You liberals really have it in for Fox don't you.

The article was based off of an AP story so I think it might be worth reading.

Considering there have been numerous cases where Fox has knowingly asked their reporters to lie and fires those who don't.... Yeah I'd say I have a problem with Fox.

And Fox News "bases" all there stories on something, but that's like saying the Neverending story is "based" off real life. It's technically true because a portion of it is true.

All of the major news outlets are biased.

Very true because all news stations are trying for ratings, but on the scale it goes something like this:


No bias<-------------------------------------------------> Where's the truth

Fox News leaves that "where's the truth" line in the dust.

I could say the same about CNN, its a point of view. I'm not saying I support either, because I don't. The truth is somewhere in the middle.

They just wanted to say "naked" while not understanding anything about the meaning in context.

The nakedness of a black hole has absolutely nothing to to with the amount of gas around it, but everything to do with the event horizon.

Do any of you believe that black holes are portals to another realms? I do not. I believe anything that enters a BH is crushed into nothingness.

There is a difference between 'bias' in the sense of putting a spin on things that you like or don't like but still reporting them vs. making [censored] up to suit your political agenda. Fox does indeed literally lie to promote their chosen cause -- the Republican party. Most recent slimy tactics:

1) Before the 2006 elections they sneakily tried to make people think that Foley was a Democrat, and never acknowledged their subterfuge even when caught and called out.

http://www.bradblog.com/?p=3570
"INCREDIBLE! FOX 'NEWS' LABELS FOLEY AS DEM DURING O'REILLY FACTOR!"

http://wonkette.com/politics/pagefuc...res-205075.php
Desperate Times, Desperate Measures

2) Once the election was lost they desperately tried to show that the 'terrorists' were celebrating over the Democratic victory -- so desperate that a senior VP in the news division sent out a memo explicitly calling for his reporters to find such celebrations or anything that could be interpreted as such. And it was leaked.

Fox News memo: Look out for jihadis celebrating Democrats’ win

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bob-ge...w_b_34251.html
Fox News: They Distort, We Deride

3) They simply made up a story that Obama had attended a radical Islamic school when he lived as a child in Indonesia. Other news agencies simply investigated -- sent someone to see the school he attended. It was an ordinary secular state-run school. No acknowledgement of this 'mistake' either. Just silence after exposure.

http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/01/22/obama.madrassa/
CNN debunks false report about Obama

4) Oh, except that they then claimed that the story about Obama had come from Hilary Clinton's campaign staff. Blatantly trying to stir up strife within the Democratic party.

http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/01/22/obama.madrassa/
CNN debunks false report about Obama
(Yes, same story debunks both claims)

And you still want to claim that Faux News is a news organization???
