It doesn't seem to care when Fox lies about everything else.

1. True dat.....
CNN is Fox's illegitimate sister...

They both lie, but Fox doesn't care if it gets caught so much.

CNN has a mainstream reputation left to defend, but for how much longer?

3. My thoughts exactly. CNN never calls Fox out on it's lies
about important issues, but as soon as the lie is about CNN, watch out. 24 hours later, they got an ad on the air.

- Lie about death panels . . . no problem
- Lie about Michelle Obama saying "whitey" . . . yawn
- Lie about President Obama's birthplace . . . so what
- Lie about the government wanting to kill your grandmother . . . who cares about grandma
- Lie about the number of teabaggers in D.C. . . . shrug
- Lie about CNN not covering the teabaggers in D.C. . . . OH NO YOU DIDN"T!!! BURN IN HELL, YOU MOTHERFUCKING LIARS!!! and here's an ad to further express our outrage about this travesty.

At least we can count on MSNBC, particularly Olbermann, Maddow and Schultz, for calling Fox out on its lies and propoganda about IMPORTANT stuff.

10. People on this board were giving major
props to CNN for calling FAUX out. Never mind that what CNN was objecting to was FAUX asserting that they hadn't covered the idiot fringe teabagger march in DC when they clearly had. I think it's shitty that they gave the wingnuts any time at all, especially considering that huge anti-war rallies received hardly any coverage. CNN isn't much better overall than the propagandists over at FAUX.
