Rupert Murdoch should be proud of the fair and balanced “news” product that Roger Ailes, his henchman has created in America’s most humorous and ludicrous channel – Fox News. All this in exchange for his “measly” salary of ~$24 million according to Business Week.

This is some good stuff….nice to see the folks at Fox News are really concerned about the “truthiness” of their reporting.
Thanks Zach. It is interesting material.
According to the SFGate (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/09/16/MNFS19NG5L.DTL) ACORN head Bertha Lewis has said that ACORN will be “taking legal action against Fox News and their co-conspirators” (O’Keefe and Giles, the two purported documentarians).
Okay…this is the first time I watched this video…but it seems to me you are missing the point (and the video) about the real corruption in ACORN. Using this as some sort of red herring isn’t right. There are serious/criminal issue involving ACORN that our taxpayer dollars are paying for and that should upset everyone…on both sides. How about we forget this nonsense and “report” the real story??
Anon, anything to expose Fox to the world is the right thing to do.
By the way, O’Reilly, Hannity, and Beck are all commentators, not journalists. There is a clear difference. Some people apparently cannot seem to make that distinction.
Good point, but they do call the station Fox NEWS, they claim to be fair and balanced and they have a following that believes everything these nuts say.
Do you plan on posting the other ACORN videos that have made the news lately??
Nope, you can go to Fox News to see them.
It’s not just Fox News that is reporting on ACORN’s corruption…although they were the first ones to report on it. I guess the only stories that matter are the ones Fox News gets wrong…because it’s more important to discredit Fox News than it is to expose the actual corruption in ACORN.
Yeah, journalists have standards, while clearly these jokers don’t.
PEW Research called Fox News the most unbiased in election cover of 2008. (Google it for yourself) I find the names you have for Fox News amusing because you folks get all upset that they’re don’t have their lip firmly planted on Obama’s rear. Charlie Gibson went on a radio show and claimed he heard nothing of the ACORN scandal even after the Senate voted to defund ACORN and the Census Bureau cut it’s ties with them on the 10 census. It would seem to me the only thing fixed hear is the rest of the MSM for not reporting news….
Fair and balanced means you have to report both the good and bad about Obama. Nobody else seems to have caught on to that but then again it wouldn’t be what you wanted to hear anyway.
BTW…. Cameron’s right about Beck’s role at Fox but I suppose you’ve never watched Olbermann or Matthews….. Right?
To silent E
Name ONE positive story on Fox about the Obama Administration …
Name one positive thing Obama has done……
He nominated Sonia Sotomayor.
He’s pushing for health care reform which is needed.
It just doesn’t matter what’s in the box, just as long is the box says “health care reform,” right?
He’s working to repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”
“It just doesn’t matter what’s in the box, just as long is the box says “health care reform,” right?”
Wrong.
