"Did Fox News Lie? | Fox News Palm Trees Wisconsin"
Fox News has to be very careful to avoid even the appearance of manipulating the news.
Their competitors (I'm being polite) are just waiting to jump on the slightest thing...

Jon Bershad writes about this recent Internet "chatter item":
"The Internet is abuzz this morning with a story that Fox News has 'lied' in showing a video of an angry union protester from California while claiming its from Wisconsin. The 'Palm Tree lie' (described as such because the tropical trees in the background of the protest video are used as proof of the deception) was the top two stories on Reddit’s Politics board this morning. They needn’t have tried so hard. While, in the 43-second clip that’s being linked to on YouTube, it does look like Fox News lied, but watching the entire segment for context makes it clear that they did not.
The segment in question occurred during The O’Reilly Factor as Bill O’Reilly was discussing the anger in the union protests."

O'rielly, what a joke, didn't he say "video comes in video comes out never a miscommunication". Why is it that so many follow this liar? It looks like that the top republican candidates for president will be coming from "Fake News/ Fox News", or should I say "Big Business", how funny. I wonder if "Fake News" has a stable for likely republican supreme court justices (I am sure they will all attend the republican state of the union, unlike Antonin Scalia, Samuel Alito, and Clarence Thomas, scum bags).
