Boy you leftists really are reaching and grasping for anything to blast fox for aren't you. I'm embarrassed for you and the site that even thought it was worth posting that sort of tinfoil nonsense.

You're really going to defend a "news" agency who has such a bias that they, at best and given the benefit of the doubt, by mistake read into a poll the exact opposite of what it clearly states? Really?

YAFT (Fox) creative video editing to lie

Feb 28, the O'Reilly show...
Protesters in Madison are getting rowdy! They even showed a clip of the rowdy protesters!

Question: When the hell did they start planting palm trees in Wisconsin? Huh? Yeah, look closely at the video. Apparently there was no footage of anyone being rowdy in Madison, so they spliced in footage from a protest in California over some other issue.

"Fair and balanced, you decide." Bullshit.

Sorry it's a facebook video link; if someone finds the clip on youtube or elsewhere, please post.

Congrats OP

You didn't make it YAFNT

There is no "News", it is strictly a propaganda and rhetoric station.

Unfortunately a lot of dumb Americans watch it and get brainwashed :(

It's not a "news" agency fella.

100% propaganda, rhetoric and entertainment as ruled by the United States Supreme Court.

When I first saw that video I thought it was kind of a cheeky joke on the teabagging tools that watch fox. They're trying to claim that people are getting paid to go there and protest. Quoting PT Barnum, "Nobody ever went broke betting on the stupidity of the american public." It wasn't labor unions that torpedoed the global economy and left everyone else with the bill. When you hear discussions about defending "freedom" or "liberty" on Faux News, what they are talking about is keeping the gap between the haves and the have nots as wide as possible.

You don't need to reach very far to blast Faux, its one of the purest sources of bullshit available today.

Fox needs to get it's act together. In this day and age of computers and CGI they should be able to do much better then that.
Fox News doesn't have the money for that. You liberals will swallow whatever fits your world view, so ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN/MSNBC news expenses are relatively low.

Us conservatives on the other hand require news that fits our world view AND that is delivered by a major babe. Since our society values major babes highly, they earn more. Thus Fox News cannot afford CGI.

Hope this clears things up. I now return you to your regularly scheduled circle je- um, discussion. Circle of discussion.

With all the upright moral and political superiority Faux viewers constantly display, it's fascinating that they can't bring themselves to expect even just a little integrity from Faux, whilst at the same time demanding it from a smaller, less relevant competitor.

The tired, played out "oh yeah well what about them!" response would actually mean something if Faux and it's butthurt supporters actually had a foot to stand on.

Still, there's some amusement to be had watching them get frothy over Faux's bullshit being caught. It's like someone has been bad mouthing WWE over not being a real sport, and the response is "Oh yeah, well them Eurotrash boys playing soccer fake being hurt all the time!"

lol, possums right about the circle jerk, he's just got the location wrong...
