My email to Newsmax and their response

[AlCzervik]

ok, i emailed them because they are reporting Carl Fords donation to democrats, what they leave out is how much he gave to the gop.


carl Ford's donations, you people need to look before you report, get some fact checkers because you print half of the story. Here is a link for all his donations and he gave plenty to Bush and the GOP. http://www.newsmeat.com/fec/bystate_detail.php?st=MD&last=ford&first=carl


Ok, here is the response i got, i couldn't believe this guy admitted how shoddy their reporting is.

I think you're missing the point ... our aim is exactly TO report half the story in this case- the other half you haven't heard.
 
We want to refute those who are already screaming about him giving to the GOP, which they've documented.
 
They left out the Dem donations, so we brought them up.
 
But, in any case, thanks for reading ... we love the comments!

7. How can you manage to get through an entire article on that site?

I vomit about 3 lines in, usually. I think my web browser even gets sick by it because I have trouble bringing it up half the time.

8. to be honest i only scanned it, their font is friggin huge

so it only took about a minute to go through it and look for certain buzzwords. I actually found the article at fr and than went newsmax.

9. I see... smart move. Just keep a trash can nearby if you wade into the

site for too long. And tie a rope around you so we can wank you out if we need ala Poltergeist.
