Fox News: unfair, unbalanced, no outrights lies...

[shira]

Then why is it the most watched news network? Not just high viewership, it's the most watched news network there is and kills all the others.

Your position is that what's the most popular is the highest quality?

Beyonce > Beethoven???

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince > Citizen Kane?

The Lost Symbol > Lolita?

MSNBC is highly biased and would beat on Bush unrelentingly. Fox News is highly biased and beats on Obama unrelentingly. The fact that you see a significant difference is probably more of an indication of your personal bias than anything...no?

There's a difference between bias in reporting and DECEPTIVE reporting.

Dude, Dan Rather!

Fox News is vindicated once again!!!!

Hannity thanked Stewart for watching and pointing out the error. He also appologized - it was not done on purpose. This is not an issue.

1 apology down, a few thousand more to go, and Fox'll be living up to it's motto.

and no, it's not like the left's media is any better. I was watching Maddow last night and laughing about how badly the Spupak amendment was being distorted.

Fox News caused the Iraq and Afghanistan wars?

Lies were used to justify and sell the war, you ass. And even after it came out that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and Republicans continued to spout lies about Iraq being involved in 9/11 and we are safer because of the invasion, very few in the media called them on it. What good is freedom of the press if all they do is parrot back lies to us?

Revisionist history seems to have struck you. Please read the 27 bullet points in the request for use of force that most all of congress approved. Just go read it. It's quick.

Just google "Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002"

Revisionist history? Some of us were watching and paying attention when it happened. You are once again FOS.

So please to be to point out the authorization for use of force against Iraq and how much of it was related to 9/11. (grammar fuck up intentional).

You can't. We removed a significant source of terrorism and funding. If you were paying attention during those years you'd also remember the near daily suicide bombing attacks around the world.

Today? Not so much. Cut off the head of the snake.

So you admit the entire media failed in this regard, yet you choose to single out Fox News? Why is that? Nevermind.. I know.

I guess we know why Obama is seemingly unable to make a decision on troop levels in Afghanistan and congress is unable to pass Healthcare reform while thousands are dying in the streets.. surely their time is being taken up by this critical national security crisis.

I think maybe you need to slow down a bit, wait for Hannity's excuses, then just repeat them ad infinitum as if they were your own.

I give it a day

Hannity thanked Stewart for watching and pointing out the error. He also appologized - it was not done on purpose. This is not an issue.

I admitted nothing of the kind. BTW...didn't Hannity admit the mistake and apologize?

I love how when a conservative makes a mistake, it was on purpose but when a liberal makes a mistake they "misspoke".

At least Hannity has the balls to admit the mistake on national TV unlike some liberals who will remain nameless.....

Oh so easy and utterly predictable....

"...Whereas members of al Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq...

Whereas Iraq continues to aid and harbor other international terrorist organizations, including organizations that threaten the lives and safety of United States citizens...

Whereas the United States is determined to prosecute the war on terrorism and Iraq's ongoing support for international terrorist groups combined with its development of weapons of mass destruction in direct violation of its obligations under the 1991 cease-fire and other United Nations Security Council resolutions make clear that it is in the national security interests of the United States and in furtherance of the war on terrorism that all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions be enforced, including through the use of force if necessary;

Whereas Congress has taken steps to pursue vigorously the war on terrorism through the provision of authorities and funding requested by the President to take the necessary actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such persons or organizations;

Whereas the President and Congress are determined to continue to take all appropriate actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such persons or organizations;"

Are we reading the same resolution? The one I read accused Iraq of being a nation that harbored and aided al Qaida and other international organization and was developing WMDs for them. How'd that search for WMDs turn out?

 

[DealMonkey]

Just like PJabber, Hannity is so desperate to prove that the teabagging jackasses are more numerous than they really are, that he'd outright lie about the attendance to do so. Go figure.

Not the time nor place to debate this. At least you have found (and hopefully read) and cherry picked the few points, leaving out all others, to make it fit your leftist world view. Well done Obama, well done Obama.

Fuck you Barrack Hussein Obama. FUBHO.

I never said the entire media didn't fail. In fact, they continue to fail for the most part today also. Instead of investigating and reporting what is truth and what isn't they take the easy way out--someone say something, they just parrot it back on air.

Faux is singled out because they take it one step further and regularly "mis-spoke" or "mis-label". Really? I can understand being right leaning and have no problem if all Faux reported on was dirt for the left and good stuff for the right as long as all of it is true; but is there so little to report that they have to make stuff up? This applies doubly to their commentators.

Agree...but Hannity is a partisan talking head, not a reporter. Now...Dan Rather was a reporter. BIG difference IMO.
