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.

I ditched "'Scientific' American" decades ago, when they became a
mouthpiece for the Church of Warmingism.

Cheers!
