FauxNews airs old footage to fool viewers

Its undeniable that Fox fucks up every once in awhile...and I DO mean undeniable.

the question is....

Do you seriously consider the above to be legitimate attempts to fool the public....?
Do you seriously think for one second that Fox made people believe that McCain or Toomey, etc. were Democrats?

thats ludicrous....(Laughable to you pinheads)

This is WAY beyond happenstance. It is reasonable that it could happen once or even twice, people make mistakes, but any competent 'news' organization would make SURE it didn't happen often. It would be a black eye, UNLESS it is used as a political statement. Which it IS...

Who: Ted Stevens
What was going on when he was mislabeled: Stevens was just found guilty of violating provisions of the Ethics in Government Act.
When: October, 2008

Look, I'm a fox viewer--or, I was, anyway-- and even I can see thast this was NOT A MISTAKE. It's not possible for that to be a mistake. Fox is globalist rightwing propaganda and the globalist are afraid of what Paul will do to their control grid so there is an organized effort to discredit Paul. Fox was running the meme that Paul is unelectable. 4 years ago, that was true. Today, it's no longer true. And they made a big "mistake" trying to pull this turd past us.

Excellent analysis.

It is all commentary now, and not news. You are right. Our local news does a good job of just reporting the facts, but they have a half hour time line, now with the 24 hour cable new, it is all commentary and not just delivery of the facts, it isn't just reporting, but opinions, and when I want someone's opinion I turn it on, but when I just want the news, I go online and I usually prefer foreign press to our own for news without opinion, although foreign opinion is very eye opening, also.

I hate my local news network. They talk to me like I have an IQ of 13.

You should subscribe to the BBC World and, because the ME is 'quite' important now, Al Jazeera, English. Between the two you will get some hard, and often unpleasant, facts.
I do not understand why all American News programmes are called 'Shows' as if they are Vaudeville or something. And, I'm sorry to say this that most, certainly not all, the anchors and journalists are bloody useless. If they dont have lisps then thay are obsessed with themselves and not the subject they are reporting.

I tried watching Al Jazeera, English, those freedom loving bastions of freespeech in my government have blocked it's transmission in my region.

Ron Paul told the truth during the debates in 2008, and Republican candidates like Giuliani and Mitten were beside themselves...knowing full well Ron Paul was telling the truth...but it doesn't 'play' well to the right wing base.

Come on Tinny....can you honestly say you're surprized at what Fox did? You know as well as I do that Ron Paul is very unpopular with establishment Republicans including our favorite propagandist at Fox News. I can assure you that from here till the Republican nomination Faux News will do everything in their power to undermine Ron Paul's candidacy. It almost makes me want to switch my party affiliation back to Republican so I can vote for Paul in the primaries.

Exactly...thats what makes it laughable to think they were consciously trying to fool anybody.....
Its asinine to believe FOX is so without talent that it can't put forward a more believable piece of propaganda if they were seriously trying to "fool" the public........
this kind of incompetence is to gross to NOT be accidental, at best...or an insider attempt at sabotage to discredit them, at worst...

It certainly didn't fool tinfoil, Bfgrn, or Mott, .... and they are some of our stupidest posters.....:palm::):palm: that will believe almost anything if it jives with they agenda....

Hey bravo, how many lies by Fox news will it take before you start asking questions? Your accusation is PURE projection. YOU are the one who will swallow until it's dripping down your chin.

I heard Ray McGovern, a retired CIA agent whose expertise was the old Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc countries say the propaganda coming out of Fox News is at the same level as Pravda. But I suspect most Russians knew Pravda was propaganda.

Wow, you just don't want to believe they intended to make it look like Paul is a kook. Fox ran countless programs slamming him as unelectable.

Whatever, pal. I can't make you drink the water

To think its a serious attempt to mislead me is ridiculous and defies common sense...

Thats the very kind on logic that makes you a pinhead.

Should I really give a shit what Ray McGovern thinks....???????????????

What crap....this is what your hero Mr. McGover had to say this week, as Hillary Clinton gave a speech on freedom...

As Clinton continued to speak about respecting the rights of protesters, her guards – including a uniformed policeman and an unidentified plain-clothed official – grabbed Ray, dragged him off violently, brutalized him, double-cuffed him with metal handcuffs, and left him bleeding in jail. As he was hauled away (see video), Ray shouted “So this is America?” Clinton went right on mouthing her hypocrisies without a pause."

Is he a friend of the left or friend of the right?....or just a bitter ass that has problems with his country's decisions in general...

You are a 'literal' idiot. Fox News labeled McCain a Democrat more than once.

They were making a political statement...if you cheat on your wife, suck guys dicks, are too willing to work across the isle, are the leading contender and not far right enough or found guilty of ethics violations, you are a (D)

Do you actually know anyone that was fooled by that mis-labeling....???

If they come on tonight an said Obama is a Republican, would you run around gathering evidence to convince yourself Obama is really a Democrat....would you be fooled ?


Forget that last question.....considering what we're talking about, you might fuckin' well just might be fooled....

It played well to me. I thought Giuliani looked like an asshole in that debate.

Why do you paint us here on the right wing with such a broad brush? And incorrect as well?

You don't seem to be able to understand conservatism at all.

I understand what Giuliani and Romney understood...it wouldn't play well to the GOP base. The fact that you diverge only proves even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while.

What about young people who may have never seen him before? And to cite the simple "mistake" of a D by the name -- which BTW happens quite often, eh? -- as the pinniacle of the offensive is ludicrous.

Fox news ran footage that was a year old and asked Paul to comment on the reaction of the crowd in the video while the context of the interview and the setup had refered to the current poll.

It's not a simple mistake. It's not even plausible as a "mistake"

If you're going to hide behind your strawman that somehow the D by a name is the focus of the thread, well, you win the prize!
