Fox News again accused of airing misleading video
Thu Nov 19, 3:36 pm ET

For the second time in just over a week, Fox News is coming under fire
for misusing old news footage. The latest flap is leading some people
to charge that the cable news network is intentionally misleading its
audience, while Fox claims a "production error."

Wednesday's incident occurred when Fox News host Gregg Jarrett
mentioned that a Sarah Palin appearance and book signing in Grand
Rapids, Michigan had a massive turnout. As footage rolled of a smiling
and waving Palin amidst a throng of fans, Jarrett noted that the
former Republican vice-presidential candidate is "continuing to draw
huge crowds while she's promoting her brand-new book,'' adding that
the images being shown were "some of the pictures just coming in to
us.... The lines earlier had formed this morning."

However, the video used in the segment was from a 2008 McCain/Palin
campaign rally. In response to the minor uproar that arose after clips
of Jarrett's report hit the Internet, Fox senior vice-president of
news Michael Clemente issued an initial statement saying, "This was a
production error in which the copy editor changed a script and didn't
alert the control room to update the video."

On Thursday afternoon, Fox News issued an on-air apology delivered by
host Jane Skinner:

Yesterday we told you about Sarah Palin kicking off her book tour and
then we spoke to Sean Hannity about an interview that he did with
former Governor Palin. When introducing the segment we showed you
footage of people lining up in Michigan for a book signing that
evening. In the tease before the segment, the tease to commercial, we
told you how those people were already lining up to meet Palin. The
problem is we didn't show you the video we were actually referencing.
Instead we mistakenly aired what's called "file tape" of Sarah Palin.
We didn't mean to mislead anybody in that tease. It was a mistake, and
for that we apologize.

The current mishap comes on the heels of a controversy sparked last
week when footage from a conservative rally held over the summer was
played on "Hannity" during a segment on a more recent rally. During
the clip, host Sean Hannity marveled over the large turnout for a
Washington, DC protest. The Daily Show later pointed out that there
seemed to be some inconsistencies with the video shown on Hannity's
show, namely that the atmospheric conditions seemed to vary from shot
to shot. Hannity later apologized on the air for what he called "an
inadvertent mistake."

Keep it up, Palin is enjoying all the fee publicity. It will certainly help
with voter recognition in the 2012 election.

your slant is JUST SO OBVIOUS? New shows do so for ratings good or bad
thats what they do, Fox is Far better than so many others but is still
in it for that! When you start holding the MOOK DEM SUPPORTING ONES

No, it is not ok. Since you imply that an opposing network has "forged
official Government documents" show us where that happened.

HOwever you leave out any of the wacko right politicians and this thread
is on network television that received a federal license which requires
truth, not distortion of reality: "As public trustees, broadcasters may
not intentionally distort the news. Broadcasters are responsible for
deciding what their stations present to the public. The FCC has stated
publicly that “rigging or slanting the news is a most heinous act against
the public interest.” The FCC does act to protect the public interest
where it has received documented evidence of such rigging or slanting."

Further, "The broadcast by a station of false information concerning a
crime or catastrophe violates the FCC's rules if: the station licensee
knew that the information was false, broadcasting the false information
directly causes substantial public harm, and it was foreseeable that
broadcasting the false information would cause such harm.

The focus here is Fox "News". And from licensee rules and regulations
could lose their broadcast license for intentionally lying. Your segue
into politicians is a good topic but misplaced here.

All this does is add more proof that Fox is not a legitimate news
outlet. It's opinion and propaganda. It's the media arm of the
republican party. Everything that comes on that network has a goal to
it, tear down the Democratic party and Democrats in general and do
everything it can to get republicans elected to public office. The only
thing that bothers me about what they do is the lying. If they would
just admit what they are doing it would be okay. But they have to
pretend they are not pro republican. But what do you expect from an
outfit filled with conservatives? Lying is a way of life for them so
that is what they give us.

I see a job possibility for you at Fox News. You were able to take a
prediction of the Obama administration regarding future job losses from
the worst recession since the 30s and turn that into "lying". The
economists working for the White House had economic models showing them
that unemployment would probably not go much past eight percent. Time
has passed and it turns out the recession is even worse than expected
and their estimate was off by 2%. You have turned that 2% miss in the
economic forecast into a lie. Like I said, that kind of bullshit
qualifies you for Fox News. I'd put in an application if I was you. You
really know how to turn a mountain into a molehill. Now if you can do
the even harder part, which is making republican blunders look like
successes you'll be working at Fox in no time.

Gunner hasn't had strings on his racquet for 20 years. The ball keeps going

It reminds him of his younger days, when he was a star on the international

I know I am not talking to one now.

A REAL conservative would be working overtime fixing the Republican
Party instead of playing the blame game with the winning opposition
Party.

I see few of the wagging winger tongues here pushing for true reform
in the Republican Party.

Palin is a perfect example...let's parade a pair of aging tits around
and see if the old fat white men reach for their Viagra.

Make serious changes and then the American voter will take you
seriously.

Now they are laughing at you...just like I am.

Not just neocons but religionists, Republicans and Democrats alike. They
were force fed lies until quaking in fear. Fear drove them to commit
acts of violence. Fear drove them to fabricate strawmen to attack. Fear
caused them to torture. Fear caused them to attack we who disagreed.
Fear caused them to eat their own. Fear caused them to destroy our
country.

Fear has morphed into embarrassment. Now they are embarrassed at having
been punked. Embarrassed at their actions. Embarrassed of their
leaders. Embarrassed for their lies. Embarrassed that their programs
failed so miserably. Embarrassed that they destroyed our economy.
Embarrassed for their failures.

So they attempt to distract, divert, misdirect and lie their way out of
multiple embarrassments making the situation even worse. "More of the
same, even nuttier" is their war cry.

Crazymotherfuckers, one and all. Note the correlation between Bushbots,
neocons, Republicans, the Bush Administration and crazymotherfuckers.
It's close to a 1:1 correlation. The crazymotherfuckers *BELIEVE*
therefore it is true. No critical thinking needed.

Crazymotherfuckers. Whether it be lies, superstition or belief makes no
difference. They make shit up, fear their made up shit and behave like
barbarians. Stop giving them credulity by discussing their fantasies.

Give them what they deserve, ridicule. Ridiculous crazymotherfuckers.

Well said. Critics who want "more of the same only nuttier" have no
founding in reality. They continue to push the same superstitions and

You mean to tell me that Fox can't get away with releasing false, misleading
"News". Would this be because there are so many that know the truth that
they can't get away with a lie? But yet you believe that the early
Christians were able to make up whatever they wanted in a land full of
religious Jewish folk and it would be taken as Gospel truth. Come from the
dark side Luke while there is still time!

Enjoy!

March 2005: After the embarrassing scandal involving Dan Rather's use of
forged documents in a one-sided 60 Minutes hit piece aimed at President Bush
just before the 2004 presidential election, CBS announced Rather would leave
the CBS Evening News on March 9, 2005, a year earlier than planned. To mark
the end of Rather's liberal reign, the Media Research Center compiled The
Dan Rather Files, an exhaustive text and video

Daily Kos, HuffingtonPost, and Move-on are left wing leaning groups.
They're liberals and proud of it. They aren't hiding it. They don't
pretend to be middle of the road. Fox pretends they are an unbiased
middle of the road station. That makes all the difference in the world.
Everyone knows that everyone has some bias. The left wing sources don't
pretend they are something they are not. Fox is pretending. I'd say that
makes the liberals a lot more honest than Fox News. But that has been
obvious for a long time. Fox has been a shill for the republican party
for years. You have to be blind not to know that.

Bias? Buerste uses a biased source to bitch about bias while ignoring
accuracy entirely:

"Leaders of America's conservative movement have long believed that
within the national news media a strident liberal bias existed that
influenced the public's understanding of critical issues. On October 1,
1987, a group of young determined conservatives set out to not only prove
— through sound scientific research — that liberal bias in the media does
exist and undermines traditional American values, but also to neutralize
its impact on the American political scene. What they launched that fall
is the now acclaimed — Media Research Center (MRC)."

Is that what "Daily Kos", "The Huffington Post" and "MoveOn.org" told you?

Those goof balls never make sense. Their idea is that if you think
republicans are incompetent boobs and have made a mess of just about
everything they have touched you are a liberal. To them anyone
criticizing right wingers is automatically a flaming liberal and someone
that only goes to far left wing media sources. They think that because
that is what they do. Because they go nowhere but to Fox for all their
information they think anyone who disagrees with them goes to the left
wing sites. Even though most of us who hate the republicans have never
been to any of the far left sources. So even if you told them you don't
know those left wing sites they would never believe you.

Yep, Fox leans right. However, they report stories that you won't see
elsewhere because the Daily Kos, Huffington Post, Move-on, ABC, NBC,CNN,
MSNBC and such WON'T report anything that puts Democrats in a bad light.
So, the left has created an echo chamber that only spews the left's
propaganda. I read and watch them all, the left feels the need to silence
anyone or anything that doesn't follow their program in lockstep. Is that's
what you want, one side of everything? Then get that "Fairness Doctrine" in
place, bash FOX, shut down dissenting voices, attack those that disagree.
Mmmmm, how...progressive!

Sorry pal, but you got it wrong. What progressives want is the truth.
Nobody cares that Fox has a viewpoint. MSNBC has a viewpoint too, a
liberal one. They are not trying to fool anyone about that. As long as a
station says right up front where they are coming from I, and most
progressives, have no problem with that. We believe in a free
marketplace of ideas. But don't bullshit us. Fox is right wing and won't
admit it.

The problem is that as a purported news station they aren't supposed to
show a bias. Because of that most of them try to keep their political
views to a minimum. I think you would agree Fox isn't just a teeny weeny
bit right of center. If a station has a definite political leaning it
should say so. If it is trying to be neutral that's different. Right now
I would say CNN is the most neutral. Fox and MSNBC represent the
conservatives and liberals. But only Fox keeps saying they don't. It's
saying one thing while doing the opposite that aggravates people. Oh,
and if you think conservatives wouldn't like to disband the "liberal"
voices you're crazy.

See, that's your problem. You can't tell who is what. Fox is as far to
the right as any other station is to the left, farther actually. If you
can't see that Hannity and Beck are at least as far to the right as
Olbermann is to the left then you have a problem telling how far someone
is from the center. Olbermann is a full fledged liberal, that's true.
But most people on Fox are as far to the right as he is to the left. I
understand why you cannot tell that though. Here's a wild guess, your
biased toward Fox. Tell me that isn't your favorite news source.

All true but please let me highlight the critical distinction, that

That he holds the Fox reporters feet to the fire for lying infuriates
them. I love that. If the roles were reversed, I'd love that too.
Liars *should* be humiliated.

Again, to reiterate, the distinction between say Olbermann and Beck lies
not so much in their political position within the spectrum but the truth
of what they say. Beck lies, Olberman does not.
