Fox News Creates Obama Contradiction That Isn't There?

A lot of people complained about the bias at last week's ABC debate between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton but it was the same bias you can find at all the major networks, a bias towards controversy, sensationalism, superficiality, and corporatism. Fox News, in contrast, has all those same biases as the other networks, but has, in addition, a clear ideological bias I've documented in dozens of YouTube videos in which Fox distorts the facts to help the right or hurt the left. Fox provided a good example of such bias in its coverage of last week's ABC debate when Fox deliberately misinterpreted an ambiguity in something Obama said, quoted it out of context, and created a contradiction that wasn't there, as I show in this video.

You can find the rest of the April 16, 2008, ABC Democratic debate from which I took a clip for this video on the ABC website at: http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=4669713

You can find more of Obama's April 17, 2008, statement about the debate from which I took a clip for this video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlR9DNfqGD4

And, you can find DOZENS of more examples of Fox News bias on my Fox News bias playlist on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D

The contradiction is CLEARLY between the terms "Fox" ..... & the terms "news". Some major confusion of terms.lol

@STNKbone  agreed! PBS shows are so factual and indepth about each issue...sadly, but honestly, its a breath of fresh air... its not PBS'' fault that facts are usually liberal, like colbert said :P

@macdogq

...Because Fox news edits all of their footage to look as bad as possible for anyone who disagrees with them?

This isn't reporting; it's political advertising.

I felt that Obama had not handled the Jeramiah Wright issue very well.  What I would have said when Stephanopoulos asked that question is, "I am saved by the blood of Jesus Christ and I cannot disown that action and the man (Wright) who led me to Christ." That would have told the truth, addressed the lie that he is a muslim and distance him from Wright on the non-Christian statements by Wright.

Irony of it all is the Christians that say "God is angry with us" vs Wright "America can go to hell". When in fact when God is angry he sends you to hell.
