And the fact is that Fox news is misleading and missinforming their viewers, and that the level of this mininformation has been measured and documented. It is asounding the number of Fox viewers who believed that US forces had actually FOUND WMDs in Iraq, or even more amazingly believed that Iraq had actually USED WMDs against us.
Oh sweet babbling kee-rist, not these Michael Moore lame talking points again....yes, I am quite sure some Fox News viewers were convinced WMD's had been found in Iraq, but so what? Are you as concerned about the stunning ignorance on display by mainstream-media BS gobbling liberals?
Like when tens of millions of liberals believed with all of their hearts that when Dan Rather and Mary Mapes lied and conspired to trash the president with FORGED national guard memos in order to affect the outcome of the 2004 election, that it was the truth? It wasn't, it was a lie, and liberals fell for it in a big way.
Or when the same millions, when told by the MSM about the infamous "Downing Street Memo" didn't realize, because they weren't completely informed, that the memo was actually the minutes of a meeting, and contained the OPINION of one intelligence officer. Yet lefties and liberals from sea to shining sea were convinced it was a Watergate-type of "smoking gun."
Or when the NY Times lies about Katrina victims being "denied" federal aid (bAD mr. Bush, BAD!) only to find out later that the reason the government was denying them aid was that they con artists who never lived in New Orleans.
Or when MSNBC routinely, night after night, incorrectly referred to Valerie Plame as an "outed covert operative" when they knew she wasn't covert at all, nor did the media do anything more than give a passing reference to the fact that Joe Wilson was called a liar to his face by the 9/11 commission.
But what does truth matter to the mainstream media when there's a Republican president in the whitehouse? Not one whit, obviously. It is far more important to the mainstream media to bring up Bush's low poll numbers than to talk about 18 quarters of record economic growth. It's far more important for the mainsream media to blame Bush for high gas prices than it is to mention that unemployment is lower than the average unemployment rate of the 1990's. It is far more imporant for the mainstream media to obssess over a "mission accomplished" sign and a flight suit than it is to report accurately on the historic, world-transforming march of democracy that is taking hold in Iraq.
Free clue - Fox News ain't perfect, but people watch Fox News because they know in advance that what they're gonna get from ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC is not independent, objective news but Bush bashing lies, half-truths, ommissions, and kooky left-wing editorializing.
