Fact vs. Fox-tion

[illbill]

<snip>One of the leading media corporations that advocated for a U.S. invasion of Iraq was News Corp and its subsidiary Fox Television. Rupert Murdoch's Fox News acted as a megaphone for the Bush Administration's march to war. Over and over Fox News' hosts and contributors made misleading comments - many of which have been proven to be 100% false. The question now is whether or not Fox hosts and contributors will admit they were wrong and apologize to their viewers for giving them unfair and unbalanced information.<snip>

2. I'm still waitng for that O'Reilly apology

From the piece:

In March of 2003, O'Reilly told Good Morning America viewers that "if the Americans go in and overthrow Saddam Hussein and it's clean, he has nothing, I will apologize to the nation, and I will not trust the Bush administration again."

3. Keep waiting. Just like GW, O'Lielly would never apologize for anything

Faux should be held accountable but it doesn't bother me one way or another. Faux isn't news, it's entertainment masquerading as news. It is just one long yap box. Any station with O'Lielly, Rivera, Coulter, and Insanity as serious commentators/reporters can only be one big joke.
