Fox News

Not too long ago, Fox News decided to epic trolling Muppet fans by suggesting Kermit and co. were actually a tool for teaching kids an “anti-capitalist,” liberal agenda. Stupid. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Well, the Muppets were in England promoting their latest movie, when a reporter happened to ask Kermit and Miss Piggy about the incident. [...]

Look, I get that everybody makes mistakes.  They happen.  Here, there, everywhere.  But if you’re a professional news organization (and some would debate that Fox News is just that), wouldn’t it behoove you to double check your infographics before going live. Especially if the United States has spent the past eight years in a war [...]

No word yet, on if hell has frozen over, if the fat lady has sung, or indeed if the world was ending. Regardless, here’s a bunch of Fox News commentators talking about Sarah Palin’s new reality show while on a commercial break. And by “talking” I mean laughing about how bad it is. This is [...]

“His remarks on The O’Reilly Factor this past Monday were inconsistent with our editorial standards and practices, and undermined his credibility as a news analyst with NPR,” the statement read. Williams, who had been working for both NPR and Fox News, admitted on The O’Reilly Factor that he was “worried” and “nervous” about getting on a [...]

The Farce of Fox News

by James Furbush on August 25, 2010

It just gets more ridiculous with every passing day.  As if their $1 million donation to the RNC wasn’t enough. The Daily Show With Jon Stewart Mon – Thurs 11p / 10c

Much different than what Fox News aired on television, and a more clear picture that Jon Stewart, a comedian, could perhaps be the last sane voice in news television.  A sad realization indeed.  I detest the thought of driving viewers to Fox News and hence increase their advertising revenue, so it’s embedded in full above.  [...]

Fox versus the White House

by James Furbush on October 12, 2009

Oh it’s on!  Anita Dunn, the White House communications director: “We’re going to treat them [Fox News] the way we would treat an opponent. As they are undertaking a war against Barack Obama and the White House, we don’t need to pretend that this is the way that legitimate news organizations behave.”

How they do it

by James Furbush on March 17, 2009

Fox news took footage from September of Joe Biden quoting John McCain saying the fundamentals of the economy were strong, and used it as a sign that Democrats are now singing a different tune on the economy. After the segment, Fox News’s Martha MacCallum said, “All right, well the mantra for the weekend is clear, [...]

There was a harmless anti-war protest Sunday afternoon in Denver.? The protesters named themselves Recreate 68, you know, except without all the violence and stuff.? So this time around they were marching around and Fox News sent in their most inept correspondent.? No one would grant him an interview, which means that the protesters are [...]

Faux News aired the first of two presidential documentaries on Monday night called “Character and Conduct.” I haven’t seen the Barack Obama documentary. However, the guys over at 23/6 have condensed the video into a 60-second clip and obviously skewed it to show Faux’s bias. The “documentary pretends really hard that it’s not full of [...]
