Fox News Attacks Google As Anti-Church?

150+ Fox News Bias videos at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D

When "Fox and Friends" spun a story that Newsbusters had already spun from an article in Christianity Today on Google's exclusion of religious, political, and other possibly controversial groups from discounts under its Google Apps non-profit program, the Fox News anchors made 3 factual errors in under a minute to support a false claim that Google's non-profit restrictions exclusively target religion and churches, as I show in this video.

The clips I use of Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, and Brian Kilmeade come from a segment of Fox News' August 26, 2011, broadcast of "Fox and Friends" (which I have not found available online)

The image I use of the Google search for "thou shalt not give discounts to churches" comes from the page at http://bit.ly/nNJiPf

The images I use of the Newsbusters article titled "Google Won't Give Churches Same Break It Gives Other Non-Profits" come from the page at http://bit.ly/n2uFlI

The images I use of the Christianity Today article titled "Google Cuts Churches Out Of Nonprofit Program" come from the page at http://bit.ly/qSUaPi

The image I use of restrictions under Google's Non-Profit program comes from the page at http://bit.ly/oJfTVY

FOXNEWS:

Pushing the envelop of media brilliance by

proving two really stupid men can make one dumb blonde look smart!

If Google actually was anti-church, that would only make me like them more. I mean, what's so all-fired great about churches anyway? They already get tax breaks out the wazoo, and they already have people endlessly donating to them. These monuments to the imaginary have had it too easy for too long. If Google said its intention was to wipe religion from the face of the earth, I would become Google fan #1 overnight.

Bad journalism !!

[doombybbr]

the church doesn't even need one pence of what it recieves...... and doesn't deserve it because they do almost nothing productive with it.

Wow

Fox News hate Google because they won't "adjust" their search results to appease Santorum. Oh, and also their search results obviously have a liberal bias since not everything you search for leads to information on FoxNews.com.

@getxdope Why not watch the video again. You seem to have missed everything they got wrong & twisted to make it sound like Google is only excluding churches. Saying that all news stations are biased & Fox News is just one of them is like saying that all of us are sinners. Just some of us happen to be serial killers.

@MrDcukduck You think you're smart and yet aren't. They're not talking about personal Gmail accounts. They're talking about using Gmail for your organization's email service. If you run a business or a non-profit you can get their business package which allows you to use Gmail with your own domain. Businesses have to pay for it, but it's free for non-profits except the ones mentioned here.

Fox News is my number one source for hilariously WRONG information.

[getxdope]

They never once said that google was specifically targeting churches. They said google excluded churches. FACT. They never said they couldn't though. It was a talking point. Get off Fox News for being biased when all news stations are biased. Just because they have an opinion doesn't make them racist, or idiots or anything

It's Google's money. I'm sure they can decide on how best to manage their own business. Fox is like a lame horse.
