Lone Gunman in Tiananmen Square?

Sometimes the simple mistakes are more interesting than the pre-planned spin on Fox News as it was today when I noticed a mistake Fox News anchor Jane Skinner made, presumably misreading the teleprompter, when she reported the story on the crackdowns in China leading up to the 20th anniversary of the June 4, 1989 protests in Tiananmen Square that I show in this video.

The short clip of Fox News I use in my video comes from the broadcast of the program "Happening Now" shown on June 3, 2009.

You can read Sigmund Freud's book "Psychopathology of Everday Life" that I mention in this video in full online at http://psychclassics.yorku.ca/Freud/Psycho/

My previous video titled "Obama Teleprompter Obsession" to which I refer in this video is available on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz0hjLbgVIU

The dozens and dozens of videos documenting ideological bias on Fox News to which I refer in this video are available on my Fox News Bias playlist on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D

And, finally, you can find a lot more in depth information from the New York Times about the 20th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square protests in China at http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/31/opinion/31tiananmen.html

FOX News: turning regular civilians into terrorists since 2001 and defending rogue U.S governments since... forever

[TheScaryRed]

my goodness... I feel sick; It doesn't matter if this was deliberate, but this clips makes evident the psycho-pathological disorder they suffer from. We're in for a struggle, folks.

@james245lol how were they liberals? all of their efforts were to limit government and give as many of those powers to the people. how come liberals demonize the 2nd amendment?

@David12King true contemporary liberals are not the same as classical liberals.

Fox is the Feed Our Xenophobia Network.

@james245lol Free market libertarians, actually. The most influential ones were influenced by the likes of John Locke and Adam Smith.

You are making an assumption that this was a misread teleprompter. Perhaps it wasn't? You then tangent onto Obama's teleprompter mistakes, which then changes the core of your argument from "Fox News makes teleprompter mistakes" (which in this case is entirely arguable) to "Fox News should be more tolerant of Obama's mistakes".

Then you completely turn your argument around! Suddenly not only did Fox News not make a mistake, they *intended* to make the "Lone Gunman" a villain. Leap to conclusion?

@DynastyLang Ratings refer simply to quantity not quality!
