May we all be as quick to admit our mistakes publicly as Rachel Maddow. And may we all make as few mistakes as Rachel Maddow.

If an "invasion of North Africa to protect American interests" was SATIRE then American bombing of Libya to help topple the regime there to, in part, protect American interests must be LIFE IMITATING ART!

Note: America's biggest trading partner and home of most US foreign investment is the EU. And EU needs Libyan oil and gas to avoid becoming too dependent on Russia...

What do you expect from this lady - actual research.

She believed it because she wanted to. This channel is a joke. But it's funny!

@henshinman the competitors didn't fall for the same sattire they are presenting similar news as if it were fact. Her apology was still valid, she wasn't blaming fox for the mistake. She just sayed its hard to tell the difference between satire and what fox calls news.

@scottrex33 but that does not give her the right to slam a competitor for doing the same thing only not admitting to it 

[scottrex33]

She knows what she was doing. She is just admitting it because she got called out. She dose things like this all the time.
