Thanks to the Daily show another fast one attempted by Fox News has been
busted. Michelle Bachman, a representative from Minnesota, tried to get
people to come to Washington to pressure congressmen not to vote for
health care reform. On Fox News they showed shots of the crowd, and in
the attempt to make it look much bigger than it really was, they spliced
in pictures from another crowd on another day that was much larger. It
was clear deception intended to make Bachman's turn out look much larger
than it really was. Unfortunately for them John Stewart noticed the
actual crowd scene was not the one that happened several months ago.
Trees and the weather were different. So once again more proof that Fox
News has a conservative agenda it's aggressively pushing has come to
light. Fox News...Busted! Quit calling it news.

So you're saying Fox is no more trustworthy than the other networks?

Is this news to you?

Do you look at ABC, NBC And CBS as critically as you do Fox?

Actually, there was a study, published in the 31 September 2008 issue
of Scientific American, which showed that between 25 - 50% of the
American public were misinformed regarding current events and that
those who got their information from Fox News were far and away the
most poorly informed.
