Fox News Blatent Distortion of News on Mark Foley.

These are not one, but two news clips of Fox New Channel labling former Rep. Mark Foley as a Democrat. No excuses for this one. This is about as blatent as it gets.

Who cares? It was a mistake. And I love all the haters of Fox News. Fox is more traditional and conservative AND THEY'RE THE ONLY NETWORK THAT IS. If it weren't for Fox, every media outlet would be liberal. Would that be fair and balanced?

If FOX were a tradional conservative network, I wouldn't be bothered by them.

But FOX is a neo-conservative network, which is a movement that is pretty Anti-American in most regards.

Absolutley Amazing... I can't beleive they thought they could get away with that

Know what the best part was? They censored the rebroadcasting of it, down the memory hole.

Typical Fox Viewer is fucking retard. They wouldn't care if it was manipulated anyhow.

Could we exchange "fair and balanced" for just facts?

Why does it have a "D" they should put "R" because he is a Republican

[KenElizabeth1824]

O so they can LIE but as long as their conservative...good to know

Once is a mistake.

Twice is suspicious.

But they did it THREE times (only two shown here, but it was three overall).

And never ONCE apologized for it. Any — and I do mean *ANY* — REPUTABLE news organization, if shown to have made a mistake of any knid that causes confusion or conveys an untruth, would have a subsequent "erratum" in a subsequent episode or issue.

E.g. "Earlier we reported that Mark Foley was a Democrat. He is a Republican. Fox News apologizes for the error."

HA HA good one!

you have obviously missed the point

I love how they correct their mistakes-they ignore them,deny they made a goof,edit their transcrips after the fact,etc.Never have they attempted to correct or apologize for a 'mistake',which leads to the belief it was intentional.
