40. Revenge from the people in the footage department?
Maybe they got sick of being scapegoats and decided to take revenge.

Edited on Thu Nov-19-09 02:39 PM by doc03
That's not the Going Rouge book cover? Looks like it to me.

oh the spelling: How did they get the wrong cover? Was this some Democrat Faux employee's joke on them or what?

10. I think in the space of a few weeks, Faux has surpassed Dan Rather's "inaccuracies" record
which forced him to resign from CBS ...

The documents may have been forged, but the former secretary who appeared on "60 Minutes II" confirmed that the facts were true. :-(

And you'll remember what Dan Rather said in his interview with Greg Palast, that any journalist who reported on certain stories in this country would be "necklaced..." x(

19. these are the ones which they actually are admitting to ...
Yes, I know they've been doing plenty of inaccuracies over the years ...

but I mean, they've had, in the past few weeks, several instances of them putting up bogus stuff ... they took the cumulative record of Dan Rather and forced CBS (not that Redstone was that supportive of someone critical of Bush to begin with) to pressure Rather out.

Faux in just a few weeks, surpasses Rather's record, and yet they're "a news organization" ...

Maybe it's the end of some interns' contracts at Fox, and pranks are being played. Could very well be.

17. Not a mistake
Edited on Thu Nov-19-09 03:06 PM by abelenkpe
C'mon anyone here done any editing? Or worked with a computer? Every file has a date on it. There is no f-ing way that this or the last 'mistake' was a mistake. It was intentional. A complete and blatant lie. Anyone saying it is a mistake is also liar.

Fox News. Faux News. Channel of liars.

edited to add:

but still entertaining.

27. Intentional. They're trying to minimize their other "mistakes"
i.e. showing misleading footage, by showing the wrong cover. Once again they understand that their followers will forgive them for any "error" and remain completely unaware of how they're being manipulated, because they're dumbshits.

the kind that uptight repugs think will get you in truoble for having the spinning ball confirming that 43rd Bush will always have an asterisk as much as steroids will.

42. This is no mistake, it's intentional, Faux News hates Palin
This is no mistake. Faux News wants a GOP candidate who will be on the side of big business and billionaires, and Palin is not dependable enough in that sense. She's in it for herself and her family and also to establish a theocracy in America, but she's not especially a tool for big business/billionaires like Rupert.

So I think what we will see is FAUX news consistently trying to "fact check" Palin and trying to tear her down to their audience, unless Rupert et. al. become convinced they can use her reliably. How that is going to play out with Glenn Beck, remains to be seen-he seems like a Palin fan to me.

45. I don't think this was an accident-
I think this may Fox's "fair and balanced" underhanded way of dealing with having been busted a couple of times recently on their file footage "mistakes" The first couple of times they made Republican events appear better attended than they were, and now they look disingenuous. This time, the mistake (which they happen to catch during the broadcast) has the wrong book cover- a book which mocks Palin. Notice, the picture is very professionally set up: Why would Fox even have this picture? This way they make it look to their audience like they have a few idiots down in the footage department, and not like they are purposely misleading people.

46. Even if that is the case...
....and several posters - including yourself - have made compelling arguments that it could well be... this incident has done wonders for The Nation's book exposure, and for free. I wonder how their sales are doing now.
