Fox news: coincidence or political motivated?

[taliey]

So there are limits to what FOX News will and won't say about President Obama?

Color me surprised.

[Drsolders]

Actually, it was a local affiliate, not the actual Fox News. The guy in charge of it also publicly apologized for the error since he was working really fast and accidents happen. I know this will turn into a circle jerk, but keep this mind before you guys get off.

this is.......... fucking hilarious...
Could have been at SNL.
I had a good laugh.

Who in there right mind would attack the president and look stupid at the same time?

Well fox news does that all the time, but I concur that in this case it was just a mistake.

Entirely politicly motivated. How anyone thinks anything else is beyond me. Fox News is an extension of the Republican party.

Nothing else to be said - Faux "News" is precisely that - a version of the GOP misnomer machine.

If you've been paying attention lately, there isn't much difference anymore. Just fyi.

And in all objectiveness, this looks like an honest mistake. And a funny one to boot, as no one, not even the Obama-is-a-Muslim-Socialist crowd would believe this.

Sure in some of them, they lean towards fox. However, many are just local news stations who wouldn't be running without fox funding them. They actually tend to be pretty decent stations, completely different from Fox news. You are right, some are just the same, but if this was actually fox news they would most likely have defended it.

It is an honest mistake, I hope the guy doesn't get fired of things that happen all time. Hell my local stations often get backdrops screwed up, but never "the president is a rapist" and more of, we still have the victory in Iraq backdrops form 2004.

Yeah, it really does look pretty innocent. No name below or anything like that - just some poor sap who put a photo in the wrong order. He should be just fine, but considering how completely fucked up the media is in general (must "make" news for rating/$$$ no matter what!) he more than likely will lose his job. Hope not though.

uhm the local fox news channels aren't owned by rupert murdoch.

[Kuntantee]

My brother is a systems engineer in a broadcasting company. The images are queried from a database and the texts are attached on the fly. The anchorwoman said "no charges" when in fact obama images was queried and same words were put in. This is not a mistake.

[Charge me Doctor]

You shouldn't claim actions malice if you can explain them by stupidity.

[kyoloco]

lol at people who think democrats and republicans are on their side

[Fugus]

I won't lie, Fox news is a messed up company that has lied through their teeth and misled plenty on their news for a political spin, but this I would file under mistake or possibly disgruntled employee joke on his way out the door more than anything. And more than likely, just a mistake.

Fun fact, disney has made an even bigger mistake one time when they messed up and aired about 6 minutes of porn on the disney channel during Lilo and Stitch.

[Flutterguy]

Someone needs to post the clip of the Nashville Predators broadcast where you can hear porn in the background and the broadcasters trying hard to pretend they don't hear it.

[Korgoth]

Its not Fox News, how dimwitted do you have to be to not understand the difference between a national cable network and Fox 5 San Diego...

Its San Diego too, ill bet you a shiny quarter its a liberal leaning Fox station like the one up in here in Nor Cal.


Also is this whole thread just an epic troll to get people to post about Fox News when the link is not Fox News, knowing that just labeling a thread Fox News will get you the same canned responses.

[Graeham]

Every mainstream media outlet is guilty of being very biased and politically motivated. It's scary that some people are only just working that out now or deny such a thing completely.
