How FOX news distorts a story to keep the drones in line....

Sadly, too many low-information Obama supporters are all too happy to have him violate their constitutional rights as long as he looks good doing it.

That's an interesting way to frame it. As the originator of the saying, you should trademark it as I could see in the world of narratives where that might be useful.

The brain dead sheeples that criticize "Faux" news refuse to look at the facts and that Fox reports real news, more so than main stream media or the frothing at the mouth liberal MSNBC. They refuse to face the facts and not once will they ever give an example of a news story where Fox lied about anything. It certainly does have a conservative slant but far more balanced than the rest which are nothing but liberal tools of Obama.
Need an example? Here's one.
Google; Madison, palm trees.
Spent 5 years at UW and have never seen the rows of palm trees that FOX shows in their story.
Wow that's some big lie you've caught onto . Almost as bad as forging records 30 days outside with election to sway the results.

goes to show you, lefties only want to be spoon feed what they want to hear.

Here's a fun site to answer all your questions about FOX NEWS LIES...

The "news" channel that photoshops pictures to make crowds look bigger at orielly rallies, hannity rallies, glen beck rallies and ROMNEY rallies....

The "news" channel that went to court and argued that it was OK to lie on the air because the first amendment guarantees them that right. The channel that DISTORTS every story it can get its hands on because Old white people "like it that way".

Obama DOJ formally accuses journalist in leak case of committing crimes | Yet another serious escalation of the Obama administration's attacks on press freedoms emerges - The Guardian

Under US law, it is not illegal to publish classified information. That fact, along with the First Amendment's guarantee of press freedoms, is what has prevented the US government from ever prosecuting journalists for reporting on what the US government does in secret. This newfound theory of the Obama DOJ - that a journalist can be guilty of crimes for "soliciting" the disclosure of classified information - is a means for circumventing those safeguards and criminalizing the act of investigative journalism itself. These latest revelations show that this is not just a theory but one put into practice, as the Obama DOJ submitted court documents accusing a journalist of committing crimes by doing this.

All traditional media formats are loosing viewers/listeners so this suggests to me that the American people in growing numbers are giving up the "spoon feeding" of controlled opposition that is the political narrative in this country.

Going further, from Mother Jones:


Is the Government Spying on Reporters More Often Than We Think?

Thanks Cheryl.
Expressed much better than my too brief attempt ... sometimes being concise is not good.

NY Times and Washington Post printed the "leaked" stores the White House wanted released and of course were never critical of Obama. That is the difference. According to the Justice Dept its only illegal if it is critical of the Administration ( regardless of what the Constitution and Supreme Court rulings say ).

Amazing the willful blindness of a leftist partisan hack.

The only reason Fox News exists is because of the monopoly a liberally biased mindset has had on all major news media before 1980 and the birth of FN! Do be hating Fox you dope. Hate your own foolish partisan mindset - because that's why it's here.

FOX news has been all over the "phone records" seizures of reporters and the "STORY" to FOX news is an abuse of power by the administration. The drones go along with this type of "reporting" even though its not the truth.

The best example is this.

First, FOX reports that the OBAMA administration SPIED on its reporter James Rosen by getting his phone records. They go on an on about an abuse of power and a loss of freedom, blah blah blah...BUT, the real story is completely different than this.

FOX NEWS VERSION:

Obama administration spied on Fox News reporter James Rosen: Report


But the REAL STORY IS SIMPLE. ROSEN BROKE THE LAW!
Fox News Reporter James Rosen May Face Criminal Charges for Reporting on the CIA

James Rosen will possibly face criminal charges for leaking confidential national security information to the public.

WHY does FOX do such a thing? Oh wait, I know, they are fair and balanced.

There is no such thing as unbiased journalism any more! Regardless of what network scratches your itchy ears! Good grief.
