[Ignacio Upton]

13. This will be about as effective as their "Mark Foley (D-FL)" stunt

n/t.

[David Zephyr]

15. I hope that Jon Stewart, Keith O & David Letterman see this.

Yes.

[gratefultobelib]

16. What the....?? That is so blatant and disgusting.

[TexasLawyer]

17. WHOA!!!

That was random!

[sam sarrha]

18. hope he sues their F'n ASS's OFF

[durrrty libby]

20. These thugs are losers

[ultraist]

21. uggh..

That is really sickening. I'm not an Obama supporter but that move by Fox is outrageous. How anyone could work for that corp is beyond me. They are shameless.

[bigdarryl]

22. There tatics won't work as they didn't in the 06 elections the american..

people are sick and tired of this bullshit.

[CatholicEdHead]

23. KSMP, Fox 9 Twin Cities, no suprise here

It is a complete joke, an hour every night with absolutely nothing.

[PreacherCasey]

24. File this under: too absurd to be true yet true none-the-less.

Hopefully someone has been keeping a count of Fox's "mistakes". I can remember more than a handful right off the top of my head.

[Ishoutandscream2]

25. It may be 2 years until the election

but it's never too early to start swiftboating.

[benny05]

26. Post needs to redone

There is nothing about Obama and a sex offender who may have lived in Chicago in that clip.

Obama deserves better than this balderdash thread unless you can prove otherwise.

[ultraist]

27. Watch it again

Actually there is. They show images of Obama and supporters while discussing the molestor. It's somewhat subliminal and really inappropriate.

[tjwash]

28. Watch the whole clip

I'm sure even someone with a limited attention span can make it through the 8 seconds that it takes to see what fox is doing in the clip.

[Patchuli]

29. I hope we have all

emailed those folks...?

[mzmolly]

30. Disgusting.

:puke:

[bridgit]

31. predictable, so long as g.w. bush's WH enables such behavior it will be thus...

so expect more of the same

[Quantess]

32. WHAT THE F***?!

No mention of Obama. They just flashed an image of him in an apparently completely unrelated story about some random sex offender.

Subliminal.

[specimenfred1984]

33. Faux = whores & traitors

If an individual supported as many crimes as they do, that person would be in jail for life: in a democracy that is. This is a fascist country.

[nashville_brook]

34. can't believe this hasn't received more votes!

i'm NOT an Obama-mama (yet), but regardless of who you are *wishing* will get the nod, this clip should outrage.

[danimich1]

35. Unbelievable.

They just keep getting lower and lower. Can anything be done about this?

[Lerkfish]

36. actually, its impossible for Fox to stoop since they are already lower than

whale dung. Anything they do is aspiring to be whale dung.

[techno-nubian]

37. That was real cheap.....

[progressoid]

38. excuse me...it's Barack OSAMA.

[brg5001]

39. First, he's a terrorist because his middle name is Hussein. Now this.

This WILL be on Countdown tonight, no doubt. Unfortunately, much of America will be blissfully tuned into American Idol's new season. Wow.

[TheDonkey]

40. WTF!!! The government should pull these guys air rights for filth like that

worse than any nipple slip.

[pdrichards114]

41. Fox News!!! Count on us to lower the bar of decency every newscast.

[otherlander]

42. Those fucking bastards!

Let's hope they die soon.

[Laurab]

45. I had to watch it twice just to believe what I was seeing

even knowing what Fox is, it might be a new low.

[ripple]

46. Holy shit

We really need to start cataloguing these Obama hits. They are becoming damned frequent, and not just from FOX. I'm thinking a documentary might be in order- and not just ANY documentary. One that can be watched in local theatres, rather than purchased exclusively online by people like us who see through it already. MICHAEL MOORE, ARE YOU BUSY?

[corvusblog]

47. Consider the source.......
